Description: The papers of Augusto Campana at the Biblioteca Civica Gambalunga in Rimini include a thus far unpublished correspondence with Scevola Mariotti on Epigr. Bob.63. In 1963, Campana published a major study on that poem, in which he did not develop some of the insights that he had privately shared with Mariotti. This paper includes an edition of the earliest letter by Campana (Rome, 1 July 1958), in which he made some important remarks on the transmission of Cic. Scaur. 4 and its relationship with Epigr.  Bob. 63, with a special focus on the name of its protagonist, Theombrotus. These comments are of special signifi-cance to the reconstruction of the codex deperditus that contained the Bobbio collection. [Author]
