Tertulliano e Isidoro di Siviglia

The present study sets out to define to what extent Isidore was familiar with Tertullian’s works. The starting point is the analysis of the manuscript tradition of Carthaginian writings and a reexamination of Tertullian’s memoirs, already dealt with in specific studies, highlighting the textual variants and the value in Isidore’s text. In this perspective it is possible to compose an overview, specifying those Carthaginian writings which were used by the Bishop of Seville and describing the relationship between the medieval corpora which have passed on Tertullian’s works.
