He was born in 70 BC and raised in a rural area near Mantua, Italy; he was well educated; his family farm was seized as a political spoil. From his thirty-first year on, Virgil lived either in Rome or near Naples, associated with his patron, Maecenas, Octavian's minister of internal affairs. Virgil was a court poet, whose well-being depended on pleasing powerful members of the ruling class. He evidently did this quite well, since Maecenas and other wealthy patrons supported him financially, allowing him to spend his life writing poetry. top VIRGIL'S LATIN A brief example of Virgil's Latin from the opening sentence of the Aeneid shows how the words are arranged more like a mosaic than in the linear fashion we are used to nowadays: Arma virumque cano, Troiae qui primus ab oris

Extractions: Porphyry EARLY HELLENIST PHILOSOPHERS Diogenes, who was a contemporary of Plato and Aristotle, laid out an important part of the Hellenistic world-view with his Cynicism. Please note: the Cynicism of the originator of this philosophy, Diogenes, had little in common with what we today understand as cynicism. Even before Philip and Alexander had arrived on the Greek scenethe constant warring among the Greeks, the hunger of Athens for power and dominion over its neighbors, the general sense that things were not right politically in Greecehad caused Diogenes to begin to look to inner or personal integrity as a substitute for lost public integrity (which had once been the focus of the moral life in Greece).

Extractions: The Appendix Vergiliana, a collection of minor poems, was attributed in antiquity to Virgil. The collection includes short epics (Ciris, Culex), elegies (Lydia, Copa), a didactic poem on volcanism (Aetna), and a group of short poems called the Catalepton, or Poems in a Trifling Vein. The poems are written in the erudite, or learned, innovative style that is characteristic of the poets of the Hellenistic Age (4th century to 1st century BC), many revealing the influence of Roman poet Catullus and his school of poets. The authenticity of the collection, however, is disputed by modern scholars. Some of the poems, especially a few of the Catalepton that deal with the life of Virgil, may be youthful works of his. The Aetna is generally dated in the 1st century AD. The Georgics, or Art of Husbandry, a poem in four books on the life of the farmer, was written from 36 to 29 BC. It drew inspiration from the Works and Days of Greek poet Hesiod. The poem exhibits the highest artistic perfection to be found in Latin poetry, and its publication confirmed Virgil's position as the foremost poet of the age. Although ostensibly a treatise on agriculture, the Georgics is in fact a celebration of country life and of Italy. The poem was designed to be universal in scope, as evidenced by the topics of war, peace, death, and resurrection, which respectively conclude each of the four books.

Extractions: News About the Library Resources Collections Subject guides Help and training UoR Home Library Home Collections Special Collections ... Rome Virgil Virgil was one of the greatest Roman poets. Flourishing at a time when the Romans were striving to produce a literature that would match the Greek, Virgil sought to imitate the ancient Greek genres. This is best exemplified in the Georgics and the Aeneid where he took for his models the didactic poems of Hesiod and the epics of Homer respectively. In 17th and 18th century England the Aeneid was widely regarded as the greatest of the classical epic poems. It was thought that Virgil's grasp of human knowledge had created a work of exceptional depth, celebrating the Roman Empire and its values as well as the merits of royalism and one-man rule. Believing that Aeneas embodied the rule of the Emperor Augustus, parallels were drawn between Augustus and British Monarchy. This led to a great interest not only in the Aeneid , but also Virgil's other works and the production of many new editions and translations.

Living / Arts July 7, 2005 CAMBRIDGE In the book-lined precincts of David and Anne Ferry's antique Greek revival home, you can easily picture Ralph Waldo Emerson, standing in the foyer with hat in hand. In 1842, he paid a call on the feminist critic Margaret Fuller, who owned the house at the time. But move to the rear veranda where poet and translator David Ferry settled into a chair for an interview, and the din of passing trucks and car horns yanks you back to the present. Ferry's own life and work lately have been like that: the raw present and the deep past. He's a plain-spoken American, who looks like a professor as played by Henry Fonda. Yet his fame has spread lately for English translations of poets dead for thousands of years. Somehow, he has found ways to make those ancient voices fresh. Ferry, who is 81, has published five books of poems (primarily his own, with some translations) between 1960 and 1999. In 1992, he published a ''verse rendering" he says it's not a translation of the 3,000-year-old Sumerian epic ''Gilgamesh." Then he turned to the classic Roman poets Horace and Virgil, with ''The Odes of Horace" and ''The Epistles of Horace," ''The Eclogues of Virgil" and, just published, ''The Georgics of Virgil."

In 44 B.C. Octavian, great nephew and adopted son of the murdered dictator, rallied Caesar's veterans and used them first against Marc Antony, the chief leader of the Caesarians, and then in alliance with Antony and Lepidus (the Second Triumvirate), against the republicans. Proscriptions caused the death of some 300 senators and 2000 nobles. Opponents of the triumvirate were defeated, and much property was made available with which to reward the troops.
