As a companion volume to Homer's Iliad (No. 166) and The Odyssey (No. 167), Virgil's Works takes a prominent place among the classics of antiquity on the Modern Library shelf. The prose translation by J. W. Mackail of The Aeneld, Eclogues and Georgics, complete in one volume, is acknowledgedly the most authentic, in letter and in spirit, of the extant renderings. Students will find this edition of immense aid in their studies and all lovers of classical literature will welcome it in its new, compact and inexpensive format. |
