| Comment | According to Luzzatto (2000: 653), this manuscript consists of three parts: "- Aa1 (ff. 1-26), in minuscola inclinata imitativa di restauro, della fine del secolo XIII, copia facsimile di un corrispondente spezzone perduto di Aa che era corredato di note autografe di G. Tzetzes. - Aa2 (ff. 27-238), in minuscola inclinata sicuramente posteriore alia data di Ab e precedente alle note di G. Tzetzes (circa 1160). Copia facsimile di un corrispondente spezzone perduto di Ab. - Ab (ff. 239-376), in minuscola calligrafica diritta degli inizi del X secolo. In origine anche i ff. 1-238 erano scritti come Ab." Bértola (2022: 346, n. 37): "The date of the manuscript is in fact still a matter of debate, especially the issue of its stratigraphy. On palaeographic and codicological grounds, there is a consensus that the manuscript has two main parts (ff. 1-238 and ff. 239-376). Now, it remains an open question whether both parts are dated to the same period or the first is later and archaizing, and whether the first 26 folios represent yet a third stratum. Luzzatto supports the latter, whereas Cantore proposes that the first half (ff. 1-238) has been annotated after a collation with a manuscript from the Roman family of Herodotusí textual tradition". Many marginal scholia and interlinear glosses can be found in the first folios. Bértola (2022: 347, n. 38): "Luzzatto (...) and Cantore (...) maintain that one single hand from the Palaeologan period copied all these notes in the first 34 folios (or 26 according to Luzzatto), but in fact there seem to be many similar and contemporary Palaeologan hands filling these margins." |
