Virgil The Aeneid
Vintage 16-Jun-90 0679729526 / 9780679729525 Paperback Very Good
0679729526 Review """"Fitzgerald's is so decisively the best modern Aeneid that it is unthink able that anyone will want to use any other version for a long time to come .""""--New York Review of Books """"From the beginning to the end of this English poem...the reader will fi nd the same sure control of English rhythms, the same deft phrasing, and an energy which urges the eye onward.""""--The New Republic """"A rendering that is both marvelously readable and scrupulously faithful .... Fitzgerald has managed, by a sensitive use of faintly archaic vocabula ry and a keen ear for sound and rhythm, to suggest the solemnity and the mo vement of Virgil's poetry as no previous translator has done (including Dry den).... This is a sustained achievement of beauty and power.""""--Boston G lobe Review """"Fitzgerald's is so decisively the best modern Aeneid that it is unthink able that anyone will want to use any other version for a long time to come .""""--New York Review of Books """"From the beginning to the end of this English poem...the reader will fi nd the same sure control of English rhythms, the same deft phrasing, and an energy which urges the eye onward.""""--The New Republic """"A rendering that is both marvelously readable and scrupulously faithful....
