Works and Days Hesiod
A new verse translation by award-winning poet Alicia Stallings of one of the foundational works of ancient GreeceThe ancient Greeks revered Hesiod, believing he had beaten Homer in a singing contest and that after his dead body was thrown to sea, it was brought back by dolphins. Ostensibly written by the poet to chide his lazy brother, it recounts the story of Pandora's box and humanity's decline since the Golden Age, and can be read as a celebration of rural life and a hymn to work. His Works and Days is one of the most important early works of Greek poetry.
With more than 1,800 titles, Penguin Classics Alicia Stallings's new translation breathes new life into Hesiod's work, rendering its vivid poetry for a new generation of classics readers.For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.
