Résumé
As founder of Christian hymnody, Ambrose stands at the background of Marcantonio Flaminio’s Carmina de rebus divinis (1550). While relying completely on the Ambrosian metrical (iambic) pattern mediated by the medieval tradition, Flaminio’s writing moves away from this model and turns to be highly subjective. As we move on into the Carmina’s collection, a lyrical meditation unfolds and intensifies, which focuses on Christ and takes on “Lutheran” undertones. This accounts for the doctrinal ambiguity of the poems, as Flaminio was close to some Italian dissident groups. But does it make this poetry emanate from the Reform? The answer may lie with the dedicatory material and especially with the editorial shaping of the work after Flaminio’s death, which shows how Ambrose’s memory could become controversial, as it was subtly reshaped and set to a new context.
