The first Latin Translation of Sextus Empiricus, Outlines of Phyrronism (I)
The present article examines the characteristics and trans- mission of an anonymous Latin translation of the Outlines of Pyrrhonism by the Skeptic philosopher Sextus Empiricus (c. 160-c. 210). In particular, it provides a palaeographical and codicological analysis of one of the three manuscripts that preserve this translation, Paris, BnF, lat. 14700. It ap- pears to have been written by one textual hand of North- ern French origin at the very end of the thirteenth centu- ry (Part I). The other two manuscripts will be studied in a subsequent article (Part II). Moreover, the article attempts to identify the author of the translation, who, in the light of his style, must have been active in the same milieu and at the same time as Bartholomew of Messina (fl. 1260)
The First Latin Translation of Sextus Empiricus, Outlines of Pyrrhonism (II)
This article is the second part of a study on
an anonymous Latin translation of the Outlines of Pyrrhonism
(Πυρρώνειοι ὑποτυπώσεις = PH) by the Skeptic
philosopher Sextus Empiricus (c. 160 - c. 210). The first
part, published in Scripta (10, 2017, pp. 57-67), showed that
the translation is to be dated to the thirteenth century
on the basis of the literal style, similar to that of Bartholomew
of Messina (fl. 1260), but with the typical feature
of translating μὲν γάρ as quidem igitur, like μὲν οὖν, instead
of quidem enim. Moreover, it provided an analysis
of one of the three manuscripts transmitting the translation,
Paris, BNF, lat. 14700, written by a single textual
hand of Northern French origin in c. 1300, and containing
a large collection of Toletan translations of pseudo-
Aristotle and Arabic philosophers, together with translations
from Greek by Burgundio of Pisa (1110-1193) and
Robert Grosseteste (1175-1253). The other two manuscripts
are studied in the present article, Madrid, BNE,
lat. 10112, and Venice, BNM, lat. x 267 (3460), both
written by Transalpine hands datable to c. 1300. The Venice
manuscript has only Sextus’ works, PH and some
books of Against Professors; the Madrid manuscript
contains important scientific texts, in particular those by
Roger Bacon (1214-1292?) of Oxford, with well-known
connections to Pope Clement iv, and Campanus of Novara
(1220-1296), who served as chaplain to different
popes from Urban iv to Boniface viii, and died in Viterbo,
not far from where the Venice volume is known to
have been in 1323. Finally, the article discusses the contribution
of the Latin translation to the reconstruction
of the Greek text in PH iii 101-167 (145, 1-160, 20)
