Description: [Abstract dal sito della rivista] This article aims to demonstrate the relationship between diagrammatic glossing and the interpretation of the text of the Rhetorica ad Herennium in the eleventh to thirteenth centuries. Using four manuscripts containing marginal diagrammatic notations to the text, the article shows how the pseudo-Ciceronian manual was first read through the lens of De inventione, with cross-referencing between the two texts common, while in the later period the diagrams tended to summarise the text as given, using mnemonic techniques such as division and enumeration to prompt and formulate the diagrams. In so doing, the article shows how diagrammatic glossing is a valuable alternative to textual glossing, and an important knowledge management device.
