First published in 1968, Virgil’s Aeneid is to help all who
approach the long and difficult poem seriously (in Latin or in
English) to read it with discerning appreciation. This is not a
handbook, nor is it a commentary: it is a critical description,
from a number of aspects, of a poetic structure. A detailed
analysis of the twelve books is preceded by a preliminary
exploration of the poem’s central purpose, a careful
reconstruction of the historical and artistic circumstances, and a
description of the main outlines of the poem’s structure; two
further chapters provide a discussion of a number of theoretical
problem and an analysis of the verbal fabric. This book will be of
interest to students of classical literature and history.
