Commedia Phylogenetic Data

This page gives access to the three NEXUS files generated by the Shaw/Robinson AHRC Commedia project, as described in the “Phylogenetic Analysis” section of the editorial matter of that publication:

• The file M2R1L0.nex including Martini’s collations (labelled “Mart-c2” or “M2” in our terminology) in preference to those of the original Aldine edition; the corrections of the “c1” scribe of Rb (“Rb-c1” or “R1”: in fact, the original scribe correcting his own work) in preference to the original readings in that manuscript; and the original readings of LauSC (“LauSC-orig” or “L0”) and of all other witnesses;
• The file M2R1L2.nex also includes the Martini collations (“M2”) and the corrections by the original hand in Rb (“R1”), but instead of the original readings includes the corrections by the second hand in LauSC (“LauSC-c2” or “L2”);
• The file M0R1L0.nex includes the original text of the Aldine edition, the corrections by the original hand in Rb (“R1”), and the original readings in LauSC.

To download these files, either right-click (Windows) or alt-click (Macintosh) on the link and choose a location on your computer to save the file. Alternatively, just load the files into your browser by clicking on them and then use “Save as” to save them on your computer. Note that each file is more than 5 mb., and so will take some time to come.
