I marginalia di Francesco Pucci al carme 67 di Catullo

Of the numerous erudite interpretations of Catullus’s poem 67 suggested by Humanist and Renaissance scholars, many were often based on textual conjectures that were interesting but paleographically unlikely: among such suggestions, a conjecture on l. 32, erroneously attributed to Angelo Colocci and Bernardo Pisano during the nineteenth century, can be traced to unpublished marginalia by the Florentine Humanist Francesco Pucci (1463-1512). His interpretation of poem 67 seems to take into account a historical and antiquarian reading of ll. 32–34, a passage discussed at length by Humanists in Brescia and Verona.
