Stand in the Trench, Achilles: Classical Receptions in British Poetry of the Great War (Classical Presences) ReviewThe night I heard about this book, I could barely sleep. I love the War Poets of WWI, I love the Greeks, and I love the lectures of Prof. Vandiver (her lectures are available from The Teaching Company). Talk about an intersection of delights! Would it live up to my desires?
Having read several books on the British literature of WWI (starting with The Great War and Modern Memory when I was in college), this was the most enlightening so far. Full of fascinating tidbits to support her conclusions, well edited, a lovely long read, and did I mention the great footnotes. (I'm a softie for good footnotes, and they were such a nice icing on a well-frosted cake.) It is a serious book, one that rewards a careful reader, but not full of specialized nomenclature known only to grad students. Give us more, Lizzie!
(And if you've heard her lectures, you can hear her mellow Floridian accent run through the whole thing.)Stand in the Trench, Achilles: Classical Receptions in British Poetry of the Great War (Classical Presences) Overview
