Imogontes, Ciriaco d'Ancona, and a Curious Collection of Words
2021
Overview
Abstract
An incomplete Latin glossary attributed to 'Imogontes' in the only known manuscript (Vatican City, Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana, Urb.lat. 452) is, in fact, a copy of a text that Ciriaco d'Ancona found at Monza on 27 November, 1442. From the transmission histories of the other texts found with 'Imogontes', I suggest that Ciriaco put two copies of the text into circulation; although those copies travelled widely and in the company of other texts that were frequently copied, they drew almost no interest whatsoever from later readers. Although 'Imogontes' turns out to be a ghost, the text itself gives yet more information about the interests and obsessions of Ciriaco.
