Beschreibung

VIII, 150 Seiten / p. minimal bestoßen, ansonsten tadelloser Zustand / minimally bumped, otherwise perfect condition - Preface -- Aeneid 4 tells the story of Dido s love for Aeneas, and her death at her own hands after Aeneas heeds Jupiter s command that he leave her and continue on to play his destined role in Italy. This volume is an introductory commentary on Aeneid 4 for use at the intermediate level or higher. It provides a generous amount of basic information about grammar and syntax, as well as a complete vocabulary at the back of the book, so that students of varying experience will have what they need to understand Vergil s Latin. At the same time, it addresses issues of interpretation and style so that students of all levels will have a richer experience of the poem. Finally it includes extensive bibliographical references that will help readers pursue areas of special interest. -- Like the other volumes in this series, the commentary takes as its starting point the notes in the valuable school edition of T.E. Page s Vergil: Aeneid 1-6 (1894); briefer and differently focused versions of the new commentaries will also appear together in volumes on Aeneid 1-6 and 7-12 aimed at more advanced students. When still useful for today s student, Page s comments have been retained, but on nearly every line consideration has been given to the differing needs of today s student, and to the opinions of a century of scholarship that post-dates Page, both on Vergil s Latin and on literary and interpretive questions. The general introduction is by Randall Ganiban, general editor of the commentaries on Aeneid 1-6, and my appendices on meter and on stylistic terms are adapted from those in his 2008 Aeneid 2 commentary, and in fact this Preface draws upon his as a model and even repeats some of his sentences. The vocabulary for Aeneid 4 is adapted from that of the MacMillan/St. Martin s Press school edition by Rev. H. M. Stephenson, originally published in 1888.
