Gale's anthology of works, includes the
Βιβλιοθήκη , also known as the
Bibliotheca of Pseudo-Apollodorus, a compendium of Greek myths and heroic legends, arranged in three books, generally dated to the first or second century AD
The author was traditionally thought to be Apollodorus of Athens, but that attribution is now regarded as false, and so "Pseudo-" was added to Apollodorus.
never the less it has been called "the most valuable mythographical work that has come down from ancient times".
The first mention of the work is by Photius in the 9th century. It was almost lost in the 13th century, surviving in one now-incomplete manuscript, which was copied for Cardinal Bessarion in the 15th century.
Although the Bibliotheca is undivided in the manuscripts, it is conventionally divided into three books. Part of the third book, which breaks off abruptly in the story of Theseus, has been lost. Photius had the full work before him, as he mentions in his "account of books read" that it contained stories of the heroes of the Trojan War and the nostoi, missing in surviving manuscripts Generally clean copy; occasional toning and odd spotting, repaired paper fault, to lower margins of Rrii,Ssii,Ttii,Vvii,Xxii,Yyii, Zzii, AAaii; Printers crease to outer edge of NNniii just touching text. Despite lacking the 16 pages of Tables which the printer obviously discarded as they had no collation or pagination marks, the texts and Gale's notes and scholia, are complete.
