Reviews
An immense amount of time and energy has clearly been expended on the creation of this new edition, to great advantage. This is likely to be the first print edition to provide the text of the Eneados in the form closest to Douglas' original. The material this volume contains is in itself sufficient to indicate that the complete edition will serve as an apt summation of Priscilla Bawcutt's long and highly distinguished career. This edition will no doubt generate, and serve as a foundational text for, work on the poem for many years to come. * Translation and Literature *
