Book excerpt: Virgil--Publius Vergilius Maro--was born at Andes near Mantua, in the year 70 B.C. His life was uneventful, though he lived in stirring times, and he passed by far the greater part of it in reading his books and writing his poems, undisturbed by the fierce civil strife which continued to rage throughout the Roman Empire, until Octavian, who afterwards became the Emperor Augustus, defeated Antony at the battle of Actium. Though his father was a man of humble origin, Virgil received an excellent education, first at Cremona and Milan, and afterwards at Rome. He was intimate with all the distinguished men of his time, and a personal friend of the Emperor. After the publication of his second work, the Georgics, he was recognized as being the greatest poet of his age, and the most striking figure in the brilliant circle of literary men, which was centred at the Court. He died at Brindisi in the spring of 19 B.C. whilst returning from a journey to Greece, leaving his greatest work, the Aeneid, written but unrevised. It was published by his executors, and immediately took its place as the great national Epic of the Roman people. Virgil seems to have been a man of simple, pure, and loveable character, and the references to him in the works of Horace clearly show the affection with which he was regarded by his friends.

Book The Aeneid of Virgil

Download or read book The Aeneid of Virgil written by Virgil and published by . This book was released on 2007-05-01 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Aeneid" of Virgil ranks as one of the world's most important and impressive literary epics. Although it is often mentioned in the same vein as Homer's "Iliad," it is more closely akin to Milton's "Paradise Lost" in its level of cultural sophistication. Taylor's verse translation is widely considered to be an excellent representation of the Latin verse. Virgil was recognized during his lifetime as being the greatest poet of his age, and the most striking figure in the brilliant circle of literary men centered about the court of the Emperor Augustus. He seems to have been a man of simple, pure, and loveable character, and the references to him in the works of Horace clearly show the affection with which he was regarded by his friends. Although Virgil turned to the Greek epics for the general framework and many of the details of his epic poem, The Aeneid, he always remained master of his materials, and stamped them with the impress of his own genius. The spirit which inspired the Aeneid was wholly Roman, and the deep faith in the National Destiny, and stern sense of duty to which it gave expression, its profoundly religious character and stately and melodious verse, have always caused it to be recognized as the loftiest expression of the dignity and greatness of Rome at her best. But, the sympathetic reader will be conscious of a deeper and more abiding charm in the poetry of Virgil. Even in his most splendid passages his verses have the quality to thrill us with a strange pathos with his sensitiveness to unseen things - things beautiful and sad - giving utterance as the voice of Nature herself, to that pain and weariness, yet hope of better things, which is the experience of her children in every age.
