Before entering Matthias? service, Antonio Bonfini dedicated to the king, among his other literary products, his freshly made translation of Herodian as well. The manuscript presented, which was partly copied by the author himself, is now kept in Salzburg (UB M II. 135). The text, however, is preserved in another copy (Vat. Ross. 483), neglected by most specialists of the field. This paper has a threefold aim. First, it examines the textual relationship of the two versions. Second, it analyizes the value of Bonfini?s ? now lost ? Greek original, as it can be extrapolated on the basis of the Latin translation, in constituting Herodian?s text, whether it contained readings not preserved in other manuscripts. Third, it compares Bonfini?s translation to that of Poliziano, which was made roughly at the same time or slightly later, but independently of his much less known colleague?s version.
