Zeitschrift für Klassische Philologie, Patristik und lateinische Tradition
The British Library houses an edition of Prudentius annotated by Richard Bentley (ed. N. Heinsius, shelfmarks 686. d. 7 and 686. d. 8). The notes, though already collected by Paul Schroeder in the second half of the 19th century, were now re-examined by Vinko Hinz and are here published and analysed for the first time. They consist of collations, short discussions and conjectures. While the collations and discussions are mainly interesting for the history of Classical Philology, Bentley’s conjectures show his brilliant insight into the problems of the text and can still be of use to readers and editors.
