Recenzje

“Bernstein provides an updated English translation, modern but never colloquial, and substantially reliable… easily accessible even to a non-specialist audience who is passionate about Latin poetry. The translation is therefore worthy of becoming part of university courses on late Latin poetry.” - Bryn Mawr Classical Review
