Items related to Virgil: A Life
Virgil, the most famous of Roman poets, has fired the imagination of generations of writers, poets and readers. He has been the classic poet for two thousand years. In this biography, Peter Levi uses Virgil's poetry - the Eclogues, Georgics and the Aeneid - as well as historical and archaeological evidence to discard many of the myths surrounding Virgil's life and reveal the life of a poet whose powerful imagination helped shape the epic vision of modern man.

Review:
'the lightness of touch Levi adds to his scholarship makes for a genial read' --Financial Times
Book Description:
Peter Levi teases a remarkably vivid life from Virgil's poems, a life-long study of poetry and the few facts that have come down to us through Suetonius.
