Overview

This volume contains the complete works of Publius Vergilius Maro, more commonly known as Virgil, one of ancient Rome's greatest poets. Presented in its original Latin, this edition includes ""Bucolica"" (Eclogues), ""Georgica"" (Georgics), and ""Æneis"" (Aeneid). Bucolica, Virgil's first major work, consists of ten eclogues written in the style of Theocritus. Georgica is a poem on agriculture, offering advice on farming, trees, cattle, and beekeeping. The epic Æneis recounts the legendary story of Aeneas, a Trojan who traveled to Italy and became the ancestor of the Romans. Virgil's works are celebrated for their beautiful language, profound insights into the human condition, and enduring influence on Western literature.
