The Textual History of Epistula Polycarpi: From the History of Editions to the Benefits of the Digitized Manuscripts

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Chapter › Scientific › peer-review

Abstract

For some 25 years, more and more medieval manuscripts have been digitized, and scholars can – or at least could – consult digitized catalogues and digital libraries. In the light of the manuscripts and editions of the so-called Apostolic Fathers, I would like to demonstrate what kind of concrete research materials and research options this change can offer. The epistle of Polycarp studied here is of particular interest, because half of this epistle is preserved only in Latin manuscripts, which have been seldom studied by modern scholars.
