C.A.L.M.A. Compendium Auctorum Latinorum 7.6 (2023), Iohannes Berardi - Iohannes Bertachinus · Elenchus abbreviationum · Indices

Founded by Michael Lapidge and the late Claudio Leonardi, and now edited by Michael Lapidge and Francesco Santi, C.A.L.M.A. is designed to serve as a complete bibliography of medieval and humanist authors. Although various bibliographical reference-works exist for specialized disciplines (e.g. medicine) or for various religious orders (e.g. Franciscans), C.A.L.M.A. is the only reference-work which attempts coverage of all Latin authors in all disciplines and all religious orders. For each author C.A.L.M.A. provides the following information: First, a general bibliography (BIBL.GEN.) listing biographical and cultural studies on the author and his/her milieu, in the order of their date of publication. Under this heading are included references to entries in the relevant medieval encyclopedias (e.g. Lexikon des Mittelalters) and literary histories (e.g. Manitius), plus all relevant articles and monographs on the author; Then follows a list of the author’s individual works (including works of doubtful authenticity), in alphabetical order. Published scholarship pertaining to each work is listed under the following headings: REF: references to the work in alpha-numerical repertories (e.g. Bibliotheca Hagiographica Latina); MSS: a list of the principal manuscripts which transmit the work—but these are listed only in cases where the work is unpublished, or in cases where a work is transmitted in an autograph manuscript; ED: a list of published editions of the work (frequently including incunables); STU: a list of the published studies—philological, historical, etc.—on the individual work.
