Abstract

The Italian literary criticism of the 19th century was fully acquainted with the lyrical work of Rajmund Kunić recognizing his peculiar talent, smooth handling of verse and exquisite knowledge of versification. The critics’ views were almost unanimous in evaluating Kunić’s poetry and his translations of Palatine Anthology and Homer. Influenced by Vergilian poetic diction, he translated the Greek Anthology poets achieving outstanding results. In addition he produced one of the best translations of the Iliad into Latin.
