Introduction Hesiod's Works Works and Days Theogony The Homeric Hymns The Battle of the Frogs and the Mice Index
Synopsis
Winner of the 2005 Harold Morton Landon Translation Award from the Academy of American Poets. In Works of Hesiod and the Homeric Hymns , highly acclaimed poet and translator Daryl Hine brings to life the words of Hesiod and the world of Archaic Greece. While most available versions of these early Greek writings are rendered in prose, Hine's illuminating translations represent these early classics as they originally appeared, in verse. Since prose was not invented as a literary medium until well after Hesiod's time, presenting these works as poems more closely approximates not only the mechanics but also the melody of the originals. This volume includes Hesiod's Works and Days and Theogony , two of the oldest non-Homeric poems to survive from antiquity. Works and Days is in part a farmer's almanac--filled with cautionary tales and advice for managing harvests and maintaining a good work ethic--and Theogony is the earliest comprehensive account of classical mythology--including the names and genealogies of the gods (and giants and monsters) of Olympus, the sea, and the underworld. Hine brings out Hesiod's unmistakable personality; Hesiod's tales of his escapades and his gritty and persuasive voice not only give us a sense of the author's own character but also offer up a rare glimpse of the everyday life of ordinary people in the eighth century BCE. In contrast, the Homeric Hymns are more distant in that they depict aristocratic life in a polished tone that reveals nothing of the narrators' personalities. These hymns (so named because they address the deities in short invocations at the beginning and end of each) are some of the earliest examples of epyllia , or short stories in the epic manner in Greek. This volume unites Hine's skillful translations of the Works of Hesiod and the Homeric Hymns--along with Hine's rendering of the mock-Homeric epic The Battle of the Frogs and the Mice --in a stunning pairing of these masterful classics.

    Stan Getz/Joao Gilberto with Antonio Carlos Jobim 180G Deluxe Gatefold Black NEW exactly as described and pictured in the listing. Careful packing and fast shipping. Reasonable shipping costs. A good value for a 180G vinyl pressing. This is a fantastic album that I have on CD, and this vinyl album was purchased as a gift to pass along. A good Seller to do business with. Thank you!

    Cards arrived on time, in good quality/condition, as described, and were at fair/market price. Seller even recognized I bought multiple cards from them and refunded me shipping costs after the first since they’d send them in one package. Would definitely purchase from this seller again!

    Wow! I just received my Conair replacement velvet rollers. The order was very securely packaged and the rollers look like new! I was hesitant to purchase a previously owned product like this, but these honestly look like they've never been used. Seller took extra care in restoring the item and packaging it for mailing. Very happy with this purchase and highly recommend this seller - I'd definitely purchase from them again. I'm a happy camper!
