Certain Sources of Corruption in Latin Manuscripts is a scholarly work by Frederick William Shipley, published in 1904. The book is a study of two manuscripts of Livy, an ancient Roman historian, namely Codex Puteanus from the fifth century and its copy, Codex Reginensis 762 from the ninth century. The author investigates the sources of corruption in these manuscripts, which include errors, omissions, and additions. Shipley examines the differences between the two manuscripts and identifies the possible causes of corruption, such as scribal errors, deliberate alterations, and the influence of other texts. The book is written in a scholarly style and is intended for students and scholars of Latin manuscripts and textual criticism. It provides valuable insights into the process of manuscript transmission and the challenges of reconstructing ancient texts.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
