À propos de cet audio

The masterpiece of Rome's greatest poet, Virgil's Aeneid has inspired generations of readers and holds a central place in Western literature. The epic tells the story of a group of refugees from the ruined city of Troy, whose attempts to reach a promised land in the West are continually frustrated by the hostile goddess Juno. Finally reaching Italy, their leader, Aeneas, is forced to fight a bitter war against the natives to establish the foundations from which Rome is destined to rise. This magnificent poem, in the modern translation by Cecil Day Lewis, is superbly read by David Collins.

While the narration was rather fine, I found the translation a tad grating. The sentence “then Aeneas got really mad” really took me for a turn. In sum, it lacked a linguistic beauty I’ve found in other versions of the Aeneid.

Good Narration, Bad Translation
