Varianti, errori e trasmissione del testo “gregoriano”

Abstract

In the history of the debate about textual criticism many scholars tend to regard differences among witnesses as "variants", while others emphasise the idea of "error". Through the systematic exam of a closed corpus (St Gallen liturgical manuscripts) the article shows that both errors (often "mechanical" errors) and true variants are clearly witnessed by these manuscripts.
