Poetry by individual poets

Paperback. Of all the great classical love poets, Propertius is surely one of those with most immediate appeal for the twentieth-century reader. His poetry centres on a helpless infatuation for his sinister mistress, Cynthia, and it is analysed with a tormented but witty grandeur in all its changing moods - from ecstasy to suicidal despair. Translator(s): Lee, Guy. Series: Oxford World's Classics. Num Pages: 240 pages. BIC Classification: 2ADL; DCF. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 196 x 129 x 15. Weight in Grams: 180.
