This is an edition of over 300 never-before-printed English translations of ancient Greek and Latin verse, selected from the surviving manuscripts of a 200-year period. They reveal a far broader, deeper, and richer culture of classical translation than previously apparent, with radical implications for classical reception and literary history.
