- Abstract
This paper establishes the textual relationship between two of the earliest manuscripts of Augustine's De civitate Dei: the most ancient extant witness of the work, Verona, B. Cap., XXVIII (26), 5th century, and the Carolingian Verona, B. Cap., XXIX (27), 9th century. It examines their codicological relation and deals with the relationship of their paratexts (the tabulae capitulorum and the marginalia). It also analyses the possible Veronese provenance of two other witnesses, namely: Paris, BnF, lat. 12214 + St. Petersburg, RNB, Q.v.I.4 and the palimpsest Bologna, Archivio della Fabbriceria di San Petronio, cart. 716/1, no. 1, in order to offer an overview of the fortune of De civitate Dei in Verona from late Antiquity to the Carolingian period. Lastly, it provides a transcription of an unpublished oratio, added on f. 252v of manuscript XXVIII, which has been linked with the Bishop Ratherius of Verona (ca. 887-974).
