Playing the Farmer: Representations of Rural Life in Vergil’s Georgics
Philip Thibodeau
Helps in our understanding of Vergil's "Georgics", a vibrant work written by Rome's premier epic poet shortly before he began the "Aeneid". The author connects the poem's idyllic, and idealized, portrait of rustic life and agriculture with changing attitudes toward the countryside in late Republican and early Imperial Rome.
