Hello,
I do not know whether its ok to post the text of an OG question here, but would just like to discuss one of them.
This is question 123 from the OG11 book - CR section (Codex Berinensis.. a Florentine copy...)
My question is: Is it to be assumed that a "copy" of a treatise can be made within a single year ? The paragraph does not mention anything
about that. What if the 1st copyist took more than 3 years to copy the first 80 pages ? - Although unlikely, how do we make such an assumption? Maybe he was really slow
. Given this, I couldn't answer with confidence that the "copy" was made in 1148. Or did I overthink this one?
Can someone help?
thanks,
tarak
