Propertius: Elegies I: Classical Studies

Autor Propertius R.A. Buttimore, R.I.V. Hodge
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 sep 2002
Propertius' celebration of his love for Cynthia broke new ground in Latin poetry: sensuous, passionate, witty, yet complex and allusive. The appeal of his 'Monobiblos' (Book I) is direct and immediate but his profound grasp of the violent and contradictory emotions of the relationship pushed his language into new areas and new forms. So he is a difficult and important poet, with the kind of difficulty that appeals to modern readers. This edition is designed to serve two different kinds of readers. For those who are not Latin specialists there is an elegant but literal translation alongside the Latin text, with a critical essay on each poem to lead the reader into the richness of the Latin. On the other hand Latinists will find here new light on the text itself. Above all, the edition is dedicated to reading poetry as poetry.

Recenzii

'Hutchinson gives us a tightly written account of the important issues in the last book, laying out with impressive brevity in his introduction the connections between the book and its predecessors … this is a splendid example of the benefits of the detailed commentary as a genre.' The Times Literary Supplement
'Hutchinson's commentary offers a wealth of information on everything the reader needs for getting some grip on Propertius' intricate Latin and what he, probably or at least possibly, intends to express … Both Gregory Hutchinson and his readers deserve to be congratulated for this book, which honours the eminent scholar to whose memory it has been dedicated, Oliver Lyne.' Mnemosyne
'… this new edition and commentary of Book IV is most welcome: it does not only form an introduction to Propertius' last collection, but should also stimulate reflection on the text and permit well-informed interpretations. … dedicated to the late Professor R.O.A.M. Lyne … there is no doubt that he would have been deeply pleased with such a remarkable tribute.' Bryn Mawr Classical Review
