Comments:

«It is a magnificently ambitious venture. No self-respecting research library should fail to buy the volumes as they appear.» (M. L. West)      «Professor Adrados and his fellow workers have laid down systematic foundations for the creation of a major new Greek lexicon, not an easy task under the best of circumstances and particularly in these times.» (R. Renehan) «Ci troviamo di fronte al dizionario greco più completo di cui si possa disporre ... Il dizionario cui stanno lavorando gli specialisti spagnoli segna un progresso considerevole nei confronti dei precedenti» (L. Di Gregorio)      «Le DGE reflète l'état actuel des connaissances de la langue grecque. Par son étendue et par sa façon de l'élaboration, il permet une vue globale et homogène de la langue grecque dans toutes ses formes et dialectes, y compris le mycénien» (D. Muchnová)      «Les sondages que j'ai effectués pour vérifier, par exemple, l'intégration des données mycéniennes ou épigraphiques, montrent, dans l'ensemble, le grand sérieux de la rédaction.» (C. Brixhe)      «The printer too must be praised. Printing the DGE has been an exacting work which so far has been executed with pleasing success. Volume I is a pleasure to handle, and we must hope that the standards of production will be maintained in subsequent volumes.» (G. D. Kilpatrick)
