The essay presents a palaeographical, linguistic, and philological analysis of a newly discovered incomplete witness of novella V.9 from the Decameron: ms. London, British Library, Additional 16613. This manuscript, dating to the second half of the 15th century and likely transcribed in the Ligurian region, features a text marked by significant alterations and contaminations between the two editorial levels of the work, similar to the two copies produced by Ghinozzo di Tommaso Allegretti in the early 15th century.
Il saggio offre un esame paleografico, linguistico e filologico di un nuovo testimone incompleto della novella V 9 del Decameron, il ms. London, British Library, Additional 16613. Il codice, databile alla seconda metà del XV secolo e trascritto probabilmente in area ligure, tramanda un testo caratterizzato da significativi rimaneggiamenti e contaminazioni fra i due livelli redazionali dell’opera e affine alle due copie realizzate dal senese Ghinozzo di Tommaso Allegretti all’inizio del Quattrocento.
