The Poetry of Pathos: Studies in Virgilian Epic
Conte, Gian Biagio (Professor of Latin Literature, Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa)
A collection of essays on Virgil's Aeneid by a celebrated scholar and interpreter of Latin poetry. Gian Biaggio Conte focuses on the way in which Virgil reworks earlier poetry (especially that of Homer) to create a new and effective mode of epic in a period when the genre appeared to be debased or exhausted.
