This is by far the best rendering of Hesiod's poems in print. The
translation is fully accurate but so readable one doesn't want to
stop; it exactly captures Hesiod's rustic wisdom, his humour and
his cautious pessimism. . . . Clear brief notes and a glossary make
this a must for introductory courses: students will love it.
--Richard Janko, University College, London
Spare, muscular, pithy, no otiose rhetoric. --Peter Green,
University of Texas at Austin
These are both fine translations, each one suited to the character
of the respective work. --Charles Segal, Harvard University
