Quote:Its surprising how many libraries have put colour photos of their manuscripts online (the Bibliotheque Nationale du France has a wonderful collection which anyone with an internet connection can use). I think the manuscript is Laurentianus Graecus LV 4 at Florence but I don't know if they have put it online. But if one is not a trained paleographer, as you suggest it might be better and easier to use the Teubner and pay close attention to the notes at the bottom of the page.Robert Vermaat post=318821 Wrote:The Laurentius MS, damaged as it is, should be the source ...Realistically, few of us have ready access to any medieval manuscript, especially such a prestigious one.
My Greek is too limited to participate, and I'm more an antique Persian than a Roman, but I'm following this discussion with interest.

I have not checked this forum frequently since 2013, but I hope that these old posts have some value. I now have a blog on books, swords, and the curious things humans do with them.
