Summary:

"The Institutiones humanarum litterarum - that is, the second book of Cassiodorus' masterpiece, devoted to secular learning - have come down to us in three different textual forms: the 'authentic' recension Ω, corresponding to Cassiodorus' final wishes, and two subsequent recensions, designated as Φ and Δ. In these two recensions, later interpolations were added on the basis of an earlier authorial draft, providing modern readers with valuable information both about Cassiodorus' progressive revisions and about the early fortune of his work. This volume provides a full commentary to the first critical edition of the interpolated recensions Φ and Δ (CC SL 99A). In doing so, it conveys a full picture of the complex history of the Institutiones saeculares, from their first appearance in the monastery of Vivarium to the Carolingian Renaissance, at which time they knew their greatest success and circulation." -- Publisher, page four of cover.
