Congratulations to Tara whose translation of Ovid was warmly commended by the judges of the Sam Hood Translation Competition run by Omnibus magazine. There were a huge number of entries this year, many of which were of an exceptionally high standard, so Tara’s commendation was a real achievement and a recognition of both linguistic accuracy and imaginative response—qualities which underpin all the best translations of Classical texts!
