Gesuita, fu legato da amicizia e stima intellettuale al suo maestro Bernardino Stefonio, divenuto famoso per la creazione della ""tragedia cristiana"" e considerato il più importante drammaturgo della storia teatrale della Compagnia di Gesù. Dopo la messa in scena delle due tragedie latine dello Stefonio, il Crispo e la Flavia, fu il Galluzzi che si occupò di trarre le conclusioni teoriche del successo ottenuto; nel 1621, pubblicò il trattato Virgilianae vindicationes et Commentarii tres de tragoedia, de comoedia et elegia che, basandosi sui lavori dello Stefonio (nei quali si fondevano i valori estetici di origine umanistica con quelli della sensibilità cristiana), diventò una vera e propria poetica ufficiale dell'Ordine.

Jesuit, he was linked by friendship and intellectual esteem to his teacher Bernardino Stefonio, who became famous for the creation of the ""Christian tragedy"" and considered the most important playwriter in the theatrical history of the Society of Jesus. After the staging of the two Latin tragedies by Stefonio, Crispo and Flavia, it was Galluzzi who took care of drawing the theoretical conclusions of the success achieved; in 1621, he published the treatise Virgilianae vindicationes et Commentarii tres de tragoedia, de comoedia et elegia which, based on the works of Stefonio (in which aesthetic values of humanistic origin were merged with those of Christian sensitivity), became a real official poetics of the Order.

pp. lxxxix, 463, (2) [Publisher's catalogue]. Illustrated with a map. Mildly XLib. XLib stamps in blind. 8vo. Original full orange cloth binding. Gilt lettered spine. Binding slightly worn. Hardbound. First published in 1867. "Francis Parkman (1823-1893) is best known as a historian, and particularly as author of The Oregon Trail: Sketches of Prairie and Rocky-Mountain Life, and his monumental seven volume France and England in North America. These works are considered masterpieces of both history and literature. He was also a horticulturist, briefly a Professor of Horticulture at Harvard University. In 1846, Parkman travelled west on a hunting expedition, where time living with the Sioux tribe, at a time when they were struggling with some of the effects of contact with Europeans, such as epidemic disease and alcoholism. This experience led Parkman to write about American Indians with a much different tone from earlier, more sympathetic portrayals represented by the "noble savage". Writing in the era of "Manifest Destiny", Parkman believed that the conquest and displacement of American Indians represented progress, a triumph of "civilization" over "savagery", a common view at the time. A scion of a wealthy Boston family, Parkman had enough money to pursue his research without having to worry too much about finances. His financial stability was enhanced by his modest lifestyle, and later, by the royalties from his book sales. He was thus able to commit much of his time to research, as well as to travel. He travelled across North America, visiting most of the historical locations he wrote about, and made frequent trips to Europe seeking original documents with which to further his research. Parkman's accomplishments are all the more impressive in light of the fact that he suffered from a debilitating neurological illness, which plagued him his entire life, and which was never properly diagnosed. He was often unable to walk, and for long periods he was effectively blind, being unable to stand but the slightest amount of light. Much of his research involved having people read documents to him, and much of his writing was written in the dark, or dictated to others." AMERICANA BOX 3
