John Conington's three-volume edition of The Works of Virgil, begun
in 1852, has long been unavailable except in rare second-hand sets.
The whole work is now being reissued in six affordable paperbacks,
with new introductions setting the commentary in its context. Well
into the twentieth century Conington's Virgil remained the sine qua
non for school and undergraduate students and their teachers;
Conington's commentary is remarkably close and uncompromising in
its engagement with the detail of Virgil's Latin, as well as its
literary sensitivity; it still has much to offer the modern reader.
This volume includes Virgil's text of the Aeneid Books VII-IX and
Conington's commentary on Books VII-IX; Conington's introduction to
Books VII-XII. It also includes Philip Hardie's general assessment
of Conington and Anne Rogerson's introduction to Conington's
Aeneid.
