      Just published , in Svo , prico ISs . cloth , HOMER ' S ILIAD , translated almost literally into the Spenserian Stanza ; with Notes . By W . G . T . BARTER . , " Mr . Barter iutroduces his performance with an exceedingly well-written preface . "—Gr / o & e . To transform the great Epic of Homer into a really readable English poem , without destroying its idiomatic character , was a task as yet to toe accomplished . The problem has been solved -with admirable skill and eminent success by the author of the present volume . Keeping close not only to thoughts but to the expressions of the original poem , hehas reproduced them in a thoroughly English garb , in the Spenserian stanza , of all tlie varied forms of English versification by far the best adapted for heroic poetry , lhe English reader , ignorant of the Hellenic tonguo , may here read Greek poetry , with its characteristic beauti « s scarcely diminished by tho process , in his own idiom , and bo translated in thought to the scenes and events which the Mfeoni bard embodied in his immortal lays . "—John Bull . London Longman , Bkoivk , Ghees , and Longmaus .
