In 'Sperone Speroni and the Debate over Sophistry in the Italian Renaissance' Teodoro
Katinis mines a number of little or unstudied primary sources and offers the first
book on the rebirth of ancient sophists in the Italian literature of the 15th and
16th century, from Leonardo Bruni to Jacopo Mazzoni, with a focus on the Italian writer
and philosopher Sperone Speroni (1500-1588). Katinis convincingly proves that Speroni
is a unique case of early modern thinker who explicitly rejected Plato?s demonization
and defended the public role of the sophistic rhetoric, which enhanced the debate
over the sophistic arts and scepticism in a variety of fields and anticipated some
of the most revolutionary modern thoughts
