I'm starting to read a lot more than usual. I have kicked my hours watching TV a week from about 25 hours to around 4 or 5. I'd like to get into the classics like The Republic, Divine Comedy, etc....but there are quite a few translations out there. Anyone have any experience with them to suggest one? I've read quite a few things on Allan Blooms translation of the republic...some highly recommend it and others say it is trash.
