Omschrijving
Angelo Poliziano (1454–1494) was one of the great scholar-poets of the Renaissance and a leading figure in the Florence during the Age of the Medici. This I Tatti edition contains all of his Greek and Latin poetry (with the exception of the Silvae in ITRL 14) translated into English for the first time.
Knox’s first-rate talent as a translator remains in evidence on every page, even and especially when the text of more than a few poems is unapologetically risqué. Kudos to Peter Knox for pulling no punches. And plaudits to him for superb work all around.
