1748 VIRGIL CLASSIC ROMAN POETRY in GERMAN antique

Item Details

Description

BUCOLICA GEORGICA et Aeneidos
P. Virgilii Maronis
Text in German
Published in Nurenberg, 1748
Size 4 by 6 1/4"
Good condition, some wear, foxing, toning. Front endpaper is missing.

Publius Vergilius Maro (70 BC â€“ 19 BC[1]), usually called Virgil or Vergil in English, was an ancient Roman poet of the Augustan period. He wrote three of the most famous poems in Latin literature: the Eclogues (or Bucolics), the Georgics, and the epic Aeneid. A number of minor poems, collected in the Appendix Vergiliana, are sometimes attributed to him.
Virgil is traditionally ranked as one of Rome's greatest poets. His Aeneid has been considered the national epic of ancient Rome since the time of its composition. Modeled after Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, the Aeneid follows the Trojan refugee Aeneas as he struggles to fulfill his destiny and reach Italy, where his descendants Romulus and Remus were to found the city of Rome. Virgil's work has had wide and deep influence on Western literature, most notably Dante's Divine Comedy, in which Virgil appears as Dante's guide through Hell and Purgatory.
