Scrivere in greco a Vivarium dopo Cassiodoro. Competenze e cultura grafica dell’interpolatore Δ alle "Institutiones"

Cassiodorus’ "Institutiones saeculares" came down to us in several textual forms. The most widely copied, commonly known as ‘Δ recension’, displays a good number of Greek words which have been added to the original text of Cassiodorus. Most probably, the addition of such interpolations took place in the monastery of Vivarium between the end of the VIth and the beginning of the VIIth century. This essay proposes a careful analysis of the textual characteristics of Graeca within the Δ recension, so as to investigate their orthographic and palaeographic features. Also, the in-depth consideration of shared textual errors within Δ witnesses enables us to better investigate the first steps of Δ manuscript tradition
