R. Massuet, O.S.B., Dissertationes praeviae in Irenaei libros, Dissertatio I (Art. I De Valentino, Art. II De Valentini discipulis, Art. III De Valentini magistris)

R. Massuet, O.S.B. (1710): the first of his preliminary dissertations on Irenaeus, tracing Valentinus, his disciples and his forerunners back to Greek philosophy, in Latin with its Greek citations and foot notes (Migne, PG 7). The text was first read by Gemini (a machine reader); the Reading Room checked a sample of its columns against the page.
