Reseña del editor

Excerpt from P. Vergili Maronis Opera, Vol. 1: Introduction and Text

Tm: text of this edition (as of the former edition published by the Clarendon Press in 1882) is based Upon that of Ribbeck, with certain modifications, particularly in matters of orthography. It has already been issued in five Parts, with an abridgement of Mr. Papillon's original Introduction pre fixed to each Part but for the present complete edition the Introduction in its fuller form has been retained, after due revision. The Commentary has been revised throughout by both Editors, with the view of making it more generally useful to students of the Universities and in the higher forms of Schools.
