Zeitschrift für Klassische Philologie, Patristik und lateinische Tradition
The following article focuses on aspects of the textual transmission of Ambrose’s De obitu Theodosii. It examines the content of (the fragmentary) manuscript Ferrara, Bibl. com. Ariostea Cl. II. 238, not known to the former editor of the speech, which is an interesting new witness of the text, and discusses its value for establishing the text of the speech, but also of Epistula extra collectionem 1 (the manuscript could have preserved original readings of this Epistula, not known so far, discussed below). Furthermore, the article sheds light on the interrelation of two important Milanese manuscripts transmitting De obitu Theodosii (Bibl. Ambrosian. B 54 inf. and I 71 sup.) and asks, if manuscript Bologna, Bibl. univ. 2531 (neglected by the former editor) could help to learn more about the text of manuscript Köln, Erzbischöfl. Dom- und Diözesanbibl. 32.
