Abstract

The textual tradition of the Pseudo Turpin Chronicle in the Gallo-Roman area reveals a complexity only partially clarified by the existing studies. The traditio of the French vernacular versions appears dashed in the main lines but is still imperfect on a smaller scale, with only partially defined filiations and contaminations; also the recensio presents various problems, both regarding its completeness and, above all, from the point of view of the stemmatic reconstructions. The analysis of these problems constitutes the preparatory phase of the study of the ‘Johannes’ version, which is still missing the critical edition, the final objective of this research.
