Recenzii

"Even a cursory reading of this new translation of Silius Italicus’ Punica by Antony Augoustakis and Neil Bernstein, two of the major scholars of Flavian epic, reveals that it aims for readability, comprehensibility, accessibility, and relevance while it endeavors to provide for a version in English that is as faithful as possible to the meaning of the original Latin text... This new translation of Augoustakis and Bernstein constitutes a perceptive commentary and preliminary interpretation of Silius Italicus’ Punica. The sensitivity of these scholar-translators to both the linguistic diversity of the Latin text and its contemporary themes inform their accurate translation at every stage." - Bryn Mawr Classical Review
"The publication marks a major milestone in the study of Flavian epic and should help to bring the Punica to a far broader audience of both students and scholars in Classics as well as in related fields." - The Classical Review
