24 p. ; 22 cm (4to)General Notes
Herrera Navarro lists play under Luciano Francisco Comella although quotes “traducido libremente del idioma italiano al español por Luciano Francisco Comella.” Several editions simply state “por Luciano Francisco Comella, elevating his free translation to the level of authorship. The original French 1765 work Les Amans malheureux, ou le Comte de Comminge by François-Thomas-Marie de Baculard d'Arnaud became the basis of Giacomo Antonio Gualzetti’s Italian adaptation entitled Gli amori di Commingio. Comella’s work is the 1804 Spanish “free” translation from the Italian.
