The English Poems, Paperback

Thomas Gray was the author of some of the most admired poems of the 18th century, the famous 'Elegy' among them, but his reputation continues to rest on a handful of masterpieces, while the rest of his work has faded from view. This book offers all of his poems in English - he wrote also in Latin and Greek - and his translations into English from Italian and Latin, together with a brief introduction and notes.
