La mela dell’inganno (Symph. Aenigm. 84 = AL 286 R², vv. 267-269)

In Symph. Aenigm. 84, 2 the reading functi of the main part of the manuscripts is defended against the reading pulchri of the Castalio’s manuscript on the basis of the Late Latin use and meaning of the verb fungor; so the allusion is to both the myths about Hippomenes and Acontius. Probably the reading pulchri comes from the glossa pulchram given by Salmasius’ manuscript. The paper shows an interesting hypothesis about the two recensiones of the Aenigmata.
