Summary
Robert Fagles's translations of both the Iliad and Odyssey have sold hundreds of thousands of copies and become the standard translations of our era. Now, his stunning modern verse translation of Virgil's Aeneid is poised to do the same. This beautifully produced edition of the Aeneid will be eagerly sought by readers desiring to complete their Fagles collection—and the attention it receives will stimulate even greater interest in his translations of the Iliad and the Odyssey.
From the rear cover
Called 'the greatest poem by the greatest poet.' Virgil's 'Aeneid' is perhaps the most famous work in Latin literature. It tells the story of Rome's founding by the Trojan prince Aeneas after many years of travel. It contains many of the most famous stories of the Trojan War, while giving insight into the issues and beliefs of the Romans.
