Poems & Fragments

Alcaeus

Translated into English by R J Dent

Alcaeus was a fellow countryman and contemporary of Sappho, and his beautiful and delicate poetry is often overshadowed by Sappho’s reputation. R J Dent has now translated all of Alcaeus’s Poems & Fragments from ancient Greek into lively modern English in an attempt to rescue Alcaeus’s ethereal poetry from obscurity.

There is no other published translation of Alcaeus: Poems & Fragments in existence.

R J Dent’s sensitive modern English translation of the complete Poems & Fragments of Alcaeus is published by Circaidy Gregory Press and is available in paperback and e-book formats.
