The beginnings

Casa Editrice TORED s.r.l. was created in 2002 with the view to publishing the «I Frammenti degli Storici Greci» series, an edition of fragmentary Greek historians with apparatus criticus, translation, and full historical commentary.

The project was initiated within the Graduate Programme in Ancient History of the University of Rome «Tor Vergata» and is directed by Professor Eugenio Lanzillotta (University of Rome Tor Vergata).

To date three volumes have appeared; the general plan of the series features about fifty.

The series relies on the support of twenty-six universities, in Italy and abroad (including Leuven, Seville and Strasburg).

The volumes of the series that have appeared so far have been recognised as invaluable tools for any serious research library. After this first step, the Catalogue of Tored has gradually, and almost naturally, expanded in new directions, and new series have taken shape.

Special attention is given to the contribution of young scholars.
