Author Description

Excerpt from Speeches From Thucydides In order to give a clearer idea of the degree of freedom allowed, Mr. Burn adds: 'the translation of the Republic of Plato by Davies and Vaughan, or that of the Phwdrus by Wright, or of the Oratz'om against Apkobus by Kennedy, may be taken as examples of the best style of ren dering.'
