This pivotal book of the "Aeneid" has Aeneas - like Odysseus in
"Odyssey XI" - visiting the Underworld. He is poised, as it were,
between the world of his 'Homeric' past, the wanderings he has
undergone in the poem's first half, and the destiny mapped out for
his descendants, which culminates in the age of Augustus and his
lost successor Marcellus. Aeneas is at once a figure of past,
present and future. This new edition replaces the long-serving
edition by Gould & Whiteley, making the book more accessible to
today's students and taking account of the most recent scholarship
and critical approaches to Virgil. It includes an introduction,
annotation to explain language and content, and a comprehensive
vocabulary.
