    Editorial Review:

    Product Description:
    Long a master of the crafts of Homeric translation and of rhapsodic performance, Stanley Lombardo now turns to the quintessential epic of Roman antiquity, a work with deep roots in the Homeric tradition. With characteristic virtuosity, he delivers a rendering of the Aeneid as compelling as his groundbreaking translations of the Iliad and the Odyssey, yet one that—like the Aeneid itself—conveys a unique epic sensibility and a haunting artistry all its own.

    W. R. Johnson’s Introduction makes an ideal companion to the translation, offering brilliant insight into the legend of Aeneas; the contrasting roles of the gods, fate, and fortune in Homeric versus Virgilian epic; the character of Aeneas as both wanderer and warrior; Aeneas’ relationship to both his enemy Turnus and his lover Dido; the theme of doomed youths in the epic; and Virgil’s relationship to the brutal history of Rome that he memorializes in his poem.

    A map, a Glossary of Names, a Translator’s Preface, and Suggestions for Further Reading are also included.
