This issue includes an Introduction by F.M., eight contributions by Italian scholars, and Conclusions by Antonietta Porro. Ancient authors and works concerned are (scholia on) Homer, Aeschylus, Aristophanes, mathematical Greek treatises, John of Scythopolis’ commentary on the Corpus Dionysiacum, Latin scholia to Virgil.
