Produktbeschreibung
A concise guide to a vast literary landscape, English Translations From The Greek: A Bibliographical Survey offers a patient, illuminating path through centuries of translation, scholarship, and cultural exchange. This is not merely a catalogue of texts, but a cultivated journey through the evolution of english translation studies and the european scholarly tradition that shaped how we read ancient greek sources today. Kendall Foster's work distills a library of influence: a classical translation bibliography that maps who translated what, when, and why. The book speaks to both the curious reader and the serious scholar, revealing how translation source texts grew into a living, interwoven greek language translations that influenced philosophy, poetry, and history. The result is a greek literature compendium that illuminates methods, ideals, and pitfalls of past editors, making visible the historic threads behind today's academic reference collection and library reference guide. Though out of print for decades, Alpha Editions now restores this enduring standard for contemporary shelves. More than a reprint, this volume is a collector's item and a cultural treasure-carefully renewed for today's readers and for future generations of scholars, students, and lovers of ancient languages. Its precise, humane prose honours the craft of scholarly editing while inviting fresh engagement with classical studies bibliography, european intellectual heritage, and the enduring allure of ancient greek sources.
