Program
COURSE MAIN TOPICS
The first part (12h) of this course deals with general principles of philology and the Lachmann's method. Through the examination of some examples, students will learn how to distinguish errors from a variants and to build a stemma codicum.
The second part of the course (24h) is aimed at illustrating the particular problems found in the edition of Latin texts from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance (autographs and idiographs, author variants, editions). The reading and commentary of some significant passages of the De vera nobilitate by Poggio Bracciolini (1380-1459) are expected, accompanied by an illustration of the main topics concerning the textual tradition and its dynamics; this will allow students to have direct experience of the method applicable to the critical edition of a work that presents issues typical of the transmission of humanistic texts.
