Reflections and New Perspectives on Virgil’s Georgics
Virgil’s Georgics, the most neglected of the poet’s three major works, is brought to life and infused with fresh meanings in this dynamic collection of new readings. The Georgics is shown to be a rich field of inherited and varied literary forms, actively inviting a wide range of interpretations as well as deep reflection on its place within the tradition of didactic poetry

The Design of Virgil’s Bucolics
In 1986, reviewing recent work on the Bucolics, William S. Anderson wrote, ‘Van Sickle, Design, has produced the most persuasive portrait of the Eclogues, arguing cogently for what he calls an “ideological order”.’ The Design of Virgil’s Bucolics argues that Virgil composed his ten eclogues as parts of a system: the Book of Bucolics conceived as a concerted whole. The report of frequent theatre presentations showed that Virgil caught attention wi…

Philodemus and Poetry
Building on recent advances in the reconstruction of the charred Papyri of Philodemus excavated from the Villa of the Papyri at Herculaneum, this volume presents eleven new chapters in the history of literary criticism in antiquity. Philodemus of Gadara (c.110-40 BC) shares with his Roman contemporaries Lucretius and Horace the fact that all excelled in the production of poetry, while all three were (at some stage in their careers) adherents of E…
A Reading of Virgil's Messianic Eclogue
Anthropology and Roman Culture
How did Roman family relationships differ from our own? What metaphors did the Romans use to express abstractions such as time? What can we learn from the cultural symbols of their religion and literature? In 'Anthropology and Roman Culture,' Maurizio Bettini employs the methods of structural anthropology to examine a series of social, ethical, and religious issues characteristic of Roman culture in the classical period. Bettini begins by examini…

Theocritus and the Development of the Conception of Bucolic Genre
From our viewpoint, the bucolic genre begins with Theocritus, though ancient critics considered him not the founder but the best in a class. The difference between their perception and ours will serve to remind us that no idea of genre can be taken for granted. Generic conceptions, like any other products of literary work, have history. Implied in the work of poets, they are the practical marks of similarity and thus also touchstones of significa…
