English Abstract: One of the great endeavors of twentieth-century musicology has to be the editing of almost all the polyphony of the (long) fourteenth century. Beginning with Johannes Wolf’s posthumously published edition of the famous Squarcialupi Codex (1955) and ending with the publication of the final installment of the monumental Polyphonic Music of the Fourteenth Century (1991), an international consortium of scholars from Europe and North America provided the expertise for this enterprise. Even before this project was complete there were rumblings in relation both to editorial approaches (which changed dramatically over its course) and to the pitfalls of transcribing and reading medieval polyphony in modern notation. Several non-liturgical texts presented in these editions are problematic or even nonsensical.
