The paper traces the citation techniques used in the dedicatory note and the preface of the short story collection Έρωτος Αποτελέσματα (1792). Apart from spotting the texts and the dictionaries used by the writer, we try to trace the techniques of adaptation used in the texts and compare them, as a means to specify the identity of the writer of the preface. Additionally, there are some thoughts on the identity of the person to whom I.K., dedicates the volume, namely St. Ioannovici.
