Extractions: V irgil (Publius Vergilius Maro, 70-19 B.C.) remains one of the most influential Roman authors throughout history and his texts have exhibited profound effects upon writers throughout the years. He was recognized even by his own contemporaries as an exemplary poet and a model for others. He employed a vast knowledge of ancient legends and associations throughout his texts resulting in his reputation as a "learned" poet. Unlike other poets of his time, Virgil's freshness and wit never diminishes over his career and he retains a delicate subtlety of expressions throughout his works. H is qualities of tenderness, humanity and deep religious sentiment caused him to be regarded as the herald of Christianity throughout the middle ages. This ensured a wide transmission of his works and caused Dante to choose him as the guide in his master work The Divine Comedy . Later, in the modern era, his works became required reading in scholastic curricula and his texts became vehicles for education in Latin grammar. D uring the last ten years of his life, Virgil worked on

Extractions: The great Roman poet Virgil (also spelled Vergil) was born on Oct. 15, 70 BC, in Andes, a village near Mantua in northern Italy. Virgil spent his childhood on his father's farm and was educated at Cremona, Milan, and then Rome, where he studied rhetoric. There he met poets and statesmen who were to play an important part in his life. When civil war broke out in 49 BC, he retired to Naples where he studied philosophy with the Epicurean Siro. Beginning in 45 BC, encouraged by the statesman Pollio, Virgil spent eight or ten years composing the Eclogues , which were greatly admired in literary circles. They were adapted to the stage as mimes, and thus made him a popular, if elusive, figure. After the publication of the Eclogues , Virgil joined the literary circle of Gaius Maecenas, which would later include the poets Horace and Propertius. Over a period of seven years he wrote the

Raised on a farm in northern Italy, he made his way to Rome as an adult and gained fame for his collections of poems Eclogues (around 39 B.C.) and Georgics (29 B.C.). A clear picture of his life is not possible, but Virgil was apparently famous during his lifetime and had friends in high places, notably the emperor Augustus . The Aeneid is Virgil's masterpiece, a national epic that tells the story of the heroic Aeneas and the founding of Rome. The long poem is often compared to Homer 's the Iliad and the Odyssey , Greek epics combining history and mythology. Virgil died before finishing the work, but it was published (tradition has it that he wanted it destroyed after his death) and became a revered text for centuries. In medieval Europe Virgil became an almost mystical personage, with magic powers attributed to him and his work (he is used as the guide to Hell in

Extractions: Download this book In Aeneas, Virgil created the most powerful figure in Latin literature, the dutiful yet fallible Trojan prince who overcomes war, suffering and countless setbacks to lay the foundations of the Roman race. Like many of his generation, John Dryden (1631-1700) believed the great classical epics could provide moral models to 'form the Mind to Heroick Virtue by Example'. For his version of the Aeneid, he formed a style vigorous yet refined and drew on the deep understanding of political unrest he had acquired during the Civil Wars of 1642-51 and the Glorious Revolution of 1688.

Extractions: The greatest of the Roman poets, Publius Vergilius Maro, was not a Roman by birth. His early home was on a farm in the village of Andes, near Mantua. His father was a farmer, prosperous enough to give his son the best education. The young Virgil was sent to school at Cremona and then to Milan. At the age of 17 he went to Rome to study. There he learned rhetoric and philosophy from the best teachers of the day. After the civil war between Julius Caesar and Pompey, the family farm was seized. The loss, however, proved to be a blessing in disguise, for it brought Virgil powerful friends. They introduced Virgil to the friends of Octavian, who was soon to become the emperor Augustus. Through his generosity Virgil was freed from financial worries and was able to devote himself entirely to literature. Thus his influence continued through the Middle Ages and into modern times. Superstitious people of medieval times looked upon his tomb at Naples with religious veneration.

Place of Birth: Andes Place of Death: Brundisium Nationality: Roman Gender: Male Occupations: poet Virgil Main Biography Virgil (70-19 BC), or Publius Vergilius Maro, was the greatest Roman poet. The Romans regarded his "Aeneid," published two years after his death, as their national epic. Virgil's life spans the bloody upheavals of the last decades of the violent Roman civil war (133-31 B.C.) and the first years of the era of order, stability, and peace created by Augustus (the grandnephew and adopted son of Julius Caesar, he succeeded him in power at Rome). Virgil's contemporary poets were the lyricist and satirist Horace and the writers of elegy Tibullus, Propertius, and Ovid. Together they are known as poets of the Golden Age of Latin literature, or more simply, as Augustans. Augustus, the first emperor of Rome, realized the propaganda value of literature, and so he cultivated writers, encouraged them to eulogize his new regime, and subsidized them if necessary. Of all the Augustans, Virgil was the most laudatory of the Emperor's achievements. It is impossible to understand the

His epic poem, the Aeneid , has been of continuing importance to Western literature. Although it was commissioned by the emperor Augustus, the poem is more than early imperial propaganda. It proclaims the divine mission of Aeneas to found Rome and the divine injunction of the Romans to unite the world under a noble emperor such as Augustus. Products of the chaos of the Roman civil war years, Virgil's works show a longing for a more peaceful ordering of society. His two major works, the Eclogues and the Aeneid , emphasize different aspects of this longing. The Eclogues , written first, is a collection of escapist poems that dwell on the ideal nature of a peaceful, rural life.

Extractions: The Aeneid was written by a Rome's greatest poet named Virgil or Vergil (full name was Publius Vergilius Maro) and lived in 70-19 BC. Though, Virgil wrote a couple of other works, it was the Aeneid that brought him fame after his death, during the reign of the Emperor Augustus (reign 27 BC - AD 14). To read about the background of the Aeneid, see Virgil and the Political Background Legend of Aeneas Aeneas , the Trojan hero who survived the war at Troy, was a subject of several legends. The official legend of Aeneas was that found in a Latin epic, The Aeneid, written by a Roman poet, Virgil or Vergil. According to this epic, Aeneas settled in Italy, not far from the present site of Rome. Ovid followed more or less Virgil's epic about Aeneas after the Trojan War. Ovid only give a brief sketch of Aeneas voyage to Italy and the war against the Latins; all this take place in Book 14 of the Metamorphoses I will cover this legend, shortly, but in this introduction I would like us to look at the various legend of his survival.

Edinburgh: Andrew Symson and Robert Freebairn, 1710. Gawin Douglas (1474? - 1522), Bishop of Dunkeld and Scots poet noted for The Palice of Honour and King Hart, had the first edition of his translation of the Aeneid printed posthumously in 1553 (see the first edition, also on display). The 1710 edition, with its corrections and scholarly apparatus, was the foundation for the earliest work in Scottish philology. Douglas was a noted poet of the Chaucerian school; although he terms the language of the translation "Scottish," it does not in practice greatly differ from Middle English.
