Sažetak
At the 33rd Marulić Days, a textology workshop for students was organised once again, after a hiatus of three years. The attending students of Latin studies from Zadar and Zagreb examined an unedited transcription of Marulić’s antiquarian work In epigrammata priscorum commentarius. This collection of epigraphs presents both foreign and Salonitan inscriptions, furnished with Marulić’s commentaries. The inscriptions and the commentaries provide an insight into various aspects of Roman civilisation.
The surviving autograph manuscript of the Marulić’s work must have been produced between approximately 1503 and 1510, while the transcription under consideration was made between 1576 and 1650. The transcription is kept in Vicenza, in the Biblioteca civica Bertoliana, call number ms. 842. The manuscript contains a note Ex libris comitis Mathęi de Georgiis Dalmati (sic), probably referring to one of the rectors of Dubrovnik from the Đurđević family. The Đurđević rectors who had the first name Mato were Mato Vidov (about 1329–1400) and Mato Vlahov (about 1428–1523), while there was also Mato Mihov (1739–1815) who belonged to the Đurđević–Bunić branch of the family. Mato Vlahov and Mato Mihov should be considered possible owners of the manuscript. The work of students at the workshop involved reading selected parts of ms. 842, resolving scribal abbreviations and correcting the errors of the transcriber. The selected passages were compared with the critical edition. A relatively large number of variant readings were observed. Finally the text was translated. The participants presented the results of their work to the other students, commenting on the features of their passage. The present paper provides twelve of these selections, compared with the readings in the critical edition.
