Book Synopsis Aeneid Book 1 by : P Vergilius Maro
Download or read book Aeneid Book 1 written by P Vergilius Maro. This book was released on 2020-12-20. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These books are intended to make Virgil's Latin accessible even to those with a fairly rudimentary knowledge of the language. There is a departure here from the format of the electronic books, with short sections generally being presented on single, or double, pages and endnotes entirely avoided. A limited number of additional footnotes is included, but only what is felt necessary for a basic understanding of the story and the grammar. Some more detailed footnotes have been taken from Conington's edition of the Aeneid.

Book Synopsis A Reading of Virgil's Aeneid Book 2 by : Paul Murgatroyd
Download or read book A Reading of Virgil's Aeneid Book 2 written by Paul Murgatroyd. This book was released on 2021-06-08. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is aimed primarily at English-speaking Classical Civilization students taking courses in Virgil, epic and myth at schools, colleges and universities, but will also be of interest to students reading Virgil Aeneid 2 in Latin and to the general reader. The book provides something new for those studying Virgil in translation, offering a detailed and in-depth literary analysis of a single book of the Aeneid, one of the most famous and appealing parts of the whole poem. The book provides a brief introduction to Virgil and the Aeneid in general, and Book 2 in particular. It also offers literary analysis, in order to enhance critical appreciation and plain enjoyment, making the book really come alive. At the end of each chapter exercises, topics for investigation, and references to other scholars and Classical authors are included to extend the engagement with Virgil. At the end of the book, Appendix A contains translations of other versions of the fall of Troy, and Appendix B summarizes the rest of Aeneas’ narrative in Book 3 of the Aeneid (with translation of, and comment, on key passages).

Book Synopsis Virgil, A Poet in Augustan Rome by : James Morwood
Download or read book Virgil, A Poet in Augustan Rome written by James Morwood. This book was released on 2008. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A series of texts in Classical Civilisation, encompassing literary, historical and philosophical subjects. Virgil is to Latin literature what Homer is to Greek and Shakespeare to English. He is both the supreme poet of Rome's greatness and its most profound exponent of the suffering involved in human experience. This book enables students to explore the issues at the heart of his work. It is built around substantial excerpts from his three great poems: the Eclogues, his highly original pastoral collection; the Georgics, his work about farming described by Dryden as 'the best Poem of the best poet'; and the Aeneid, the supreme Roman epic." http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0834/2008273760-d.html.
