Abstract

[Anthonius de Haneron is supposed to have written the De Coloribus verborum Sentenciarumque (edn. 1475), and Engelbertus Schut the Colores Rhetoricales cum Concordanciis Figurarum Gramaticalium (edn. ± 1477). The two works are not only similar in contents- as the Hellingas remarked twenty years ago -, their text is largely identical, in choice of words, in structure of sentences, and even in the examples of the various figures of speech. So the question may be put: since the text is the same, who is the true author? Some clues in the texts, supported by circumstantial evidence, point to Engelbertus Schut., Anthonius de Haneron is supposed to have written the De Coloribus verborum Sentenciarumque (edn. 1475), and Engelbertus Schut the Colores Rhetoricales cum Concordanciis Figurarum Gramaticalium (edn. ± 1477).
