Buchbeschreibung Zustand: Gut. 522 p., with plates. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Dustjacket and bottom edge slightly stained, otherwise very good. / Schutzumschlag und Fußschnitt leicht beschmutzt, sonst sehr gut. - This collection of essays honors Alexander Gordon McKay, one of the most respected names in Vergilian studies. Written by some of the world s leading scholars, the essays offer new perspectives on the larger Vergilian world which Dr. McKay s scholarship has so richly illuminated. The Two Worlds of the Poet focuses primarily on Vergil and Augustan literature and art, with several essays that expand the Vergilian theme and reflect the wide research interests of Professor McKay in such areas of classical studies as literature, art, architecture, painting, and sculpture. Vergil s world presents two faces, each inseparable from the other the world which formed the poet and the world which the poet himself created and it is proper that a volume which commemorates a scholar whose own work has elucidated both of these worlds should address itself to each. Several essays examine the poet s modus creandi his use of the simile; his assimilation of the language and motifs of Roman comic drama; his exploitation of the rich store of Greek, Etruscan, and Roman mythological, legendary, and historical material; and his treatment of a variety of themes which touch upon the very essence of the human condition. Other essays touch upon various aspects of Vergil s material and cultural environment, enabling readers to place his created work in a broader perspective. Contributors offer new perspectives on the poet-classical treatment of Vergilian themes, illustrating how the reception of Vergil varied with successive generations. The volume concludes with the reflections of the senior statesman of Vergilian criticism upon the scholar s art and mission. - Robert McKay Wilhelm is a professor of Classics at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio.
