Book Overview

""Parallels And Coincidences In Lucretius And Vergil"" is a book written by William Augustus Merrill and originally published in 1918. The book explores the similarities and coincidences between the works of two ancient Roman poets, Lucretius and Vergil. The author examines the themes, language, and literary techniques used by both poets in their respective works, such as Lucretius' ""De Rerum Natura"" and Vergil's ""Aeneid"". Merrill argues that despite the differences in their subject matter and style, there are numerous parallels and coincidences between the two poets that reveal a shared literary tradition and worldview.
