Description
Explore the deep connections between classical literature and early modern culture with The Virgilian Tradition II. This volume by historian Craig Kallendorf offers thirteen essays that examine how the works of Virgil were received and interpreted during the Renaissance. Instead of looking only at the poems themselves, this study focuses on the physical books that shaped how readers engaged with the text. By analyzing early printed editions of the Eclogues, Georgics, Aeneid, and Appendix Virgiliana, the text reveals how paratextual elements influenced readers. You will find detailed insights into how prefaces, dedicatory letters, and various commentaries were used to build a more nuanced understanding of Virgil's work. This collection is an essential resource for those studying the history of the book, classical reception, and the evolution of early modern reading practices.
