Codex oblitus [German]

by Josephine Klingebeil

The Dresden manuscript Ob.47 is a completely unknown, vernacular translation of the life of Alexander by Quintus Curtius Rufus, of which only one transmission exists. The text and manuscript were written in the mid-fifteenth century in Milan, with the historian Lodrisio Crivelli named as the translator. This volume provides a comprehensive philological analysis of the artifact, accompanied by an edition that is freely available online.
