The present article examines the characteristics and transmission of an anonymous Latin translation of the Outlines of Pyrrhonism by the Skeptic philosopher Sextus Empiricus (c. 160-c. 210). In particular, it provides a palaeographical and codicological analysis of one of the three manuscripts that preserve this translation, Paris, BNF, lat. 14700. It appears to have been written by one textual hand of Northern French origin at the very end of the thirteenth century (Part I). The other two manuscripts will be studied in a subsequent article (Part II). Moreover, the present article attempts to identify the author of the translation, who, in the light of his style, must have been active in the same milieu and at the same time as Bartholomew of Messina (fl. 1260) and William of Moerbeke (c. 1218-1286).
