NISETICH, F., The Poems of Callimachus. Oxford University Press, 2001. 406p. Hardback. The translations of the intact poems (hymns and epigrams) are neat and well crafted; those of the more important fragments are not only careful but illuminatingly glossed, where possible, by reconstructive explanations; and the whole enterprise is rounded out with extensive notes and an annotated index of names. Nisetich has managed to do what some would have thought impossible, to make the reading of Callimachus in translation both attractive and intriguing Greece & Rome 25/06/2002 (Publisher's information). € 142.67 (New) (Printed on Demand) (approx. delivery time: 4 weeks) ISBN: 9780198147602
