Description
The Aeneid, a foundational poem of Roman literature, tells the story of migration and transformation. Book 3 is a pivotal moment in this narrative, as Aeneas recounts his people's journey from Troy to Italy.
This edition features an introduction, Latin text, and detailed commentary, along with an extensive Appendix that explores Vergil's sources and models. The introduction sets the book within its historical and literary contexts, while the commentary aims to reveal the poet's artistry and learning.
With translations of cited Latin and Greek passages, as well as references to Roman history, this edition provides a clear understanding of both the original text and Vergil's vision of Rome, history, and humanity.
