Virgil (Paperback)

This volume is a replacement for "Greece and Rome New Survey on Virgil" by R.D. Williams. A brief introduction on historical and bibliographical contexts is followed by three chapters on each of Virgil's major works - the "Eclogues", "Georgics" and "Aeneid", providing both a critical survey of each poem and a guide to the present state of Virgil studies, with extensive bibliographical notes. A final chapter offers a close reading of the end of "Aeneid 5" as an object lesson in the practical criticism of a discrete section of text. Each chapter is designed both as a self-contained introduction to its subject and as a guide to further study.
