Hermeneumata Pseudodositheana, ed. G. Goetz, Lipsiae 1892, pp. 72-94 (= Corpus glossariorum Latinorum, III).
The Hermeneumata Amploniana takes its name from the codex that transmits the text, viz. ms. Erfurt, Wissenschaftliche Allgemeinbibliothek, Amplon. 2o 10 (9th c.). The work consists of a brief preface, an alphabetical list of 676 Greco-Latin glosses, and 28 capitula. Judging from the testimony of an index attached to the preface, the manuscript is missing about a dozen of the capitula that were originally contained in the complete text. Some excerpta of the collection are found in other manuscripts: (1) Leiden Bibliotheek der Rijksuniversiteit, Voss. lat. F. 24 (9th c.); (2) Bern, Burgerbibliothek, 236 (10th c.); (3) Paris, Bibliothèque Nationale de France, lat. 7683, a manuscript that Claude Saumaise (Claudius Salmasius) assembled in the 17th c. from sources that are at least partially lost, among which was probably a codex of the Hermeneumata Amploniana that preserved a complete sequence of capitula. In 1892, Georg Goetz published a diplomatic edition of the text from the Erfurt codex. [P. Gatti; tr. C. L. Caterine].
