2001Scholar's name to ffep (Robert Brown). Light bump to lower edge of front board. DJ has minor edgewear with 1 small tear. ; This book examines the ideological reception of Virgil at specific moments in the past two millennia. It focuses on the emperor Augustus in the poetry of Virgil, detects in the poets and grammarians of antiquity pro- and anti-Augustan readings, studies Dryden's 1697 Royalist translation, and also naive American translation. It scrutinizes nineteenth-century philology's rewriting or excision of troubling readings, and covers readings by both supporters and opponents of fascism and National Socialism. Finally it examines how successive ages have made the Aeneid conform to their upbeat expectations of this poet. ; 346 pages

Paulus Bel exemplaire bien complet des 2 parties. Il s'agit de l'un des toutes premières impressions réalisés dans la ville de Siegen (Westphalie) par l'imprimeur protestant né à Zurich, Christoph Corvin (1552-1620), avec sa belle marque d'imprimeur aux corbeaux avitaillant Elie. Corvin avait suivi l'Académie calviniste de Herborn jusqu'à Siegen en 1595. Une ancienne annotation manuscrite en anglais, rédigée en garde et attribuable au rédacteur de l'ex-libris, William R. Williams, relève dans l'avant-dernière page de la préface l'évocation des "Victims of St Barthelemeos Massacres throughout France 22 years before estimated at 60.000". A propos de la page 16 de la seconde partie, il commente : "pointing gunpowder not modern inventions". Concernant la page 61 : "Idle walking condemned in Sparta". Beautiful copy, complete with both parts. This is one of the very first prints made in the city of Siegen (Westphalia) by the Zurich-born printer Christoph Corvin (1552-1620), with his beautiful printer's mark : Elie fed by ravens. Corvin had arrived there in Siegen with the Calvinist Academy of Herborn in 1595. An old handwritten annotation in English, written on front endpaper and attributable to the author of the ex-libris, William R. Williams, notes in the penultimate page from the preface the evocation of "Victims of St Barthelemeos Massacres throughout France 22 years before estimated at 60,000". Regarding page 16 of the second part, he comments: "pointing gunpowder not modern inventions". Regarding page 61: "Idle walking condemned in Sparta". latin
