  • Milton and the Transformation of Ancient Epic
    Charles Martindale
    Milton has long been recognised as being among English poets most indebted to ancient literature, but the range and depth of that debt have rarely been explored. Here Martindale examines the use Milton made of other ancient poets, notably Homer, Ovid and Lucan, and finds some surprising elements in the style of 'Paradise Lost' - Horace for example. He is primarily concerned wit...

  • To Homer Through Pope
    H.A. Mason
    As fewer and fewer people learn to read ancient Greek, there is a need for a critical study of the most influential translations that have been made from the major works of ancient Greek literature. Mason’s monograph offers exactly that for readers of the Iliad and the Odyssey. More particularly, he presents a persuasive argument for reading Alexander Pope’s translation, his ac...

  • Plato
    J.B. Skemp
    Plato’s "Politicus" (Statesman) stands, both in date and in political thought, between the "Republic" and the "Laws". It presents his thought at the point when he was chastened by disappointment with his attempts to put theory into practice at Syracuse. The dialogue reflects contemporary controversies on the method of definition; but its logical exercises and the impressive ’my...

  • Terence
    Terence
    The lively action and well-constructed plot of the 'Phormio' make it an ideal introduction to Terence and to the Roman comic genre. It well illustrates Terence’s subtle handling of plot and character - two fathers, two wayward sons in love, the latter abetted by the scheming slave and by the parasite who gives his name to the play. This edition, recognising that the simplicity ...

    In a poem written in exile, Ovid pictures his latest book in conversation with his previous volumes, united in the bookcase containing his collected works back in Rome.
