A collection of six critical essays on Virgil's epic poem, arranged in chronological order of original publication.
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
These contemporary studies of Virgil's Aeneid (all previously published) are intended as "a representative selection of the most useful criticism available." Indeed they are, if "useful" means offering meaningful insights. Viktor Poschl discusses "Aeneas"; Thomas Greene, "Virgil's Style"; Adam Parry, "The Two Voices of Virgil's Aeneid "; W. R. Johnson, "Depths and Surfaces"; Barbara J. Bono, "The Dido Episode"; and K. W. Gransden, "War and Peace." Since specialists will be familiar with the work of these scholars, this handy collection will be of most value to serious students who, upon coming to grips with Virgil's masterpiece, desire a propitious entry into the interpretative maze surrounding it. Robert J. Lenardon, Professor Emeritus of Classics, Ohio State Univ., Columbus
