Write a review
An audio anthology of love poems from the classical world, from the period 8th century BC to the 3rd century AD. Poets include Homer, Catullus, Sappho, Anacreon, Euripides, Virgil, Horace and Ovid. Translations include those by Dryden, Pope, Jonson, Marlowe and Byron.
Poetry by definition, achieves its effects by rhythm, sound patterns and imagery. One of the most popular areas of audiobooks -- spoken poetic form -- evokes emotions and sensations by bringing the voice of the poet to life in an appropriately intimate way, directly to the ear and mind of the listener. This anthology of Greek and Latin amorous verse features the works of legends including Homer, Sappho, Anacreon, Euripides, Theocritus, Moschus, Lucretius, Catullus, Virgil, Horace, Tibullus, Ovid and Juvenal.
