Descrizione: A ninth-century citation from Cicero’s Tusculan Disputations in MSStaatsbibliothek zu Berlin – Preussischer Kulturbesitz, 130 (hereafter Phillipps 1832), a collection of Bede’s scientific works and astronomical texts, offers perspectives on Carolingian humanism beyond philological acumen and text correction. The gloss also serves as a springboard to consider the complementarity of pagan and Christian learning as exemplified in the thought of John Scottus (Eriugena) and Lupus of Ferrières. An appendix explores the transmission of the Tusculans in the Carolingian age [Author]
