Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

This deluxe edition of Virgil's epic poems, recounting the wanderings of Aeneas and his companions after the fall of Troy, contains an introduction by Allen Mandelbaum and fourteen powerful renderings created by Barry Moser to illustrate this volume.

Nota de la solapa:

"A brilliant translation; the only one since Dryden which reads like English verse and conveys some of the majesty and pathos of the original."—Bernard M. W. Knox

"Mandelbaum has . . . given us a contemporary experience of the masterpiece, at last."—David Ignatow

"The book has a wonderful, detailed liveliness in every line."—Robert Fagles

"Comes closer to the impossible goal of perfection than any of the numerous efforts that have poured out of American and British presses since World War II."—William S. Anderson
