Description
With this three-volume companion, students can access the literary and historical significance of theAeneidin English through an accessible yet authoritative introduction and line-by-line commentary. Written by a teacher who has taught the Aeneidin both English and Latin for more than twenty years, this guide unpicks Virgil's literary techniques, structures and historical resonances.
The line-by-line commentary in Volume 3focuses on two widely read translations of the AeneidBooks 7-12 (in verse by Robert Fagles and in prose by David West).

Plus, this companion includes extensive explanatory notes, context and a wide range of scholarly critique to ensure you have everything you need in one place, as well as pointers for further research.
For a broad introduction to the many facets of the poem and to its author, Volume 1is available separately.
