Vergil's Green Thoughts: Plants, Humans, and the Divine
Armstrong, Rebecca (Mary Bennett Fellow and Tutor in Classics at St Hilda's College, Oxford, and Associate Professor in Classical Languages and Literature at the Faculty of Classics, Mary Bennett Fellow and Tutor in Classics at St Hilda's College, Oxford,
Vergil's poetry abounds with plant-life, yet much criticism underestimates its significance beyond attractive background detail or the occasional symbolic set-piece. This in-depth study reveals how Vergil used plants to reflect both on ancient religious attitudes to the natural world and on ideas of the human role as cultivator and controller.
