Inhaltsangabe
Excerpt from Pindar: The Olympian and Pythian Odes: With Notes Explanatory and Critical, Introductions, and Introductory Essays
In the occasional translations I have only aimed at reproducing the exact idea of the Greek, not at putting Pindar's sentiments into the most elegant and poetic English prose at my command; as I conceive that the office of interpreter cannot well be thoroughly combined with that of a tasteful translator.
The introduction to and analyses of the several odes are intended to give as clear a view as possible of the design of each poem and the relations of the several parts to each other and the whole. In some instances my ex planations are new.
As few take interest in the metre, I have, to save space, placed the metrical schemes all together after the introductory remarks on Pindar's metres.
