Aeneid / Энеида
Вергилий
|
This classic poem embodies the glory and aspirations of Rome, encompassing both the nobility and the suffering of human life. It takes up the tale of Aeneas where it was left by Homer, leading the dispossessed survivors of Troy through trials and adventures to establish a new kingdom in Italy. This is the first major single-volume edition in English of Book IX of Virgil's Aeneid, a pivotal part of the poem that contains the nocturnal interlude of the ill-fated expedition of the young Trojans Nisus and Euryalus. The volume includes a detailed linguistic and thematic commentary on the text, and an introduction consisting of a series of interpretative essays on the book. It offers invaluable help to students of Virgil and will also be of interest to professional scholars of Latin literature.
