Zeitschrift für Klassische Philologie, Patristik und lateinische Tradition
The article concerns itself with the text of Ennod. carm. 343, 24 Vogel: the most recent editor corrected the nonsensically reading of B (Bruxelles, Bibliothèque royale de Belgique, 9845 – 9848) with schemata, whereas other editors, including Sirmond, emended to schemate. But Vogel’s reading implicates a negative meaning of the word schema and a consequent devaluation of eloquence, which seems to be really incoherent with the celebration of Cyprian’s eloquence conducted by Ennodius in the remaining part of the hymn. Here Sirmond’s schemate is defended: the so-rebuilt reading is a direct reference to a martyr’s witticism – already discussed by Augustine in serm. 309 – which is attested in the Acta proconsularia sancti Cypriani 32.3: Consule tibi of the Proconsul elicits in re tam iniusta nulla est consultatio.
