The First Book Of Virgil's Aeneid: With A Literal Interlinear Translation On The Plan Recommended By Mr. Locke (1829)

By Virgil

Book Overview

The First Book of Virgil's Aeneid is a literary work published in 1829 that presents the first book of Virgil's epic poem, Aeneid, along with a literal interlinear translation following the plan recommended by Mr. Locke. The Aeneid tells the story of Aeneas, a Trojan hero who escapes the fall of Troy and travels to Italy to found a new city, ultimately becoming the ancestor of the Roman people. The first book introduces the main characters and sets the stage for the rest of the epic. The interlinear translation provides a word-for-word rendering of the Latin text, allowing readers to understand the meaning of each word and phrase. The plan recommended by Mr. Locke involves placing the English translation directly beneath the corresponding Latin text, providing a clear and easy-to-follow guide for those learning Latin or studying the Aeneid. Overall, The First Book of Virgil's Aeneid is a valuable resource for students and scholars of Latin and classical literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
