A specialist in Latin poets and the English poets who drew from them, Rudd offers an annotated edition of Johnson's (1709-84) poems in Latin and literal enough English prose translations of them that readers with even rusty or residual Latin should be able to follow the originals. The standard editions, Yale 194 and Oxford 1974, turned out to be flawed, he says. Distributed in the US by Associated University Presses.
