Vitsentzos Kornaros. Ποίημα ἐρωτικὸν λεγόμενον Ἐρωτόκριτος συντεθὲν ἀπὸ τὸν..., εὐγενέστατον..., Venice, Nikolaos Glykys, 1792.
The first edition of the Erotokritos was printed in Venice by Antonio Bortoli in 1713 and was reprinted at least ten times before the present one. It is the most significant work of poetry of Cretan literature, written by Vitsentzos Kornaros, probably in about 1600. The poet came from the Cornaro family of the Venetian nobility although he had become Hellenized and lived in Crete (in Sitia) as he himself informs us.
