Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Hesiod: The Poems and Fragments; Done Into English Prose With Introduction and Appendices
No apology seems needed for' a new English trans lation of Hesiod. I shall be glad if the present rendering lead to a more general study Of an author who, if only for his antiquity, must always possess a particular interest.
In some few cases of great doubt and difficulty I have consciously given a merely provisional version. These need not be specified here, and I hope to have an opportunity elsewhere of a full discussion.
