Sinopsis

"It is always a real pleasure to read a translation which adheres to one basic, important principle, to reflect faithfully what the poet says. Professor Cook's translation does just that.... This is a literal translation, following the original line for line. These lines scan easily and move rapidly, thus reproducing one of the special delights of Homeric style.... Recommended highly." -Francis D. Lazenby, Classics Department, University of Notre Dame

What it is about (power, defiance, art, love, abuse, grief, rape, war, beauty, and so on) is as changeable as the beings that inhabit its pages. The sustained thread is power and how it transforms us, both thos...

Por decirlo con otras palabras: la lectura de la Eneida es muy recomendable en medio del huracán, y a ser posibl...
