"The Eclogues of Virgil gave definitive form to the pastoral mode, and these magically beautiful poems, so influential in so much subsequent literature, perhaps best exemplify what pastoral can do."--BOOK JACKET. "These songs made a world; it is a world all the more beautiful for being vulnerab1e to the intrusions of power and of natural calamity and loss."--BOOK JACKET.

"A bilingual edition, The Eclogues of Virgil: A Translation includes concise, informative notes and an introduction that describes the fundamental role of this deeply original book in the great pastoral tradition."--BOOK JACKET.
