Abstract

This paper aims to investigate the potential of textual criticism in distinguishing two different kinds of innovation occurring in the manuscript transmission of Greek texts: deliberate conjectures and accidental mistakes. Discerning the ones from the others is essential to the elaboration of sound stemmata hypothesis. The presentation of the theoretical aspects of the problem is followed by an in-depth analysis of some case studies from Xenophon's Memorabilia, Hiero and Symposium.
