Book Synopsis The Poems of Virgil, Translated Into English Verse by : James Rhoades
Book excerpt: The aim of James Rhoades was 'to produce a version of the Aeneid that should be in itself an English poem, and at the same time a faithful reflection of the original.' He succeeded, for his translation is both satisfactory to the purely English reader, and a reliable companion to the student of the Latin text.
