Reading Latin Poetry Aloud: A Practical Guide to Two Thousand Years of Verse
Wonderful selection of poems. Snodgrass's de/compositions of each poem illuminates the enduring qualities of the original. The book is divided into different sections that focus on particular characteristics of a poem. At the end of each section, Snodgrass offers commentary on how the original poems differ from his own takes. Some of his poems are good on their own, but not quite as good as the original. This is a wonderful book of poetry for anyone who wants to see why some poems are better than others or for anyone beginning their study of poetry at the high school or college level.
