Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
This volume contains a new edition of the first two books of the Anthology of Joannes Stobaeus (5th c. CE) that will replace the outdated one by C. Wachsmuth published in 1884.
After having drawn up a detailed list of all the Greek manuscripts of the Anthology, Tiziano Dorandi analyzes the relationships between these witnesses in order to determine their importance in the establishment of Stobaeus' text. A stemma codicum will be drawn for this purpose.
The first two books are preserved in the manuscripts essentially in a largely epitomised redaction. We can get an idea of the textual state prior to the epitome thanks to Photius and several eclogues that have come to us by other sources and in which it is possible to discern probable traces of the structure and content of chapters that are now incomplete or lost in their entirety.
For the first time, the epitome (Recensio breviata) will be published in its own right, separate from the remains that we can assume will return portions of the text closer to the original redaction (Recensio plenior). The Greek text is accompanied by an apparatus reserved for manuscript readings and for conjectures.
This new edition will give an entirely new and more faithful idea of the first half of the Stobean Anthology.
