J.C. Maier – ein bereits bekannter Helfer Bluhmes bei der Transkription des Veroneser Codex Iustinianus

Abstract

J.C. Maier – a previously known aide to Bluhme in the transcription of the Veronese palimpsest of Justinian’s Code. This paper calls into question the idea that in the summer of 1823 Maier worked together with Bluhme at the decipherment of the palimpsest of Gaius’ Institutes preserved in the Capitular Library of Verona (Verona, B. Cap., Cod. XV). A comprehensive analysis of the sources leads to the conclusion that Maier helped Bluhme in the same library for the transcription of the palimpsest of Justinians’ Code (Verona, B. Cap., Cod. LX). – Keywords: Bluhme; Maier; Gaius’ Institutes; Verona, B. Cap., Cod. XV; Codex Iustinianus; Verona, B. Cap., Cod. LX; manuscript studies.
