This study presents the first textual observations on Barb. gr. 147, a previously unexamined manuscript of Galen's De motu musculorum. The identification of its scribes and the collation of its text suggest that the manuscript was produced in Florence during the last decade of the fifteenth century, within circles connected to the Byzantine diplomat and scholar Janos Laskaris. Classified as witness B, it belongs to the b branch of the stemma codicum and emerges as a twin of Par. gr. 2278. Both manuscripts are shown to derive from the lost hyparchetype, which also served as the model for Niccolò Leoniceno's Latin translation.

Abstract
This study presents the first textual observations on Barb. gr. 147, a previously unexamined manuscript of Galen's De motu musculorum. The identification of its scribes and the collation of its text suggest that the manuscript was produced in Florence during the last decade of the fifteenth century, within circles connected to the Byzantine diplomat and scholar Janos Laskaris. Classified as witness B, it belongs to the b branch of the stemma codicum and emerges as a twin of Par. gr. 2278. Both manuscripts are shown to derive from the lost hyparchetype, which also served as the model for Niccolò Leoniceno's Latin translation.File in questo prodotto:
