But in David R. Slavitt's imaginative and appealing translations, they stand firmly on their own merits. Slavitt brings to this little-known body of verse a fresh voice, vividly capturing the tone and style of the originals while conveying a lively sense of fun.Joan Palevsky imprint in classical literature.Latin poetryTranslations into Englishaeneid.ancient and classical poetry.ancient classical.ancient greeks.ancient poems.ancient rome literature.ancient rome poems.booklovers.classical literary criticism.classical literature.classical poem collection.classical poetry.classical roman poet.eclogues.european literature.greek mythology.greek poems.historical literature.history.latin epics.latin interpretations.latin poems.latin verse translations.mythological poems.poem translations.poetry collection.poetry.verse.virgilian poems.Latin poetry871/.01Virgilauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut727867Slavitt David R.1935-801716MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910781687403321The gnat and other minor poems of Virgil3863871UNINA
