The poet Virgil remains the most significant and influential figure
in Latin literature, and this expanded and updated Companion covers
his life, work, and reception from antiquity to the present. The
Aeneid, the Eclogues, the Georgics, and the Appendix Vergiliana are
all discussed, as are art, history, politics, and philosophy;
Virgil's literary style is carefully explored along with poetic
traditions before and since, and chapters engage with his poems and
their reception from perspectives including intertextuality,
narratology, gender theory, philology and historicism. Leading
authors cover topics from translations and commentaries to genre,
authority, and characterisation, providing revised and updated
recommendations for further reading. This volume is an accessible
introduction to Virgil and his legacy for students and teachers,
while also providing wide-ranging and in-depth investigations that
will appeal to scholars of classical literature and other
disciplines.
