Abstract

Guido Milanese, Sul commento boeziano ai Topici di Cicerone: un esperimento di filologia computazionale

Boethius's In Topica Ciceronis was very influential and widely read and studied in Medieval scholarship. A modern critical edition is still a desideratum. This research shows that, using the appropriate tools, it is possible to reduce the manual work of collation / comparison, produce a draft of a critical apparatus, therefore making a critical edition of a work witnessed by many manuscripts a realistically feasible project.
