And I’m willing to bet that when Sarah Ruden came out with her translation of the Aeneid in 2009 - the first by a woman - that it didn’t receive the same hoopla that this Emily Wilson translation is. https://www.amazon.com/Aeneid-Vergil/dp/0300151411/ref=sr_1_5?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1510982099&sr=1-5

Then again maybe Ruden didn’t get the star treatment because she’s a Christian, a Pauline apologist ( https://www.amazon.com/Paul-Among-People-Reinterpreted-Reimagined/dp/0385522576/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1510982099&sr=1-2 ) and a fan of St. Augustine ( https://www.amazon.com/Confessions-Modern-Library-Augustine/dp/0812996569/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1510982099&sr=1-1

Then again, maybe I’m just being unfair to Liberals. Maybe. Probably not.
