Ludovico Annibale Della Croce
Appearance
Ludovico Annibale Della Croce (Latin: L. Annibalis Gruceii; 1499–1577) was a Milanese writer and classical scholar of the Italian Renaissance. From a manuscript of the Greek romance Leucippe and Clitophon he translated the last four books (books 5–8) into Latin (Lyon, 1544, with a dedication to Don Diego Hurtado de Mendoza). This text was the basis of French (Paris, 1545) and Italian (Venice, 1546) translations.[1]
