Emily Wilson, whose 2017 translation of the Odyssey Christopher Nolan drew on for his new film, has brought Homer back from antiquity. One of the most celebrated translators in the world, she is reviving a fading academic discipline and shining with a harsh and brilliant light in the humanities’ gathering gloom. “The ancient Greeks teach one to be modern,” the poet and classicist A. E. Stallings observed. “They taught that to me and to Emily. It was time to strip away all the mannered layers—the tarnish of centuries—and she does that.

We sent the AP Stylebook, 58th Edition, to our printer this week.
Even though we update AP Stylebook Online throughout the year, it's a big undertaking to thoroughly review the manuscript.
You can see the results of all that hard work when our new book goes on sale on May 27.

From Edward R. Murrow’s broadcasts to today, CBS News Radio has been part of the foundation of American journalism. Murrow’s mic sits on display at the National Press Club as a reminder of that legacy. When an institution like that disappears, it’s a loss for the public & for journalism.
