4.0 out of 5 stars Poetic interpretation, September 5, 2009
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Eclogues of Virgil: A Bilingual Edition (Paperback)
A lovely poetic interpretation of the Eclogues, but remember that it is a poetical interpretation. This is not a literal translation and Ferry takes some liberties with what might be Virgils' intentions to maintain a certain level of poetical language. If one is well acquainted with Virgil's shepherds, Ferry's might seem a little less vivid. I prefer Ferry's translations of Horace as being more dynamic.
