In the \u003ci\u003eLamia\u003c\/i\u003e he proposes a rethinking of philology's ontological status: philology as a science and encyclopedia of tropes. Such a critical frame-of-mind informs the major poetic writings. In the \u003ci\u003eStanze, \u003c\/i\u003e Poliziano employs the trope of metalepsis as a means of both grounding a dialectic with the past, and reinventing a literary language.
