Abstract

The ms. Corpus Christi College 486 of Cambridge contains six unpublished texts. In this paper, two of them are edited. They are sixteen iambic verses and the following short treatise on the iamb. These texts are probably independent but, in the ms., they are placed next to each other because complementary. The first text may be addressed to an emperor and it is in Byzantine dodecasyllabic. His doctrine is consistent with the verses themselves and the theory of the following short treatise. The second text proposes again, but integrates also the doctrine of the first one. It is likely complete and consistent with the theory of the ancient minor treatises on the Greek metres. In addition to this, it is peculiar for the words given as examples and for the topics selection (in this consistent with the Tractatus Chisianus and Isaac Monachus). The verses and the short treatise can be dated within the end of twelfth century A.D. and anyway they present references to the vocabulary and ways of the iambographer of the eleventh century (Psellos, Mauropodes, Nicetas of Heraclea, Cristophoros of Mytilenes).
