Apollonii Rhodii Argonauticorum Libri Quatuor [Greek, Ancient (To 1453)]

By David Ruhnkenius

This is a scholarly edition of Apollonius Rhodius's epic poem, "Argonautica," recounting the voyage of Jason and the Argonauts in search of the Golden Fleece. Written in ancient Greek, this edition includes the original text in four books. The poem, a cornerstone of classical literature, blends adventure, mythology, and romance, offering insights into the heroic age as imagined by Hellenistic Greeks.

Edited by David Ruhnkenius and John Shaw, this edition would have been meticulously prepared for students of classical literature and those with an interest in the historical study of ancient Greek texts. The "Argonautica" remains a significant work for its poetic beauty and its influence on later literature.
