0 comments
This study focuses on the character, literary precursors and effects of the language in Virgil's Eclogues. It is divided into four major sections: word formation, linguistic models, style level, personal names. Each section examines the influence of earlier poets (Theocritus, Callimachus, Ennius, Lucretius, Catullus et al.), the reception by later poets of the Augustan Age (Propertius, Tibullus, Ovid) and in particular the relationship of the Eclogues to Vergil's later work (Georgica, Aeneis).
