Sull'Autore
(ger) There are differen Apollodoros' - the Mythologist, the Orator and others.
(eng) Some surviving manuscripts of the "Bibliotheca" give the author's name as Apollodorus, and scholars from Photius onwards have mistakenly identified this work with Apollodorus of Athens (born circa 180 BCE). However, since the "Bibliotheca" cites a Roman author, Castor the Annalist, of the 1st century BCE, the text could not have been written by Apollodorus of Athens. The author, therefore, is sometimes referred to as either Pseudo-Apollodorus or Scriptor Bibliothecae. There do not seem to be any works on LT by Apollodrus of Athens at this time.

According this edition's translator, J. G. Frazer, this text was originally attributed to Apollodorus of Athens, who was born around 180 B.C., but the text was actually written by someone else during the first or second century A.D. This edition is heavily annotated, and you get the original Greek text and English translation side-by-side. Even if, like me, you can't read ancient Greek, it still looks cool, and makes you look smart when people see you reading it.
