Brill, 1993. — xii, 174 p. — (Mnemosyne, Supplements 122). For more than a century, critics of the Aeneid have assumed that all or most of its episodes must propound something about Aeneas and his mission to found the Roman people, and through them about Rome and Augustus; whether that is their positive aspects, or their brutality and destructiveness, or the contrast between...
Brill, 2015. — x, 762 p. — (Mnemosyne, Supplements 386). Virgil’s Aeneid 5 has long been among the more neglected sections of the poet’s epic of Augustan Rome. Book 5 opens the second movement of the poem, the middle section of the Aeneid that sees the Trojans poised between the old world of Phrygia and the new destiny in Italy. The present volume fills a significant gap in...

Brill, 2022. — 994 p. — (Mnemosyne, Supplements 462). The fourth book of Virgil’s Aeneid is the shortest of his epic, and yet it has had an inestimable influence.

The book has intratextual...

New York: Cambridge University Press, 2007. – 255 p. At the end of the Thebaid, Statius enjoins his epic 'not to compete with the divine Aeneid but rather to follow at a distance and always revere its footprints'. The nature of the Thebaid's interaction with the Aeneid is, however, a matter of debate. This book argues that the Thebaid reworks themes, scenes, and ideas from Virgil...
Cambridge University Press, 2018. — xiv + 334 p. — (Cambridge Classical Studies). Founded upon more than a century of civil bloodshed, the first imperial regime of ancient Rome, the Principate of Caesar Augustus, looked at Rome's distant and glorious past in order to justify and promote its existence under the disguise of a restoration of the old Republic.

The editor and three outside contributors offer a guide both to the key problems and to the most intelligent...
Oxford University Press, 2020. — 537 p. Nicholas Horsfall was one of the most recognizable and influential Latinists of his generation.

Brill, 2000. — xliv, 572 p. — (Mnemosyne Supplements 198).

Oxford University Press, 2015. — 272 p. The Protean Virgil argues that when we try to understand how and why different readers have responded differently to the same text over time, we should take into account the physical form in which they read the text as well as the text itself. Using Virgil's poetry as a case study in book history, the volume shows that a succession of...

Brill, 1982. — xi, 273 p. — (Mnemosyne, Supplements 73). Vergilian scholars have only intermittently focused their attention on the repeated lines in the Aeneid.

Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht, 2004. Die Dirae der Appendix Vergiliana wurden bisher fast nur in Hinblick auf Textgestalt oder Verfasser untersucht.

Cambridge University Press, 2023. — 300 p. This book explores how Virgil in his Aeneid incorporates the ancient Stoics' thinking about how humans can exercise moral responsibility and how this can affect providential world fate.
