| Summary: | The Argumentum in Prouerbia, which is transmitted in various forms in several Synopses of Holy Scripture under the names of Athanasius, John Chrysostom and Nicetas Seides, appears in the opening section or as exegetical pieces in the course of several catenae on Proverbs. In this article the reader finds an editio maior along with a translation of the Argumentum. The reconstruction of the history of this text shows reconfiguration phenomena parallel to those observed in catenae: users expand, shorten, and sometimes reformulate a text they did not consider deeply rooted in tradition. This leads us to the conclusion that the criterion of this text’s vitality is not its authority, but its lack thereof: as a minor text that ended up, so to speak, in the public domain, the Argumentum in Prouerbia is a copyright-free text that readers believed they were free to use and modify. |
