The Works: Containing His Pastorals, Georgics And Aeneis; Volume 2

By Virgil

This second volume contains the works of Virgil, including his Pastorals, Georgics, and the Aeneid, presented in English. This edition showcases the enduring legacy of Publius Vergilius Maro, more commonly known as Virgil, one of Rome's greatest poets.

Included are the "Pastorals," offering idyllic scenes of rural life; the "Georgics," exploring the art of agriculture and the beauty of the natural world; and the epic "Aeneid," recounting the journey of Aeneas and the founding of Rome. These works, translated by John Dryden, offer readers a glimpse into the classical world through accessible and timeless verse. Dryden's masterful translation brings Virgil's poetic genius to life for a new audience, ensuring that the beauty and power of these classical works continue to resonate with readers today.
