David
Crump, Virgil. The Aeneid : Virgil's greatest hits. Quid Pro Books,
c2010. PA6807.A5C78
2010 This
version of The Aeneid, translated, condensed, and explained by Professor
David Crump, uses rhyme and a lively presentation to honor the spirit and
true intent of Virgil. It is now condensed to its essential and
best parts, with short bridge notes to explain the third or so of the
original that is omitted. Explanatory sidenotes and chapter guides place the
work and its famous author in historical, thematic, and political context,
and it has been translated for the modern ear, complete with the rhythms and
rhymes associated with poetry today. |

Elizabeth
Price Foley. The law of life and death. Harvard University Press,
2011. KF3827.D4F65
2011 This book examines the many, and surprisingly ambiguous, legal definitions of what counts as human life and death. The author explores the most contentious legal issues of our time—including cryogenics, feticide, abortion, physician-assisted suicide, brain death, vegetative and minimally conscious states, informed consent, and advance directives—across constitutional, contract, tort, property, and criminal law. |
