Description

Vergil and the Trinity examines how Rome's greatest poet has been appropriated, revised, and distorted across centuries of literary and theological interpretation. This Routledge publication explores the complex relationship between Virgil's classical works and later religious traditions, tracing how subsequent generations reinterpreted his verse through the lens of Christian theology and philosophy. The book investigates the mechanisms of textual appropriation and asks how classical literature survives transformation across vastly different cultural and spiritual contexts. Scholars of ancient Rome, medieval studies, and comparative literature will find this work essential for understanding how classical texts acquire new meanings when encountered by readers operating within entirely different worldviews. The study demonstrates that Virgil's influence extends far beyond his own era, revealing how the act of reading itself becomes an act of revision.
