"Martha A. Malamud's translation is readable and dynamic. Her interpretive essay skillfully sets the literary context and is first-class in its close reading and interpretation. I learned a great deal. The Origin of Sin is a substantial and much-needed contribution to Prudentian studies, late antique studies, and even comparative literature."--Marc Mastrangelo, Dickinson College
"I am most impressed with the clarity and precision of this translation. Martha A. Malamud's verses render Prudentius' Latin into lucid and compelling measures that honor the literal meaning even as they imitate the cacophony, alliteration, and occasional clusters of half rhyme in the original. Throughout, Malamud demonstrates her keen ear for Prudentius' language."--Emily Albu, UC Davis
"Martha A. Malamud's translation of the Hamartigenia does justice to the poetic qualities of the original, while at the same time making the sense clear in what is at times a very difficult text. Malamud keeps the verse and the thought moving in a meter that is more natural to the English ear than any attempt to reproduce the hexameter in English would be."--Christopher Francese, Dickinson College
