THE INFERNO: A New Translation
, , trans. from the Italian by Anthony Esolen. . Modern Library, $24.95 (528pp) ISBN 978-0-679-64261-9
A veteran translator of Lucretius and Tasso, Esolen ornaments his dual-language edition with Doré illustrations, some rhyme and blank verse—and the results hold their own among the many underworld competitors: "Midway upon the journey of our life/ I found myself in a dark wilderness,/ for I had wandered from the straight and true." A number of texts crucial to Dante, and some by him, appear in appendices; a fulsome section of notes is also included.
