This book makes available in convenient form a selection of seminal
articles on the Roman poet Lucan's grim epic, written in the time
of Nero, on the world-changing civil war between Caesar and Pompey
in the mid first century BC. The selection enables the reader of
Lucan's work to trace the emergence of vital critical perspectives
and controversies and the diverse approaches that have been applied
to them. Five essays appear in English for the first time, and
quotations from Latin and Greek have been translated. A specially
written Introduction, by Susanna Braund, provides an up-to-date
guide to scholarship on Lucan and to the history of the reception
of the poem.
