Description
The Aeneid, a masterpiece of ancient poetry, is now available in a revised and expanded translation. This substantial revision of Sarah Ruden's celebrated 2008 translation brings Vergil's epic poem to life in a way that is both faithful to the original and accessible to modern readers.
Ruden's line-for-line translation in iambic pentameter is an impressive achievement, and her revisions have rendered the poetry even more spare and muscular. This distinguished translation, accompanied by an introduction, notes, and glossary by leading Vergil scholar Susanna Braund, allows readers to experience the timeless power of Vergil's work.
With its exploration of national destiny and individual fates, The Aeneid continues to resonate deeply in our own time. This translation is a valuable resource for anyone interested in exploring the enduring themes and ideas of Vergil's epic poem.
