Autore: Riesenweber, Thomas
Titolo: The History of the De Inventione text in Antiquity
Rivista/Miscellanea: «Ciceroniana On Line» VIII, 2, 2024
Editore: Société internationale des Amis de Cicéron & Centro di Studi Ciceroniani
Anno edizione: 2024
Pagine: 483-533
Parole chiave: Héritage - Fortuna - Legacy, Philologie - Filologia - Philology, Rhétorique - Retorica - Rhetorics
Descrizione: This article examines the value of the indirect tradition of Cicero’s De inventione for the reconstruction of the text. Using selected examples from Quintilian and Victorinus, it shows that the editors’ disdain for the testimony of the ancient readers that has prevailed for a good 150 years in our critical editions is unfounded. The article therefore argues in favour of an unprejudiced examination and evaluation of all existing textual witnesses on the basis of genealogical principles and text-immanent criteria.
