variorum \vair-ee-AWR-uhm, -OHR-\ adjective 1. containing different versions of the text by various editors: a variorum edition of Shakespeare. 2. containing many notes and commentaries by a number of scholars or critics: a variorum text of Cicero. Quotes The "Callas Remastered" lineup reproduces Callas's complete studio recordings, omitting nothing, while live material has been rigorously excluded. As it turns out, the conceptual logic gives the package a strange inconsistency—and a whiff of the variorum. -- Matthew Gurewitsch, "La Divina Goes High-Def," Wall Street Journal, December 17, 2014 Origin Variorum is short for the Latin phase ēditiō cum notīs variōrum meaning "edition with the notes of various persons." It came to English in the 1700s.
