Works and Days and Theogony (Hackett Classics)

<p>“This is by far the best rendering of Hesiod’s poems in print. The translation is fully accurate but so readable one doesn’t want to stop; it exactly captures Hesiod’s rustic wisdom, his humour and his cautious pessimism. . . . Clear brief notes and a glossary make this a must for introductory courses: students will love it."<br />--Richard Janko, <i>University College, London</i></p>
