Zustand: Sehr gut. XIV; 297 p. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Very good and clean. - Sehr gut und sauber. - Modern studies of Virgils Georgies have begun with the assumption that the poem is an exposition or, more recently, an idealization of rustic life and that the contrasting perspectives in it must all be shown to contribute to a single vision of that life if the poem is to be viewed as a coherent unity. The present study begins with the quite different assumption that we must accept inconsistencies in the Georgies as real, because the poem is a series of meditations upon quite different visions of rustic life and their implications for understanding the human condition and the nature of civilization. Mr. Miles discusses the poem as an assessment of conflicting efforts by contemporary Romans to find an answer or an alternative to the disruptions of the Late Republic in idealizations of country life and of Romes agrarian past. The first chapter surveys the development of Romans myths about their rustic origins in the context of changing social and intellectual currents, and emphasizes the disagreements and uncertainty about the proper relationship of city and country existing in Virgils own day. Subsequent chapters deal with each of the four books of the Georgies, seeking to follow Virgils assessment of the different points of view elaborated and examined in each of the poems major sections. A particular feature of this analysis is its emphasis upon motifs that are repeated throughout the poem and that cut across different sections with their separate points of view. These motifs are seen as performing two important functions: they provide a common background against which the distinctiveness of the different perspectives in the poem stands out clearly; and they call attention to certain elemental realities as the basis for an understanding of the human condition that cannot be identified with any single version or combination of versions of rustic life elaborated in the poem. Mr. Miless reading leads to a reconsideration of the relationship of the Aristaeus epyl- lion to the rest of the poem. He sees the myth of Aristaeus and Orpheus neither as a mere pendant to the main body of the poem nor as a restatement in mythic terms of reality or ideal expressed wholly by the poems successive accounts of the farmer and his world. Rather, he discusses it as a response to limitations that the poems meditations have revealed in the georgic mode itself. Myth provides Virgil an opportunity to bring together themes that previously had been presented separately and indirectly and to develop them directly in terms of individual experience. The complex point of view that this interpretation attributes to the Georgies may also provide a helpful perspective from which to mediate between extreme characterizations of Virgil as either a pro- or an anti-Augustan.
