Virgil's masterpiece, one of the greatest works in Western
literature, was written in Latin, between 29 and 19 BCE, recalling
events after the Fall of Troy over 1200 years before, as told in
the famous Homeric epics of Greek literature the Iliad and the
Odyssey. The great adventures of Aeneas' flight from Troy and the
prophesy of his founding of a great city, linked Roman dynasty to
the legends of a heroic past, bringing myth and history to bear in
the politics of the Roman Empire. Flame Tree Gothic Fantasy,
Classic Stories and Epic Tales collections bring together the
entire range of myth, folklore and modern short fiction.
Highlighting the roots of suspense, supernatural, science fiction
and mystery stories, the books in Flame Tree Collections series are
beautifully presented, perfect as a gift and offer a lifetime of
reading pleasure.
This critical edition of the Latin text of Vergil s Bucolica and
Georgica is informed by recent research on the author s style as
well as the oldest manuscript versions of his works."

A new edition of the Aeneid requires not only a systematic and
reliable assessment of the text, but also a satisfactory and, if
possible, complete description of the manuscriptsa (TM)
transmission.Here, not only were the seven Late Antique codices
studied anew, but the recensio was also extended by drawing on
sources from the Carolingian Age only some of which were
incorporated by earlier editors. To this end eight tesimonies which
had never been studied previously were collated. As a result the
reader has access to an apparatus criticus which is mainly
dedicated to textual matters.
