L'articolo discute la possibilità di adattare il concetto mazzariniano di 'democratizzazione della cultura' (nei due sensi di 'democratizzazione ascendente e discendente') alle iscrizioni metriche tardoantiche, soprattutto (ma non solo) cristiane. La presenza di nuovi modelli, di nuovi destinatari e di nuovi vettori culturali testimonia l'emergere di un nuovo linguaggio rispetto alla tradizione classica, spesso appare assorbita in modi non canonici ed 'erronei' in iscrizioni che non si esiterebbe a definire 'popolari', considerato il loro carattere centrifugo e innovativo rispetto alla paideia greco-romana. L'importanza di assumere il modello mazzariniano risiede anche nella possibilità di valutare la produzione di iscrizioni metriche secondo un approccio non più legato a giudizi di valore sulla base delle norme classiche. La paideia classica diviene cioè non il metro di misura, ma il sostrato su cui si innestano le spinte eccentriche (democratizzazione ascendente), e il cui prestigio continua a essere recepito in contesti 'bassi' o provinciali (democratizzazione discendente). ; The present paper focuses on the possibility to adapt the concept of 'democratisation of the culture', introduced by Santo Mazzarino, to the metrical inscriptions (mainly Christians) of late antiquity. The presence of new models and of new agents in the diffusion of culture is here considered against the background of classical paideia, which was often absorbed in uncanonical or even 'erroneous' ways in inscriptions that we might define 'popular' especially for their 'centrifugal' and innovative features. The adoption of Mazzarino's model will also allow us to consider metrical inscriptions according to a different interpretive model, and one not necessarily related to classical norms. From this perspective, classical paideia should be considered not as the fixed norm of aesthetic values, but rather as a common ground on which centrifugal innovations were inserted (ascending democratisation) and whose social prestige continued to be important in lower and provincial contexts (descending democratisation).

"Many of the women whose names are known to history from Classical Athens were metics or immigrants, linked in the literature with assumptions of being 'sexually exploitable.' Despite recent scholarship on women in Athens beyond notions of the 'citizen wife' and the 'common prostitute,' the scholarship on women, both citizen and foreign, is focused almost exclusively on women in the reproductive and sexual economy of the city. This book examines the position of metic women in Classical Athens, to understand the social and economic role of metic women in the city, beyond the sexual labor market. This book contributes to two important aspects of the history of life in 5th century Athens: it explores our knowledge of metics, a little-researched group, and contributes to the study if women in antiquity, which has traditionally divided women socially between citizen-wives and everyone else. This tradition has wrongly situated metic women, because they could not legally be wives, as some variety of whores. Author Rebecca Kennedy critiques the traditional approach to the study of women through an examination of primary literature on non-citizen women in the Classical period. She then constructs new approaches to the study of metic women in Classical Athens that fit the evidence and open up further paths for exploration. This leading-edge volume advances the study of women beyond their sexual status and breaks down the ideological constraints that both Victorians and feminist scholars reacting to them have historically relied upon throughout the study of women in antiquity"--
