“Unique to this work are the Comments, interspersed at regular intervals, on the names of divinities, the movement of the plot, other versions of the myths. . . . These notes should reduce the frustrations of teaching Hesiod in translation and invite students to appreciate the richness of detail in [Hesiod’s] poetry.”—Classical Outlook
