humanist Sigonio’s compilation of every known (at the time) excerpt, fragment,
and ancient cross-reference among Cicero’s genuine works and other classical
citations, first published in 1559. The present work is an expanded version of
the 1559 edition augmented by additional fragments brought to Sigonio’s
attention by Fulvio Orsini, citing notes by Antonio Augustín. See W. McCuaig,
Carlo Sigonio: The Changing World of the Late Renaissance. Princeton, NJ, 1989,
p. 296 n; E. Havens, “Babelic Confusion. Literary Forgery and the Bibliotheca
Fictiva,” in W. Stephens &amp; E. Havens (eds.), Literary forgery in early
modern Europe, 1450-1800, Baltimore, 2018, pp. 47-49, 69 n 21-23. In 1583, Sigonio published the ‘Consolatio,’ a notorious forgery of Cicero (see Bib# 4102811/Fr# 283 in this collection).</span></p><p></p>
