[ SOLD OUT ] ANACREON. Edidit Bruno Gentili. Anacreonte. Introduzione, testo critico, traduzione, studio sui frammenti papiracei. Edizioni dell'Ateneo, Roma, 1958. XLIII,218p. Original light green cloth. Edges as well as end papers rust stained. (Rare). ‘This collection has great merits. The collection of fragments is complete (…); all testimonia are quoted, most verbatim; the manuscript readings are (…) fully reported; references and contexts are copied with quite exceptional accuracy; the texts of Anacreon are (with few exeptions) sound and sober; and an index verborum is supplied. (…) I have made a few criticism of detail, but am much more concerned to stress the positive merits of the edition: it offers in attractive form a complete survey of the tradition, useful to all and indispensable to some of us.’ (D.L. Page in The Classical Review (New Series), 1959, pp.234-237). (Antiquarian) (approx. delivery time: undeliverable)
