Descrizione

St. Ambrose’s letter to emperor Valentinianus II is a report (relatio) of his diplomatic mission to Magnus Maximus, between 384 and 387. The text includes a narrative and a speech. On the basis of the theory of enunciation, the complicity between narrative and the bishop’s reported speech can be comprehend. Furthermore, speech-act theory is helpful for a correct evaluation of the performative force of the interrogative rhetoric utterances by which the reasoning is developed and strengthened.
