Descrizione

This article examines the transmission of Francesco Filelfo’s Consolatio ad Iacobum Antonium Marcellum de obitu Valerii filii, and concludes that a critical edition of the Consolatio should be based on the incunabulum of 1483/84, the only relevant witness reflecting Filelfo’s final redaction of the text. Its readings are to be weighed against other prime witnesses such as the dated manuscript Vat. lat. 1790, and Urb. lat. 1182, which originated in close proximity to the author and reflect most faithfully his orthographical preferences.
