description: Of all the great Latin poets, Catullus is perhaps the most acessible, as Ewan Whyte shows us with his brilliant new translation. Once reserved for 'dirty- minded'scholars and students, the earthy poetry of Catullus - sometimes bawdy and base, sometimes elegant, and never boring - gets the star treatment in this bilingual Latin/English edition.The increasing global popularity of Latin and Latin Studies mean that the time has come for a new generation to be introduced to this most fascinating and fun of great Latin writers.
