After a brief survey of the rich reception of [Quintilian] throughout the Middle Ages, the contribution focuses on two key types of sources: the florilegia of classical authors, and the two extant medieval full rewritings of the Maiores (the so-called Excerpta Parisina and Excerpta Monacensia, both anonymous). Three florilegia are specifically taken into account, namely the Florilegium Galli- cum, the Florilegium Angelicum, and the Florilegium Morale Oxoniense; for all of them, the treatment of the original text and the relation with the direct tradition of the Maiores are considered. Also, the current stemmatic reconstruction of the transmission of the first two florilegia is challenged according to new evidence. In the last section of the paper, attention is called to the text of the Excerpta, which has not received any philological examination since 1905; and an attempt is made to collect and assess evidence pointing to the possible ascription of the Excerpta Parisina to Adelard of Bath.

Abstract
After a brief survey of the rich reception of [Quintilian] throughout the Middle Ages, the contribution focuses on two key types of sources: the florilegia of classical authors, and the two extant medieval full rewritings of the Maiores (the so-called Excerpta Parisina and Excerpta Monacensia, both anonymous). Three florilegia are specifically taken into account, namely the Florilegium Galli- cum, the Florilegium Angelicum, and the Florilegium Morale Oxoniense; for all of them, the treatment of the original text and the relation with the direct tradition of the Maiores are considered. Also, the current stemmatic reconstruction of the transmission of the first two florilegia is challenged according to new evidence. In the last section of the paper, attention is called to the text of the Excerpta, which has not received any philological examination since 1905; and an attempt is made to collect and assess evidence pointing to the possible ascription of the Excerpta Parisina to Adelard of Bath.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
