Marcella (marcellaviale) | 44 comments Hello,
this is the Italian edition of the Odyssey that needs to be combined.
If you would be so kind, here are a few more details that could be added:
Translator: G. Aurelio Privitera
Contributor: Alfred Heubeck (wrote the introduction), Donato Loscalzo (cured the indices)
ISSN: 2421-0773
Publisher: Fabbri Centauria
Number of pages: 820
Edition: La Grande Biblioteca dei Classici Latini e Greci
Description: (taken from the back cover) L'Odissea è l'opera che più ha influito sulla psicologia e sulla letteratura europee: senza il racconto omerico Cervantes, Defoe, Stevenson, Kafka, Joyce non avrebbero scritto i loro capolavori. È il poema epico al quale l'Occidente ha affidato il senso più profondo della ricerca, del viaggio, della fantasia, del sogno, della lucidità, dell'ironia, della maschera, dell'infinita capacità di metamorfosi: esso riveste una posizione preminente e un'importanza senza eguali nella formazione dell'identità occidentale. Il testo omerico viene qui presentato nella traduzione di G. Aurelio Privitera, estremamente fedele alla lettera, al tono, alla lentezza e alle improvvise concetrazioni dello stile di Omero.
Language: Italian-Greek
This is the publisher's website, even though there isn't much information to be found. On the other hand, on the collection's Facebook page they've uploaded a downloadable cover image that could be added.
My thanks.


message 2: by Susie (new) - added it

Susie (dragonsusie) | 2469 comments Looks like someone added the additional authors, but have added Homer as the primary author and combined with the other editions. Language should be "multiple" being as it's in Italian and Greek.


Marcella (marcellaviale) | 44 comments Thank you (and the anon!) for all your help.
If you could update the cover image as well, I'd be really grateful. Again, thanks!

Susie (dragonsusie) | 2469 comments Hmmm, yes, the image is quite tiny, but it appears to be that small on the publisher's website as well: http://www.centauria.it/immagini_oper.... If you can provide us with another acceptable source (the list can be found here), then we can updated it.
