The Extant Odes of Pindar The Extant Odes of Pindar

The Extant Odes of Pindar

Descrição da editora

It is as an attempt towards obviating the first of these hindrances to the study of Pindar, the difficulty of his language, that this translation is of course especially intended. In proportion to our familiarity not only with Hellenic mythology and history, but with Hellenic life and habits of thought generally, will be our readiness and facility in seizing the drift and import of what Pindar says, in divining what has passed through his mind: and in his case perhaps even more than in the case of other poets, this facility

will increase indefinitely with our increasing acquaintance with his works and with the light thrown on each part of them by the rest
