Due note critiche ai Commentarii linguae Graecae di Guillaume Budé

Abstract

This paper proves that a quotation Bude ascribed to “Theodore Gaza’s Laelius” was actually taken from Gaza’s Greek translation of Cicero’s Cato maior de senectute. Moreover, Bude cites an excerpt from George Scholarios’ Confessio fidei posterior, a work with which Bude got acquainted thanks to his teacher George Hermonymos, who translated it into Latin.
