"Daryl Hine's translations fromThe Greek Anthologyare the liveliest, frequently loveliest, and certainly the most libidinous versions of these celebrated texts that I've ever seen. I know from years of teaching that American students, even of the Classics, are quite vague about what The Greek Anthology was really like--particularly the salacious aspect of those poems. Hine alone gives a fair (or is that foul) sample."--Richard Howard, Columbia UniversityHine, Daryl is the author of 'Puerilities Erotic Epigrams of the Greek Anthology' with ISBN 9780691088204 and ISBN 0691088209.
