Classics and Translation cover

D. S. Carne-Ross was one of the finest critics of classical literature in English translation after Arnold. More than four decades of Carne-Ross's writings are represented in this volume, which includes criticism of both ancient and modern writers, in addition to historical-critical studies of translation, discriminating analyses of translators widely read today, and investigations in the relationship between translation, criticism, and literary creation. This book will appeal to a wide audience including classicists, specialists in reception and translation studies, students of comparative literature, and literary readers.

'Classics and Translation...offers...a very much welcome addition to the translation studies and classical reception studies canons...Classics and Translation is that rare essay collection worth reading, and enjoying, cover to cover.' -- Simon Perris * Bryn Mawr Classical Review *
