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 (24 CFU) is aimed at illustrating the peculiar problems related to the edition of Mediaeval and Humanistic Latin texts (presence of autographs and idiographs, author variants, multiplicity of editions) through the analysis of exemplary cases. A monographic section will be dedicated to reading and commenting Petrarch’s epistle Ad posteritatem. The dynamics of the manuscript and printed tradition of the text and the ecdotic problems it poses will be illustrated; this will allow students to directly experience the method applicable to the critical edition of a work that presents problems typical of the textual transmission of Mediaeval and Humanistic texts.
As to the monographic section students will find:
Monographic section:
1) Texts, materials and digital resources prepared by the professor and uploaded on the e-learning platform
2) Materials uploaded on the e-learning platform
