Abundancy, Redundancy, Cornucopia. Techniques of Amplification in Early Modern Epideictics (A05)

A05项目，在第二个资助阶段，将结合修辞学和语言学专业知识，研究意大利和德国早期现代流行病文本中的双曲放大技术。这些技巧在古典修辞学中通常被称为放大。A05侧重于特别明显、精心设计甚至夸张的放大形式；他们被理解为审美反思的形象。就文学和文化史而言，他们处于早期现代辩论运动（“诡辩”）的背景下，起源于意大利，是一种欧洲现象。

Project A05, which in the second funding phase will combine rhetorical and linguistic expertise, studies techniques of hyperbolic amplification in Italian and German epideictic texts of the early modern period. These techniques are generally known in classical rhetoric as amplificatio. A05 focuses on forms of amplification that are particularly marked, elaborate, or even exaggerated; they are understood as figures of aesthetic reflection. In terms of literary and cultural history, they are situated in the context of the early modern argutia movement ('sophistry'), which originated in Italy and is a European phenomenon.
