Virgil: Aeneid IV: Latin Texts

Editat de Dr Keith Maclennan Autor Virgil
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 sep 2007
In Book IV of Virgil's "Aeneid", one of the most studied books of that epic poem, Dido, queen of Carthage, is inflamed by love for Aeneas. The goddesses Juno and Venus plot to unite them, and their 'marriage' is consummated in a cave during a hunt. However, Jupiter sends Mercury to remind Aeneas of his duty, and the hero departs despite Dido's passionate pleas. At the end of the book, Dido commits suicide.

This classic edition of the Latin text of Book IV replaces the long-serving edition by Gould and Whiteley, making this book more accessible to today's students and taking account of the most recent scholarship and critical approaches to Virgil. It includes a substantial introduction, annotation to explain language and content, and a comprehensive vocabulary.

Recenzii

"...an altogether admirable commentary....really first-rate, distinguished work....Exemplary use of how parallels, borrowings and influences work..." Nicholas Horsfall, Vergilius
"The same piercing intelligence, command of Greek and Latin literature, and refusal to be satisfied with tired old formulations that are apparent in his earlier books and his numerous articles make this commentary a most valuable contribution, and I look forward eagerly to further discussions by Hardie of the issues raised by Aeneid 9. As much as anyone working on Latin poetry today Hardie is unpredictable, with a rare tendency simply to go in the direction the evidence before him indicates on any issue. When you see his name in a table of contents or card catalogue, take and read." Bryn Mawr Classical Review
"Hardie successfully incorporates the most valuable ancient and contemporary materials on Vergil to produce a more literary approach reflecting the insights and biases of critical work of recent decades. This edition will br appreciated by students and scholars alike." Classical World
