{"product_id":"the-aeneid-9780226817286","title":"The Aeneid","description":"This volume represents the most ambitious project of distinguished poet David Ferry's life: a complete translation of Virgil's \u003ci\u003eAeneid\u003c\/i\u003e. Ferry has long been known as the foremost contemporary translator of Latin poetry, and his translations of Virgil's \u003ci\u003eEclogues \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eGeorgics \u003c\/i\u003ehave become standards. He brings to the \u003ci\u003eAeneid \u003c\/i\u003ethe same genius, rendering Virgil's formal, metrical lines into an English that is familiar, all while surrendering none of the poem's original feel of the ancient world. In Ferry's hands, the \u003ci\u003eAeneid \u003c\/i\u003ebecomes once more a lively, dramatic poem of daring and adventure, of love and loss, devotion and death. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The paperback and e-book editions include a new introduction by Richard F. Thomas, along with a new glossary of names that makes the book even more accessible for students and for general readers coming to the \u003ci\u003eAeneid\u003c\/i\u003e for the first time who may need help acclimating to Virgil's world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-10495817\"\u003eVirgil\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/08\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 480\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780226817286\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0226817288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-POE\"\u003ePoetry\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-POE008000\"\u003eAncient \u0026amp; Classical\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-HIS\"\u003eHistory\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-HIS002020\"\u003eAncient | Rome\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eDavid Ferry \u003c\/b\u003eis the author of a number of books of poetry and has translated several works from classical languages.
