Verso un repertorio dei copisti greci nelle biblioteche d'Italia

The aim of the paper is to illustrate a project which has the ambition to continue the great enterprise of the Repertorium der Griechischen Kopisten (RGK), in order to cover the missing area of the Italian libraries. In the first part G. De Gregorio draws an historical sketch of the genesis of the project and explains its characteristics as well as its aims. In the second part S. Martinelli Tempesta illustrates the content of the project by means of three specimina, focusing upon three Greek scribes of the Italian Renaissance: Andronikos Kallistos, Demetrios Xanthopulos, Georgios Tribizias.
