Reviews"The importance of Lattimore's skill and careful work and of his highly-informed literary sense is that you do indeed come away with a new and strong sense of who the reporters are. And when you know that, it expands the meaning of the Story."--Richard Dyer,The Boston Globe "Without the gaudy beauties of the King James version or the overly hip sound of some modern editions, Lattimore'sNew Testamentpossesses an austere, moving plainness, a willingness to shape long sentences, and an admirable clarity."--The Washington Post Book World "The important news is that Mr. Lattimore has provided a... self-consistent, personal, sanely literal version of the four texts most central to our tragic history. He has avoided the twin shoals of caprice and ego, and his dedication to the line of the originals has produced an air of solidity and reliability often missing from single efforts."--Reynolds Price "An impressive, scholarly new version by the eminent translator."--The New York Times Book Review, "The importance of Lattimore's skill and careful work and of his highly-informed literary sense is that you do indeed come away with a new and strong sense of who the reporters are.

Good but description off
I knew what this is, when I bought it. However this isn't the King James Version, it's a translation by Richmond (not Richard) Lattimore of the New Testament. It's interesting to see how Mr. Lattimore translated the Greek in the New Testament because he didn't have a theological axe to grind. He eventually joined a church after translating the Gospel of Luke.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu
