Book Synopsis Vergil and Classical Hexameter Poetry by : George E. Duckworth
Download or read book Vergil and Classical Hexameter Poetry written by George E. Duckworth and published by . This book was released on 1969 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study of Latin hexameter poetry results in part from my efforts in recent years to arouse greater interest among my students in the perfection of Vergilian meter, in part from a growing conviction that new and valuable criteria might be developed to define more clearly the metrical procedures not only of Vergil but of other hexameter poets as well. My investigations into the frequencies of the metrical schemata (or "patterns," the term I prefer) and the manner in which they are used took at first the form of charts and percentage tables, and these I have translated, I hope, in such a way that my findings will be meaningful and of value to teachers and students of Latin poetry on all academic levels. -- Preface.

Download or read book Darkness Visible written by W.R. Johnson and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015-01-20 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the best books ever written on one of humanity’s greatest epics, W. R. Johnson’s classic study of Vergil’s Aeneid challenges centuries of received wisdom. Johnson rejects the political and historical reading of the epic as a record of the glorious prehistory of Rome and instead foregrounds Vergil’s enigmatic style and questioning of the heroic myths. With an approach to the text that is both grounded in scholarship and intensely personal, and in a style both rhetorically elegant and passionate, Johnson offers readings of specific passages that are nuanced and suggestive as he focuses on the “somber and nourishing fictions” in Vergil’s poem. A timeless work of scholarship, Darkness Visible will enthrall classicists as well as students and scholars of the history of criticism—specifically the way in which politics influence modern readings of the classics—and of poetry and literature.
Book Synopsis Vergil ́s Political Commentary by : Leendert Weeda
Download or read book Vergil ́s Political Commentary written by Leendert Weeda and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the book titled Vergil's political commentary in Eclogues, Georgics and Aeneid, the author examines Vergil’s political views by analyzing the whole of the poet’s work. He introduces the notion of the functional model suggesting that the poet often used this instrument when making a political statement. New interpretations of a number of the Eclogues and passages of the Georgics and the Aeneid are suggested and the author concludes that Vergil’s political engagement is visible in much of his work. During his whole career the poet was consistent in his views on several major political themes. These varied from, the distress caused by the violation of the countryside during and after the expropriations in the 40s B.C., to the horrors of the civil war and the violence of war in general, and the necessity of strong leadership. Vergil hoped and expected that Octavian would establish peace and order, and he supported a form of hereditary kingship for which he considered Octavian a suitable candidate. He held Cleopatra in high regard, and he appreciated a more meaningful role for women in society. Vergil wrote poetry that supported Augustus, but he had also the courage to criticize Octavian and his policies. He was a commentator with an independent mind and was not a member of Augustus’ putative propaganda machine.
