Abstract
This chapter examines Filelfo’s 'Oratio de laudibus illustris Karoli Gonzagae', the speech he wrote in 1449 to celebrate the confirmation of Carlo Gonzaga’s appointment as Capitano del Popolo in Milan. Written in the intricate scenario of the Ambrosian Republic, this not very well known oration reveals Filelfo’s political commitment in the turbulent circumstances of the internal conflict within the city. The analysis of the text and the investigation of its connections with Filelfo’s 'Carmina', epistles, and other important speeches allow us to trace the evolution of the humanist’s political thought as informed by a burgeoning princely ideology, which was framed by pivotal classical models. The fertile interplay among the literary sphere of oratory, historiography, and poetry uncovers the crucial role played by the historia in Filelfo’s literary output and in the process of building up his political theory as based on the new humanist figure of the ideal princeps.
