Michele Psello, Poema 6 Westerink (Grammatica): sondaggio sulle fonti (vv. 271-309, 327)

Psellus’ poem 6 Westerink contains a lexicographic section, the lines of which are entirely made up of glosses. In this article I carry out a survey on the glosses starting with alpha and beta of the vv. 271-309 to identify Psellus’ lexicographic sources. The result is that these are to be identified with Pseudo-Cyrillus and probably Diogenianus. In the process contributions are made to the text of the poem. In the appendix, I examine v. 327, which may be a gloss on Nonn. Par. Ioh. I 195-196.
