Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, an influential study of the Eclogues of Virgil, surveys the known textual history and textual criticism to reveal the poems as they were originally written, before centuries of careless transcription and emendation. Conjectural emendations are kept to a minimum as the author focuses on the importance of philological method. The book presents a convincing argument that Virgil's focus was above all didactic, with the intent of improving the moral character of his readers and the broader Roman populace. The author believes this intent has often been missed or downplayed in previous scholarship. The thematic content of the poems, such as the motifs of pastoral simplicity, political propaganda, and esoteric wisdom, is reexamined within the framework of the author's core argument: that Virgil's primary purpose was to offer moral instruction. This book is a significant contribution to Virgilian scholarship and will be of interest to Classicists and literary scholars alike. 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. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781333802905_0
