Elton cast this challenge in his ENGLAND UNDER THE TUDORS:"For some reason which has never been satisfactorily explained, Henry permitted his son and heir to be brought up by reformist tutors . . . ." Can someone direct me to the scholarship that has best met this challenge? Collinson, Loades, and Haigh come to mind, but I'm not as current as I'd like. Can someone also direct me to a more appropriate list for this question? All the best, R.A. Cantrell <This email address is being protected from spambots.

In > fact, there is NO object in this clause, 'loved' being used as an > intransitive verb, here. As I asked earlier: Where is the ambiguity if > not in the use of 'writ' (abbreviation of 'written') as a past tense > verb rather than its normal use as a past participle? > > Paul E. Doniger The verb could be transitive with the subject I. For that matter "ever" could be read as either at one time or forever.

You need JavaScript enabled to view it. > Date: Monday, 11 Feb 2002 10:21:32 -0800 (PST) Subject: Metamorphoses I am currently seeking the best translation of Ovid's Metamorphoses available. I have heard conflicting reports on the A.D. Melville and the Mandelbaum versions, Oxford Press and Harvest respectively. I know I should really just revisit my Latin but if you could have only one translation, which would you have?
