Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book explores the textual history of the works of the great Roman poet Virgil and provides a critical apparatus for his poems, the Eclogues, Georgics, Aeneid, and minor works such as the Culex. Conjectural emendations are proposed for corrupt passages, many of which have long vexed scholars, based on a comprehensive examination of the manuscript tradition and the ancient commentators. The author argues that many readings found in early manuscripts and adopted by editors, such as Heyne and Ribbeck, are inferior to those found in later manuscripts. The author aims to establish a critical text of Virgil which is as close as possible to that which the poet originally wrote. The book will be of interest to scholars of Latin literature, especially those working on Virgil, textual criticism, and the history of scholarship. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
