The first and most important aenigma of the Historia Apollonii regis Tyri is paradoxically the only one that remains unsolved in the whole story: neither it is actually explained by the protagonist nor it has yet received a definite answer by modern scholars. For this passage, on the contrary, the main commentaries provide only generic interpretations and/or different possible links to the main plot, rather than a real, convincing solution. This article proposes a new, simple explanation for the apparently inconsistent riddle, a solution some way “found in the books” and a possible “title” for it.

Abstract
The first and most important aenigma of the Historia Apollonii regis Tyri is paradoxically the only one that remains unsolved in the whole story: neither it is actually explained by the protagonist nor it has yet received a definite answer by modern scholars. For this passage, on the contrary, the main commentaries provide only generic interpretations and/or different possible links to the main plot, rather than a real, convincing solution. This article proposes a new, simple explanation for the apparently inconsistent riddle, a solution some way “found in the books” and a possible “title” for it.File in questo prodotto:
