This section of the book Petronius Rediuiuus et Helias Tripolanensis: id est Petronius Rediuiuus Quod Heliae Tripolanensis Videtur Necnon Fragmenta (Alia) Heliae Tripolanensis contains a list of abbreviations used in the editor's commentary. Elias of Thriplow, a village near Cambridge, was a schoolmaster in the thirteenth century. Apart from his complete Serium Senectutis, he wrote several works that have survived only as extracts, many of which are extensive. Elias seemingly wrote what has been called Petronius Rediuiuus, a collection of tales and of essays about knights, merchants, women, and farmers. This collection frequently reflects the influence of spicy Petronius, rarely read in the middle Ages.Keywords: Elias of Thriplow; Serium Senectutis |
