This study by the Virgilian scholar R.\u003cbr\u003e Deryck Williams, first published in 1987 and long unavailable, sets the Aeneid in its historical literary\u003cbr\u003e background and shows how Virgil related his own world of the newly\u003cbr\u003e established Roman Empire to the experience of the past. The poetic qualities\u003cbr\u003e of epic are analysed and illustrated by frequent quotations from the Latin, \u003cbr\u003e always with prose translations. The book will be appreciated by students and\u003cbr\u003e teachers of literature, and by knowledgeable non-academic readers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe late\u003cbr\u003e R.D.
