Note 107 — INTRODUCTION TO THE GALATEA.

Herman Oelsner translation

Rius (op. cit., vol. ii., 319) mentions three editions of Pellicer's translation, the latest being dated 1830. A reprint is said to have been issued at Paris in 1841. On p. xvii of the 1814 edition—the only one within my reach—Casiano Pellicer suggests that Cervantes introduced Diego Durán into the Galatea under the name of Daranio: "Puedese presumir que el Daranio, cuyas bodas refiere tan menudamente, sea Diego Durán, á quien supone natural de Toledo ó de su tierra, y alaba también en su canto de Calíope de gran poeta."
