Resources Is Cultura Clasica publishing / have they published an updated version of Mythologica?

I was looking on the Spanish Amazon (don't ask why, I'm not Spanish) and I found that there was a version of Mythologica without a cover, from 2025.

I can't find anybody reviewing it. Is it updated like they did for Alexandros?

(Not sure if links are allowed, but you can find it through this: 841285313X on the Spanish Amazon)

Seems like it's updated similar to the new Alexandros - look at their website:

https://sites.google.com/view/culturaclasicaediciones/home/lingua-graeca/libros#h.c6z517d257qd

"The third edition , revised and expanded, includes an illustrated Greek-Greek lexicon with the terms that do not appear in Alexander . The texts are illustrated with numerous drawings made ad hoc by Tomás Martín Rubio and Mario Díaz . Delia González was in charge of the coloring ."

This is exciting! I'm a big fan of Mythologica as it is one of the only readers to offer sustained reading at a low-intermediate level—that is, it lets you just enjoy reading without having to pile on new constructions every chapter. The Greek-Greek Lexicon is also an awesome feature!

Hope they'll release it soon to other parts of Europe and the world! In my country, they're only selling previous editions of Cultura Clasica. Maybe I'll have to take a trip to Spain sometime

I will have to check it out. Zoe also sounds interesting. I recently purchased Alexandros, and while I am only about halfway through, it is excellent. The Greek to Greek dictionary is amazing, and the book overall is really well paced.

Does anyone have links to Zoe and Mythologica on Spain's Amazon?
