Abstract: Between 1699 and 1707 Giambattista Vico, professor of rhetoric at the Royal University of Naples, gave six lectures in Latin on the occasion of the inauguration of the academic year. These are orationes of exceptional importance, and offer a precious source about the method and thought of the great philosopher.

The digital edition reproduces the text of the idiographic manuscript (Naples, National Library “V. Emanuele III”, XIII B 55) of the Lectures given by Giambattista Vico.
