« Papa Eugenius transferri fecit »: The De fide orthodoxa and Its Reception between the 12th and 13th Century, Seen through MS Pisa, Biblioteca Cathariniana, 2

The article offers a study of the manuscript Pisa, Bibliotheca Cathariniana 2, a mid thirteenth-century codex containing John of Damascus’s De fide orthodoxa in the Latin translation by Burgundio of Pisa. The study analyses the features of the text in this manuscript, noting the presence of the traces of the translation method which Burgundio used in the mid of the twelfth century. It also analyses the glosses in the margins, which suggest the use of the manuscript for teaching purposes within a context deeply linked with the reception of Parisian theological influences. In particular it shows the presence of cross-references to passages from Peter Lombard’s Sentences and of two disputed questions of Guerric of St. Quentin. The study presents this manuscript as a witness of the plural history of the doctrinal discourse in twelfth-and thirteenth-century Europe.
