Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents Virgil's didactic epic poem on farming in ancient Rome, covering a wide range of agricultural topics such as viticulture, horticulture, animal husbandry, and beekeeping. Part of a trio of didactic poems Virgil composed under the patronage of Maecenas and Augustus, this book occupies a unique position within the Western literary canon. The author employs the epic form to elevate the quotidian labor of farming, celebrating the significance of agriculture to Roman life, the state, and the gods. Drawing on Hesiod's Works and Days and Lucretius' On the Nature of Things, Virgil advances the tradition of didactic poetry in Latin literature. In doing so, he offers insights into agricultural practices of his era and explores profound themes such as humanity's relationship with nature, the challenges of rural life, and the rewards of cultivating the land.
