Abstract

During a critical edition’s work it is necessary to draw the stemma codicum, i.e. the graphical representation of the lineage relationships of the textual transmission through the linkage of manuscripts and prints. There is no specific LaTeX package designed to draw the stemmata. Nevertheless it is possible to adapt the packages usually employed for generative syntax trees in linguistic studies. This paper discusses two cases: syntree, a user-friendly package, and xytree, a more complex yet more powerful package. The analysis limits the description to the useful functions for drawing stemmata codicum, neglecting the others
