Book Description

0198150350 978-0198150350 September 14, 1995
Surprisingly, this is the first full-scale scholarly commentary on the Eclogues to appear in this century. These ten short pastorals are among the best known poems in Latin literature. Clausen's commentary provides a comprehensive guide to both the poems and the considerable scholarship surrounding them. There are short introductions to each poem, as well as a general introduction to the Eclogues as a whole.

Editorial Reviews

Review


"Clausen covers a range of topics....The reader will discover a treasure of fascinating and informative observations. Best of all, this long awaited book gives students and scholars alike the opportunity to encounter Vergil's Eclogues through the eyes of one of the finest American Latinists of this century. Regarding Vergil's Arcadia Clausen states: `Rarely, if ever, can a poetic act be explained satisfactorily...' In reading this commentary, I have been satisfied."--Bryn Mawr Classical Review
