The commentary on Catullus by Avantius, here in its second edition, is revised, and of considerable significance, as is explained by Julia Haig Gaisser in Catalogue Translationum et Commentariorum VII, p. 233: 'The Emendationes were published without a text of Catullus, but the second edition, published in 1500, appeared in a volume that included not only Catullus but also Tibullus and Propertius -- all ostensibly edited by Avantius, although the text of Catullus is virtually identical with that of Parthenius. The volume also contained commentaries on the poets by several scholars, as well as emendations of Lucretius and Statius by Avantius and a letter to Iacobus Cornelius which listed further corrections to the text of Catullus. Avantius used this edition as the basis for his important first Aldine edition of Catullus (1502), and its influence is apparent in his second Aldine (1515), as well as in the edition published by Trincavellius ca. 1535. Avantius thoroughly revised the second edition of the Emendationes, greatly abbreviating both prefatory material and notes and deleting his polemical remarks against Politianus.'.
