        This article presents a preliminary study of a previously unexamined copy of Marsilius of Padua's Defensor pacis, Dictiones II and III, now preserved in MS Q.VIII.5 (22) in the Biblioteca Roncionana in Prato. This witness, misattributed to William of Ockham, belonged to and was annotated by the canonist Gimignano Inghirami (1370-1460), an auditor of the Roman Rota and a key figure in the Florentine diocese, who actively participated in the fifteenth-century councils from Pisa to Ferrara-Florence. The study provides: (I) an overview of Gimignano's biography and library within their historical and cultural context; (II) a preliminary analysis of this witness, its glosses, and its possible placement within the textual tradition of the Defensor pacis; (III) an investigation on the misattribution to Ockham, considered in the context of the manuscript tradition of the Defensor and its reception in the Liber de ecclesiastica potestate by Laurentius of Arezzo (d. post 1447).
        Research for this article was made possible by my Beatriz Galindo Junior Fellowship (2023-2027), hosted by the Departamento de Ciencias Sociales, Filosofía, Geografía, Traducción e Interpretación of the Universidad de Córdoba. I am grateful to Luca Burzelli, Jürgen Miethke, Pietro B. Rossi, and Francesco Santi for their valuable comments; to Giovanni Pestelli and the Biblioteca Roncioniana in Prato for their kind assistance; and to Pete Bibby for revising the English. Any remaining shortcomings are my own. Throughout the article, Latin quotations follow the orthography of the respective edition or manuscript, while normalizing u/v-spelling. References to the Defensor pacis are based on Marsilius von Padua, Defensor pacis, edited by R. Scholz, 2 vols. (Hannover: Hahnsche Buchhandlung, 1932-1933); for the English translation I relied on Marsilius of Padua, The Defender of the Peace, translated by A. Brett (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2005). Other English translations are mine, unless otherwise indicated. Este artículo presenta un estudio preliminar de una copia hasta ahora no examinada del Defensor pacis, Dictiones II y III, de Marsilio de Padua, actualmente conservada en el MS Q.VIII.5 (22) de la Biblioteca Roncioniana en Prato. Este testimonio, erróneamente atribuido a Guillermo de Ockham, perteneció al canonista Gimignano Inghirami (1370-1460), auditor de la Rota Romana y figura clave en la diócesis florentina, quien participó activamente en los concilios del siglo XV, desde Pisa hasta Ferrara-Florencia. El estudio ofrece: (I) una visión general de la biografía de Gimignano y de su biblioteca en su contexto histórico y cultural; (II) un análisis preliminar de este testimonio, sus glosas y su posible ubicación dentro de la tradición textual del Defensor pacis; (III) una investigación sobre la atribución errónea a Ockham, considerada en el contexto de la tradición manuscrita del Defensor y su recepción en el Liber de ecclesiastica potestate de Laurentius de Arezzo († después de 1447).
