Ora in una nuova avvincente traduzione in versi, Giasone e gli Argonauti (noto anche come Argonautica), è l'unico resoconto completo sopravvissuto del viaggio di Giasone sull'Argo alla ricerca del Vello d'oro aiutato dalla principessa maga Medea. Scritta nel III secolo a.C., questa storia epica di uno degli eroi più amati della mitologia greca, con la sua combinazione di fantastico e reale, il suo coinvolgimento con le tradizioni della scienza, dell'astronomia e della medicina, eroi alati e un vaso magico che parla, è davvero senza esatti paralleli nella letteratura greca classica o contemporanea ed è ora disponibile in una traduzione accessibile e coinvolgente. Apollonio di Rodi pubblicò la sua prima versione delle Argonautiche a metà del III secolo a.C. Alla fine della sua vita fu direttore della famosa Biblioteca di Alessandria, che era il principale deposito di tutta la letteratura e l'apprendimento dell'epoca. Aaron Poochigian, nato nel 1973, è un poeta e un professore associato di Classici presso la Ohio State University e ha tradotto l'edizione Penguin Classics di Stung with Love: Poems and Fragments di Sappho, così come opere di Eschilo e Arato. Vive a New York City. Benjamin Acosta-Hughes è professore di greco e latino presso la Ohio State University.
