Overview

This edition presents Virgil's complete works in Latin, encompassing the ""Bucolica,"" ""Georgica,"" and the epic ""Aeneis."" Virgil, one of the most important poets in Latin literature, profoundly influenced Western art and literature. The ""Bucolica"" (or Eclogues) offer pastoral scenes and reflections on rural life.
