An intermediate source between the «Etymologies» of Isidore of Seville and the early medieval glossary «Agrestia et siluestria animalia»

Abstract

The early medieval glossary Agrestia et siluestria animalia is a collection of excerpts of two texts, the Peri dietis Theodori and the Etymologies of Isidore of Seville. This paper identifies an intermediate source between Isidore and a passage of the glossary. Thus, there is a possibility that other entries of the Agrestia and siluestria animalia have their origin in lost intermediate sources or ones that have yet to be discovered.
