Bucolics and Georgics: Edited With Introduction and Notes (Classic Reprint)
Impresión bajo demandaLibrería: Forgotten Books, London, Reino Unido
Calificación del vendedor: 4 de 5 estrellas
Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores one of the most enduring monuments not only of Roman literary fame but also the fortunes of Rome itself: Virgil's Aeneid. The author explains that the story took ten or twelve years to write, and was not finished at the author's death. We learn that some scholars have suggested that the author arranged the story in prose before writing the different parts in no certain order. The author highlights scholarly consensus that any inconsistencies can be seen as a product of the work's origins rather than as reflections on the author's ability. Contextualizing the Aeneid as the final work of a poet who remained a central figure in literary circles for centuries, and whose works informed poets like Milton, the author highlights its significance as a repository of Roman religious and political thought. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781333902278_0
