Summary:Sextus Pompeius Festus' De verborum significatione, a comprehensive lexicon of ancient Latin words, is a text with a difficult tradition: it was led to humanistic age by a codex unicus, incomplete and damaged by fire; after its rediscovery, it suffered the further loss of some quires which today can only be reconstructed by apographs. Lindsay's standard edition is based on an insufficient and often inaccurate documentation, which does not allow the use of a fully reliable critical text. The present volume shows the results of a direct recognition of the entire manuscript tradition, analyzed from the material point of view and from that of the stemmatic reconstruction, and offers a reconsideration of the editorial history of the text. To provide a concrete example of the progress that can be made by applying new care to the text, a specimen of critical edition is presented, accompanied for the first time by an Italian translation, notes, and broad indexes.
