ACCLAIM FOR THE HOLLANDER TRANSLATIONS
OF INFERNO AND PURGATORIO
* * *
“The Hollanders’ [translation] is probably the most finely accomplished and may well prove the most enduring.”
—R. W. B. Lewis, Los Angeles Times
“This is the translation for our time and probably beyond.”
—National Review
“The virtues of prose raised to a quiet, sometimes stunning elegance.… Reading Dante with Hollander could become addictive.”
—The Providence Journal
“There has seldom been such a useful [version] …. The Hollanders … act as latter-day Virgils, guiding us through the Italian text that is printed on the facing page.”
—The Economist
“[The Hollander Inferno] makes the poem accessible to the lay reader and appealing to the specialist: the translation is both faithful to the original and highly readable; the introduction and notes are dense without being overly scholarly.… A highly worthy new Inferno that is the mature fruit of years of scholarly, pedagogical, and creative work.”
—Choice
“A distinguished act of poetry and scholarship in one and the same breath, the Hollander Dante, among the strong translations of the poet, deserves to take its own honored place.”
—Robert Fagles, translator of The Illiad and The Odyssey
“The new Inferno … is both majestic and magisterial and the product of a lifelong devotion to Dante’s poetry and to the staggering body of Dante scholarship.… The Hollanders’ adaptation is not only an intelligent reader’s Dante, but it is meant to enlighten and move and ultimately to give us a Dante so versatile that he could at once soar to the hereafter and remain unflinchingly earthbound.”
—André Aciman, author of Out of Egypt
“A brisk, vivid, readable—and scrupulously subtle—translation, coupled with excellent notes and commentary. Every lover of Dante in English should have this volume.”
—Alicia Ostriker
“This new version of the Inferno wonderfully captures the concision, directness, and pungency of Dante’s style.… A grand achievement.”
—Richard Lansing, Professor of Comparative Literature, Brandeis University
“English-speaking lovers of Dante are doubly in the Hollanders’ debt:
first for this splendidly lucid and eminently readable version of Dante’s Hell, and second, for the provocative, elegantly written commentary.”
—John Ahern, Antolini Professor of Italian Literature, Vassar College
“This new Hollander translation deserves to sweep the field.… [The Hollanders] have produced an English text of remarkable poetic sensitivity while never traducing the original Italian or pretending to supplant Dante’s poem with one of their own.”
—John Fleming, Professor of English and Comparative Literature, Princeton University
“The Hollanders have rendered both the supple lyricism and the rich imagery of the Purgatorio with an admirably informed expertise.… A model for all translators.”
—Literary Review
