It helps to have prior knowledge of the Greek histories and myths because many of these short poems and fragments are about such things. The translation was well done and helpful, though I have nothing to compare it. I read all of the entries, and some of them were more entertaining than others. Overall it was OK. This is a work for someone invested in the Ancient Greeks or appreciates poetry of all sorts.
