The Odes of Anacreon

Meer over het boek

First published in 1893, The Odes of Anacreon is a translation of the works of the ancient Greek poet Anacreon. Known for his witty and often bawdy songs celebrating love, wine, and the pleasures of life, Anacreon was a popular figure in ancient Greece and Rome. Bullen's translation captures the charm and humor of Anacreon's poems, and this new edition includes a critical introduction and notes by classicist John Davidson.
