- Stanley Lombardo (classics, U. of Kansas) translated the famous Latin epic in 2005, and here offers an abridgments of that translation (which was also published by Hacket Publishing Co.) with summaries of the sections omitted. The blank-verse English is in readable vernacular, without archaisms. A glossary of names with pronunciation guides is provided and a list of further reading, but no notes or index. A trimmed down version of W. R. Johnson's (classics and comparative literature, U. of Chicago) is also included.
