Confessiones
Quum Patrum studium omni fere tempore in Ecclesia Anglicana floruerit, mirum sane accidit, non nisi unum S. Augustini opusculum[1], quod sciam, idque historici tantum argumenti, typis apud nos unquam mandatum fuisse. Auspicatius ergo a nullo alio exordium sumpturam fore Bibliothecam hanc Patrum duximus, quam ab ipso Augustino, neque opera ejus selecta quam ab ipsius Confessionibus, tum quia indolem Sancti Patris, ingenium, vitam, mores optime declarent, tum vero quia iis, qui pietati gnaviter studuerunt, nunquam non (si modo licuerit) in manibus versat sint. Operi tam insigni, et sculorum plus quam tredecim qu id in succum et sanguinem pietatis su converterunt, suffragiis, amore, studio, comprobato, non est quod immoremur; id ergo paucis tantum exponemus, quod in hac editione prstare voluerimus. Et nos quidem editione Benedictina contenti fuissemus, quam certe, (si in hc vel illa Patrum editione minus diligenter egerint Monachi quidam ordinis illius impigerrimi, deque Patribus optime meriti,) solito labore et patientia, summaque cura et fidelitate concinnarunt, prsertim cum recentius adhuc summa cum diligentia denuo recensita sit et emendata; eorum tamen scrupulis occurrere voluimus, quibus suspectum est quicquid Ecclesi Roman elaboraverint assecl, quosque a Patrum studio absterret corruptelarum nescio quarundam suspicio. Quo ergo huic timori mederemur, codices Manuscriptos, quotquot Bibliothec nostr habent, contulimus; et textum Benedictinum pro fundamento quidem ponentes, varias etiam lectiones, quas notarunt {viii}Benedictini, sedulo pensitantes, codicum Oxoniensium quoque, in nova hac editione paranda, opem adhibuimus. Et quatuor quidem ex iis jamdudum in gratiam editorum Benedictinorum, hic illic collati erant; quod tamen, etsi non infide, negligentius tamen certe factum est. Quos cum accuratius contulissemus, e duobus eos fontibus profluxisse apparuit; et eorum quidem, quos literis ABCD insignivimus[2], tantam esse inter se affinitatem, ut ex uno Ms. eos exscriptos esse suborta sit suspicio; alias tamen, (etsi rarius in lectionibus majoris momenti,) adeo in diversa ierunt, ut ad unam potius, quam dicunt, "familiam" pertinere visi sint, quam ab uno exemplare desumpti. Codex autem reliquus E, ad aliam omnino familiam pertinet; adeo ut mirum sit eum qui codices BCDE olim contulerit, "codd. Anglicanis" toties hanc vel illam lectionem tribuerit, cum cod. E ut plurimum a cteris diversam sistat. Indoles autem horum Mss. clarius nobis innotuit, inspectis Varr. Lectt., quas editor recentior Benedictinus D. Martin, su Confessionum editioni (Parisiis 1741) subjecit, quippe qui Mss., quos adhibuerit, nominatim fere ubique adducat. Postquam ergo horum lectiones sedulo notaveramus, codd. ABCD maxime cum antiquissimo illo codice Germ. 1. (sculi, sicut ille autumat, octavi, adeoque vix quadringentos post editas Confessiones annos descripto) congruere reperimus; E vero potius cum Bertinensi. Hi autem in libb. x. et xi universis, quater tantum, (quoad saltem lectiones utriusque notavit D. Martin,) inter se concordant; cteris Mss. prcipuis, Gislen. Camer. Aquic. Torn. 1., cum utroque ut plurimum congruentibus, quoties a lectione vulgata discedant; ita tamen ut Germ. 2. plerumque cum Germ. 1. congruat, uterque vero, ut et Bertin., lectiones plures sibi proprias habeat. "Familias" ergo, quas vocant, duas admodum diversas exhibent. Codd. autem Oxon. ita cum utroque congruunt, ut in aliis rursus discedant, unde liquet eos e codicibus antiquis, his affinibus, potius quam ex ipsis fuisse derivatos; {ix}spissime vero eas lectiones habent, quas Benedictini, tanto supellectile muniti, in "codd. antiquissimis" vel "optimis" exstare testati sunt. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
