Accurate Translation, Excellent Footnotes

5 stars

This translation tries as hard as possible to stick to the original Greek. Though this can be hard to follow at times, it's useful as a reference for the original text. The footnotes are incredible, occasionally taking whole pages to give insight into Ancient Greek culture and the like. I would suggest an alternate translation for, for instance, performance, but this is great for academic use.
