Philology - it has been said - is the science of discovering the error in the texts and the art of removing it. Which are the peculiarities of philology applied to the texts of classical antiquity, the strategies and methodologies it adopts, the risks it faces?
The teaching aims to provide in-depth knowledge of the mechanisms and terminology of textual criticism; competences needed to reconstruct manuscript traditions, to discuss variants, to suggest conjectural emendations of a text; learning to read a critical edition of a classical text and to fully understand the information in the apparatus and the praefatio and their consequences; ability to use bibliographic tools and online databases relevant to this discipline.
