Abstract

This article provides new evidence of the use, by Joanot Martorell in his Tirant lo Blanc, of the medieval Catalan translation of Ovid’s Heroides. The identificacion of 67 new passages taken from Ovid’s translation leads to the conclusion that Martorell employed a glossed manuscript of the translation, from which he took the text as well as some vernacular glosses.
