An influential German classical scholar and textual critic, Johann Carl Otto Ribbeck (1827 98) published several important works on Roman poetry, notably Geschichte der romischen Dichtung. His two volumes of Virgil's works (second edition, 1894 5) are reissued in this series. First published in 1875, the present work provides a detailed account of the emergence and development of Roman tragedy during the Republic. The book begins with an introduction that discusses how Greek tragedy served as a model for Roman writers. Ribbeck then goes on to outline the most important authors and their works. Among these are Livius Andronicus, celebrated as the father of Latin literature, and Quintus Ennius, regarded as the mediator between Greek and Roman poetry. The final sections of the book deal with the art form of Roman tragedy and its performance on stage."

This is the second edition of Virgil's works by the German classical philologist Otto Ribbeck, published in Leipzig in 1894-1895. It is solely a work of textual criticism, in which Ribbeck assembled what he believed to be the most reliable edition from different authorities. While it includes no commentary on the text by the editor, it is considered a work of great erudition, demonstrating immense scholarly knowledge of Virgil's work. It consists of four parts published in two volumes. Part 1 contains the Eclogues, a series of ten poems about idyllic rural life which borrows heavily from the Greek poet Theocritus' Idylls; and the Georgics, a poetical treatise in four books on farming and agriculture. Part 2 contains the first half (Books 1-6) of Virgil's great epic poem, the Aeneid, which covers the fall of Troy and Aeneas' journey to Italy.
