Letture di Temistio tra il XIV e il XV secolo

This paper aims to complete the survey of all extant witnesses of Themi- stius, orationes IV-V-VII-IX-X (a corpusculum of late antique origin), by means of analysis and collation of the text transmitted by four mss. which contain excerpts or single speeches: namely mss. Heidelberg, Universitätsbibliothek, Pal. gr. 129 (K); Torino, Biblioteca Nazionale Universitaria, B.V.33 (T); Firenze, Biblioteca Riccardiana, 12 (E); Paris, Bibliothèque nationale de France, gr. 2967 (c). A brief description of the manuscripts is provided and their relationships with other wit- nesses of Themistius’ speeches are established; hence the four mss. find place in the stemma codicum drawn up by the author in a previous work. Finally, the re- sults of new research about some important witnesses of Themistius’ speeches are presented: in particular, most of the manuscripts appear to have beeen copied and studied during the Palaeologan Period (XIII-XIV century), between Thessaloniki and Constantinople.
