Descrizione

The marks that early-modern readers left on the margins of printed copies of Sallust’s De coniuratione Catilinae and Bellum Jugurthinum (manuscript comments, maniculae, and other marginalia), and the bibliographic codes that history books acquired during the 16th and 17th centuries point to a form of reading that privileged either the rhetorical aspects of the works, or the political and moral aspects of the stories, or both. This article analyzes some of these practices within the global framework of the reading of historical texts, dealing more precisely with the ways readers annotated the speeches interspersed in the two monographs, and the specific layout that printers used for the orations. The distinct nature of speeches, where the more “elevated” style allowed for the use of sententiae and for a heavily marked rhetorical structure, facilitated these types of readings.
