riveduta

Riveduta is an Italian noun and adjective formed from the verb rivedere (to review, revise). As an adjective, feminine singular riveduta (masculine singular riveduto; plural riveduti/e) is used to describe texts that have been revised or reissued. In bibliographic and publishing contexts the term appears in phrases such as riveduta e corretta or edizione riveduta, indicating that the edition has been revised and corrected relative to a previous version. The marking is common on reprint editions, scholarly editions, and translations to signal updates in text, notes, or translation choices.

In Italian-language Bible translations, the word has taken on a conventional title role: translations are sometimes referred to by their designation 'La Riveduta' or 'Nuova Riveduta'. These refer to revision projects of earlier Italian Bible versions, undertaken by religious publishers or Bible societies to update language, terminology, and textual notes for contemporary readers. The exact origins and publishers of these revisions vary by country and organization, but the naming convention reflects the same concept: a revised edition intended to replace an older text.

Outside publishing, riveduta can appear in legal or scholarly contexts to indicate that a document has been revised, with 'riveduta' used as a past participle in adjectival constructions.
