Bucolica Calpurnius Siculus Cesar Giarratano Semantically encoded edition New annotations and encoding by Samuel J. Huskey Hugh Cayless Digital Latin Library 2017 Library of Digital Latin Texts 1 Calpurnii et Nemesiani Bucolica, CaesarGiarratano, Naples, Detken et Rocholl, 1910 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ IV. Manuscripts: The Second Family (V) The second family, called V, includes a little more than twenty manuscripts, of which I have selected sixteen for my edition. They are as follows: Manuscripts in the Biblioteca Ambrosiana (Milan) α = Codex Ambrosianus O 74 sup., fifteenth century. A. Ceriani noted the readings of this manuscript for Schenkl, then I collated the entire manuscript in 1908, and I inspected it again in 1909. β = Codex Ambrosianus I 26 sup., fifteenth century. In 1909 I was the first to collate this manuscript, which was entirely unknown to previous editors. Then there are six Vatican manuscripts—namely Vaticanus 3152 and 2110, Urbinas 353, Palatinus 1652, Reginensis 1759, Ottobonianus 1466—that I collated in 1908, then inspected again in the following year. They are: Manuscripts in the Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana (Vatican City) γ = Codex Vaticanus 3152. μ = Codex Vaticanus 2110 ε = Codex Vaticanus Urbinas 353 π = Codex Vaticanus Palatinus 1652 χ = Codex Vaticanus Reginensis 1759. φ = Codex Vaticanus Ottobonianus 1466. Aside from the Codex Gaddianus (see above), another five manuscripts survive in Florence. I collated them in 1908, and I examined them again in 1909. They are: Manuscripts in Florence ν = Codex Laurentianus plut. 37,14. λ = Codex Laurentianus bibl. Aed. (“Edili”) 203. κ = Codex Riccardianus 724, formerly L IIII 10. ρ = Codex Riccardianus 636, formerly L IIII 14. I am astonished that Schenkl reported that this manuscript is designated as codex 363, especially since the scholar in charge of the Bibliotheca Riccardiana informed me that the manuscript of which we speak has never been designated with the number 363. I would not say any more about this unless Teuffel-Schwabe (Geschichte der römischen Literatur 5th edition, p. 748 ​, Schanz (Geschichte der römischen Literatur II.2, second edition, p. 74 ​, Skutsch (Calpurnius 119 RE 3: 1401ff. ​, and others, had not relied on Schenkl’s testimony and perpetuated the mistake. Calpurnius’ bucolic poetry includes such a large number of corrections and glosses added by various hands either in the verses themselves or in the margin that the various hands cannot always be distinguished among themselves. But that is as much as I will say, since I propose to discuss the annotations of Angeli elsewhere. ζ = Codex Riccardianus 974. Previous editors clearly did not know about this manuscript. I have added three other manuscripts, namely Gothanus 55 (= θ) and the two Wratislavienses Rehdigerani, I.4.10 (= η) and I.4.11 (= δ), but I have not inspected them personally. The description of the codex Gothanus below is derived from Wernsdorf’s description. I. G. Meusel collated the manuscript for Wernsdorf. The descriptions of η and δ are derived from the descriptions in Glaeser’s edtion. All of the manuscripts that I have assigned to the second family were copied from one book, which I will call V, or from a copy of it. The common origin of these manuscripts is attested not only by the omission or transposition of the same verses and words, but also by the great number of interpolations and errors that the other manuscripts lack entirely. But aside from these common faults, which were transmitted from the archetype, the individual manuscripts have many other errors unique to themselves. These books can be assigned to specific groups through careful comparison. For that reason, I do not want to linger on this subject, but I will advise that Riccadianus 724 and Vaticanus Reginensis 1759 are so similar to each other that you would rightly come to the following conclusions: that they were copied from the same book; that the Ottobonianus, Laurentianus pl. 37,14, the first Rehdigeranus (I.4.10), the Gothanus, and the editio princeps descended from the same copy of manuscript V on account of certain evidence; and finally that Vaticanus Urbinas 353 and the editio Veneta in 1472 are closely related by the tightest bonds of affinity. For the oldest editions are rightly thought to be reproductions of manuscripts (cfr. Sabbadini, p. 213 n. 5); moreover, the editio Veneta was printed before Fridericus de Veteranis transcribed the Codex Urbinas (cfr. Curcio, p. VIII). Finally, I add that I found the oldest edition of Calpurnius and Nemesianus in the Bibliotheca Riccardiana, recorded by no editor until now, place and year of publication unknown, currently bearing the number 498, which I can demonstrate by the strongest of arguments was copied from the manuscript Laurentianus pl. 37,14 before that manuscript underwent the corrections of the so-called second hand. If any one should collate all of the manuscripts of this family with care, he would easily know which readings are those of the archetype from which all of them originate, and which are owed to the copyists of the individual manuscripts. And so now it remains to compare V with N and G and to see what authority should be attributed to them. First of all, both families, but more often V, are marred with gaps in verses and words. Eleven verses are missing in V (Calp. 1.51, 7.32–34, 7.52–54, Nemes. 1.29, 2.83, 3.25, 3.30) and one verse has been made from the two verses Calp. 2.18–19. On the other hand, Calp. 1.42 is missing in N and G, and the following words have been omitted: Calp. 4.94 posito, 7.71 et, Nemes. 3.6 hanc pueri tamquam. Moreover, in N G Calpurnius 5.7 is placed before 5.6 and in V Calpurnius 5.67 is placed before 5.66. But since verses and supplied words have been passed down from antiquity and cannot be attributed to interpolators, the carelessness of copyists must not be blamed in these passages. But with regard to the words (h)anc pueri tamquam, which were omitted in N G even though there was space for them, the copyist, in my opinion, deliberately omitted them because he did not understand the writing in the archetype. N G and V differ in two hundred places or even more, but the readings correctly preserved in N G are almost two times greater than those in the second family. Moreover, what is even more interesting, nearly all of the corruptions that blemish N G are owed to the carelessness or ignorance of their copyists, but V quite often underwent interpolations. For example, there is no doubt that in N G the following passages drew their flaws from either the carelessness of a copyist or an abbreviation poorly understood: Calp. 1.28 tibi vili, 1.55 profuso, 2.14 affuerant, 2.23 hic, 2.80 numerat, 2.96 canale, 3.21 si, 3.36 o, 3.43 nunc, 3.46 quas, 3.84 tum, 4.2 patula, 4.31 fragra, 4.43 externo, 4.44 intra, 4.46 quicquam, 4.62 quoque, 4.76 hospicius, 4.106 panem, 4.112 primo, 4.124 raptas, 4.145 nos, 4.153 nunc, 5.6 vanaque, 5.28 vivat, 5.45 peragunt, 5.77 contrahit, 5.82 rara, 5.84 let(h)es, 5.117 sint(ne), 6.70 dabis, 6.76 hinc, 7.48 tibi, 7.57 esse, 7.65 (a)equoreis, 7.67 anne, 7.80 proprius, 7.82 obfuerat G offuerant N, Nemes. 1.11 et versu, 1.14 nam, 1.38 si sentire datur mi(t)tite, 1.42 novisti, 1.46 hic, 1.70 honor, 1.73 tunc N, 2.6 veneris, 2.45 rubensque, 2.50 cum, 2.73 vates fauni, 3.17 cepit fatus, 3.41 hoc, 3.51 vocabula cimbula, 3.57 cūcubitum N concubitum G, 4.10 animos (s exp.) G, arons N, 4.21 (h)erit-florem, 4.47 habunda(n)s, 4.58 annos. Glosses have been received into the text in the following passages: Calp. 1.5 molliter, Nemes. 1.49 mortali, 2.42 vini, 1.51 uvas. Also, litora Nem. 2.22 comes from the same word placed at the beginning of the verse, and visus Calp. 7.84 comes from the preceding verse. There are certainly some passages that you could trace back to an interpolator: Calp. 1.20 depicta, 1.24 altos, 1.25 codice, 1.87 a, 2.26 ibi, 4.82 canat, 4.152 olim-decurrent, 6.52 illa, 6.78 provocat ille, 7.6 in umbra, Nemes. 2.20 atque, 4.39 subeunt(e), but, from the perspective of the archetype, I would attribute even these passages, with one or two exceptions, to the ignorance or carelessness of a copyist. The same cannot be said about the archetype of the second family; indeed, things could not be more different. To say nothing of glosses received into the text, or words moved either because of the scribes’ mistake or judgment (cfr. Calp. 1.8–9, 2.4, 2.73, 3.74, 3.88, 4.76, 4.83, 7.83, Nemes. 1.72, 2.1, 2.23, 2.33, 2.40, 2.47, 2.76, 4.54), and other faults that you could explain in various ways, I have detected the following in particular in it, and it detracts greatly from its authority. I refer to a great abundance of interpolations that have arisen only out of a passion for making changes. And, just to dismiss the several passages that others have ascribed to the carelessness of copyists, there is no reason to doubt that the readings marshalled here are owed to an interpolator: Calp. 1.45 lusit, 1.64 revocet, 1.78 placidum or placidam radianti, 2.5 ulmos, 2.32 spargit, 2.65 fundere, 2.67 fore or fere, 2.82 novembri, 2.94 vocat, 3.16 spatiatus, 3.24 tu solus-Iolla es, 3.33 vagetur, 3.35 quod, 3.47 excusso dispergit, 3.48 destructa, 3.60 inops, 3.62 narrare, 3.69 nulla-lactis, 3.75 dubita, 3.95 ara, 4.10 munera, 4.14 dum, 4.16 proxima, 4.24 et, 4.35 pellere, 4.41 germani, 4.42 bactrus, 4.53 solum-noscere nimbos, 4.84 nunc, 4.87 te, 4.90 visurus, 4.125 ut quoque turba bono plaudat saginata magistro, 4.129 nonnullas-choreas, 4.131 exurdant or exundant, 4.132 lyaeo or simile quid, 4.137 nisi, 4.144 vivas et hunc, 4.146 terram, 4.151 sonant, 4.152 quam tenero, 4.155 contigerit, 5.2 arbore, 5.12 iamdudum or iampridem, 5.17 habitabit, 5.19 tota, 5.24 mittito clausos, 5.30 accedere, 5.34 messe fluat, 5.58 sine or sive, 5.61 seraeque-merendae, 5.65 coagula lactis, 5.77 corrodet, 5.79 porta, 5.80 ulceribus, 5.81 dura, 5.82 vini or vivi, 5.97 vinitor, 5.100 debes, 5.105 venit, 5.111 gelida, 5.116 stipulis et, 5.118 penetralia, 6.7 ut, 6.8 turpior, 6.9 te, 6.17 adesset, 6.22 vincere, 6.29 insta nunc, 6.30 praedam nactus, 6.38 lucent, 6.46 hunc ego qualemcumque vides in valle, 6.50 iugale, 6.71 lapillis, 6.75 ipse or ipsi, 6.79 merito nihil hic nisi, 6.82 te stante, 7.4 iam durior, 7.6 ardet, 7.21 certare, 7.30 contendit, 7.49 peragit, 7.59 nocticanam or nicticanam, 7.66 dignum, 7.68 venientibus, 7.69 nos, 7.71 latebris, 7.72 croceo, Nemes. 1.9 meam mihi care senectam, 1.13 stupuere, 1.25 modulantibus or modulatibus, 1.27 musam, 1.29 quercus, 1.37 calamos, 1.47 pelleret, 1.67 campo, 1.74 secuntur, 1.75 nascentur, 1.85 plena or plene, 2.3 furiata, 2.28 posset rapidos or rabidos, 2.30 lamberunt or biberunt, 2.37 Idas ille ego sum, 2.44 nigra, 2.71 cupiam, 3.19 qui quando, 3.20 odorato-capillo, 3.29 et vocat ad, 3.34 summas, 3.37 ostendit, 3.40 pueri, 3.45 udaque or nudaque, 3.47 hoc capit, 3.54 spumeus, 3.65 ingerit, 4.11 quos lusus or luxus, 4.17 vultum veniens, 4.24 tibi, 4.44 nactum or natum, 4.45 vertito, 4.47 fluens, 4.50 longa, 4.66 arsi. For these reasons the manuscripts of the second family cannot be neglected entirely, but they should be used with greatest caution.
Bibliography Manuscripts First family N = Codex Neapolitanus V A 8 Naples Biblioteca Nazionale di Napoli V A 8 380 1–36ʳ contain Cato’s De Agricultura; 20–101ʳ, Varro’s De Re Rustica; 101ʳ–115ᵛ, the Bucolica of Calpurnius and Nemesianus. The individual poems lack titles, but they are separated from each other by brief spaces. The following subscription appears at the end of the whole work: Aureliani Nemesiani Cartag̅ bucol’ explicit: Deo gratias amen. Finally, another more recent hand, as Bursian and Schenkl recognized, wrote Calpurnii eclogae and Nemesiani eclogae. The remaining leaves are blank. Parchment: 261 × 160 mm.: 116 leaves: 38 verses per page. With respect to correcting hands, two in particular stand out: N1 belongs to the original copyist. See above for a detailed description of this hand’s activity. N2: The manuscript was corrected again around the same time, but here and there the second hand cannot easily be distinguished from the first. N3: a third hand’s emendations can be discerned in only a few places. The manuscript was written at about the beginning of the fifteenth century. We know nothing about the origin and provenance of this manuscript except what is understood from the following passages written on the last leaf: Joannes Antonius Perillus patric. neap. ac iuvenis apprime litteratus Jacobum Perillum hoc libro donavit MDCVII, Klis Juniis (“Joannes Antonius Perillus, a nobleman of Naples and most learned gentleman, gave this book to Jacob Perillus in 1667 on the first of June”), and a little below, Antonii Seripandi ex Jacobi Perilli amici opt. munere (“This book belongs to Antonius Seripandus, received as a gift from his best friend Jacob Perillus”). Later it was brought to the library of San Giovanni a Carbonara, and from there it came to the greatest library in Naples, formerly known as the Reale biblioteca borbonica, (now the Biblioteca nazionale Vittorio Emanuele III). G = Codex Gaddianus pl. 90, 12 inf. Florence Biblioteca Medicea Laurenziana plut. 90, 12 inf. It contains the twelve eclogues of Francesco Petrarch (ff. 1–44), the Culex of Vergilius Maro, the Dirae of Vergilius Maro (ff. 52–55), and Calpurnius and Nemesianus (ff. 55–74). A very brief, unattributed eclogue follows with the interlocutors Daphnis, Tityrus, Mopsus, and Meliboeus. The following inscription has been added to the eclogues of Calpurnius: Egloge Calfurnii ad nemesianum cartaginiensem. (The Eclogues of Calfurnius to Nemesianus of Carthage). Nemesianus follows Calpurnius with the following title prefixed: Aureliani nemesiani cartaginiensis egloghe incipiunt (Here begin the eclogues of Aurelianus Nemesianus of Carthage). At the end of each eclogue there appears an explicit with the number of each eclogue, but Calpurnius’ sixth eclogue lacks a subscription, and the following is written at the end of the seventh: explicit sexta egloga Calphurnii (Here ends the sixth eclogue of Calphurnius). This is explained by the fact that the seventh eclogue follows the sixth without any break, with the result that only six eclogues are attributed to Calpurnius in this manuscript. But in the margin, where the sixth eclogue ought to end, the copyist has added the following: aliqui volunt dicere quod ista sit alia et diversa egloga ubi incipit “lentus," aliqui dicunt quod est una etc. (Some wish to say that the eclogue that begins lentus is a completely different eclogue; others say that it is the same, etc.). Paper: 294 × 225 mm.: 74 leaves. Individual pages generally have 29 verses, but some vary, with the shorter ones having 26 and the longer ones haveing 32 verses. G1: The copyist himself added almost all of the corrections either by removing scribal errors in the verses or adding variant readings to the margin. See above for a more detailed description of this hand’s activity. G2: Some corrections seem to have been made by another hand. Written at the beginning of the fifteenth century.
