Book Overview

""A Study Of P. Papinius Statius Thebais And His Imitation Of Vergil�������s Aeneid"" is a book written by Ernest Darwin Daniells and published in 1906. The book is a detailed analysis of the epic poem ""Thebais"" by P. Papinius Statius, which is considered one of the most significant works of Latin literature.

The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of the two poems.
