A hearty congratulations to Silvia Castelli who has just defended her doctoral dissertation on the subject of J. J. Wettstein (see here). I have read a bit of it privately and what I read was excellent (and well formatted too). I do hope it gets published. For now we extend a hearty congrats to her!
P.S. I am happy to announce the passing of TC-related thesis defenses on this space. Please let me know.

The opening chapters are the best summary of "textual criticism" history from the 1500s to the 1700s that I have seen anywhere. . Thanks!
ReplyDeleteAny additional resources along that line are appreciated.
I’d like to read what she says.Did you have to purchase the book, which appears to cost 149 euros; or did you find another source?
