Her numerous publications on the Beneventan script, which was written in the southern Italian peninsula, have dramatically altered our knowledge of the dissem- ination of this book hand from 800 to 1600. Her editorial work for the Cat- alogus translationum et commentariorum, as Associate Editor and since 1986 as Editor-in-Chief, has resulted in several learned volumes tracing the fortuna and study of classical authors from antiquity to the year 1600. The Festschrift volume Classica et Beneventana, presented to her on the th occasion of her 65 birthday by friends and colleagues, brings together eighteen essays in the two areas of Beneventan script and the study of the classics in the Middle Ages which have been the focus of Professor Brown’s research throughout her scholarly career. Since 1970, Virginia Brown has been a fellow at the Pontifical Insti- tute of Mediaeval Studies at the University of Toronto where she has earned a formidable reputation among students as a teacher and supervisor. Her seminar on the editing of mediaeval Latin texts is legendary among those students who took the license degree in mediaeval studies, while her sem- inar in Latin palaeography, known for its rigorous attention to detail, has trained generations of scholars to localize, date, and read manuscripts in diverse scripts and genres. Her vast erudition and the enthusiasm she brings to her teaching have recently been recognized by the Medieval Academy of America, which honored Professor Brown in 2005 with an award for distinguished teaching — the highest honor the academy can bestow. As editor of Mediaeval Studies from 1975 to 1988, Professor Brown single-handedly produced tomes noted for their scholarly acumen. As a senior fellow at the Pontifical Institute, she has furthered the high level of scholarship associated with that institution. In particular, she has been instrumental in the publication of new editions of liturgical texts written in the Beneventan script under the auspices of the Monumenta Liturgica Beneventana program which she jointly edits with Roger E. Reynolds and Richard F. Gyug. tema36_voorwerk 19-02-2008 08:29 Pagina X X INTRODUCTION Throughout her scholarly career, Professor Brown has created, thanks to her great generosity and kindness, an extensive network of friends and colleagues who wish to honor her with this Festschrift volume. The eigh- teen essays collected herein are written by leading scholars in the fields of palaeography, codicology, Beneventan script and classical reception. Sev- eral contributors, such as Marjorie Curry Woods, Luisa Nardini, Charles Hilken, Richard Gyug, Greti Dinkova-Bruun, and Randall Rosenfeld, were students of Professor Brown during her tenure at the Pontifical Institute of Mediaeval Studies and attest to her important work in training the next generation of scholars. Roger E. Reynolds, don Mariano dell’Omo, and Thomas Forrest Kelly have all worked closely on that «precious» script (as Professor Brown is wont to call it) on which she herself has devoted- ly labored throughout her career. Several other contributors to the volume, such as Julia Haig Gaisser, James Hankins and Marianne Pade, have con- tributed wide-ranging and seminal articles to the Catalogus translationum et commentariorum. Lastly, the volume includes a number of contribu- tions from friends and colleagues who have benefited from Professor Brown’s expertise, including Sandro Bertelli, Jacqueline Hamesse, Hope Mayo, Luisa Miglio, Marco Palma, Gabriella Braga, and Mario Iadanza. * * * The planning and publication of this Festschrift volume for Virginia Brown could not have been completed without the assistance of many indi- viduals whose contributions we gratefully acknowledge. For generous financial aid in the planning of the conference «Classica et Beneventana», held at the Ohio State University on Oct. 28-29, 2005, we are grateful to David Hahm, former Chair of the Department of Greek and Latin, Bar- bara Hanawalt, George III Professor and former Director of the Center for Mediaeval and Renaissance Studies, Ken Adrien, former Chair of the Department of History, Bernd Fischer, Chair of the Department of Ger- manic Languages and Literatures, and Mark Fullerton, former Chair of the Department of Art History. Matthew Bester and Alessia Colarossi provid- ed invaluable proofing of the volume. Wendy Watkins, Curator of the Cen- ter for Epigraphical and Palaeographical Studies, fielded queries from con- tributors with her usual aplomb and set up the volume in camera-ready format with untiring goodwill. We are also most grateful to Jacqueline Hamesse, general editor of the series, for the help and encouragement she
