Reviews

‘[B]eautifully produced... this book triumphantly completes the set of “romans d’antiquité”: the stories of Thebes, Troy, and Aeneas.’ Jane Bliss, Speculum ‘The translations themselves combine the virtues of being usable as a crib with being as fluent as is possible… If they encourage a wider readership for these romances, as they surely will, that is very much to the good.’ Helen Cooper, Archiv für das Studium der neueren Sprachen und Literaturen
