In True Names: Vergil and the Alexandrian Tradition of Etymological
Wordplay, James O'Hara presents a richly annotated, comprehensive
collection of examples of etymological wordplay in Vergil's Aeneid,
Eclogues, and Georgics. An extensive introduction on the
etymologizing of Vergil and his poetic forerunners places the poet
in historical context and analyzes the form and style of his
wordplay. In this new edition, O'Hara offers more than one hundred
new examples, and more than 250 new bibliographical items on
etymologizing in Vergil and other ancient authors, especially the
other Augustan poets. A substantial new Introduction reflects on
the wide scholarly response to the first edition, and it discusses
issues in scholarship on etymologizing from the last two decades.
