Summary

English summary: This volume explores the linguistic heritage of Florence's rich artisan ceramic industry, which was still active only a few years ago. Analyzing hundreds of specific terms for ceramicware, as well as traditional proverbs and sayings, this study explores life around the kiln while highlighting a unique aspect of Florentine society and its linguistic and working specificity. Italian text. Italian description: Frutto di accurate ricerche su documenti storici e di approfondite ricognizioni sul campo, il volume e un compendio del linguaggio usato nelle fornaci di terracotta tradizionali a produzione esclusivamente manuale, ancora vive fino a poche decine di anni fa nel contado intorno a Firenze. Analizzando i nomi di centinaia di prodotti di terracotta (tegoli, gronde, embrici, conche, orcioli, veggioli) e riportando modi di dire e detti proverbiali ormai in disuso, l'opera racconta gli aspetti della vita lavorativa all'interno dei forni, consentendo di riscoprire il patrimonio d'esperienze lasciate in eredita da generazioni di fornaciai che per la vita e la bellezza delle nostre citta hanno dato sudore e fatica. E permettendo non solo di valorizzare una realta specifica del territorio fiorentino, ma anche di ricostruire la storia di un popolo nella sua specificita linguistica e lavorativa. Con uno scritto di Matilde Paoli.
