书籍简介

维吉尔于公元前70年出生在曼图亚，在克雷莫纳、米兰和罗马接受教育。他语速慢，举止腼腆，心思缜密，身体虚弱，回到北方过着清静的生活。可能受那里诗人群体的影响，他手稿中的一些诗令人质疑。现存让人肯定的作品都是他用六步格诗写成的。最早出现的是十首令人愉悦的田园诗《牧歌集》模仿了忒奥克里托斯的田园诗风格，写的主题是田园生活和爱情。在公元前29年前，出现了关于耕作、树木、牛和蜜蜂的四部土工学，本书是所有说教著作中最好的一部。维吉尔的余生都花在了创作他伟大的史诗《埃涅阿斯纪》上，这部史诗的传统主题是通过特洛伊的埃涅阿斯讲述罗马的起源。受奥古斯都皇帝统治的启发，这首诗在韵律和方法上是荷马式的，但后来他也受到希腊和罗马文学、哲学和知识，以及罗马精神的影响。维吉尔于公元前19年在从希腊回家的路上死于布伦迪翁，他原本打算在希腊完成《埃涅阿斯纪》。他在罗马留下了一个请求，如果他死了，那就销毁所有的十二本书，但它们是由他的遗嘱执行人出版的。

吉尔的勒布经典图书馆版有两卷。

Virgil (Publius Vergilius Maro) was born in 70 BCE near Mantua and was educated at Cremona, Milan and Rome. Slow in speech, shy in manner, thoughtful in mind, weak in health, he went back north for a quiet life. Influenced by the group of poets there, he may have written some of the doubtful poems included in our Virgilian manuscripts. All his undoubted extant work is written in his perfect hexameters. Earliest comes the collection of ten pleasingly artificial bucolic poems, the Eclogues, which imitated freely Theocritus's idylls. They deal with pastoral life and love. Before 29 BCE came one of the best of all didactic works, the four hooks of Georgics on tillage, trees, cattle, and bees. Virgil's remaining years were spent in composing his great, not wholly finished, epic the Aeneid, on the traditional theme of Rome's origins through Aeneas of Troy. Inspired by the Emperor Augustus's rule, the poem is Homeric in metre and method but influenced also by later Greek and Roman literature, philosophy, and learning, and deeply Roman in spirit. Virgil died in 19 BCE at Brundisium on his way home from Greece, where he had intended to round off the Aeneid. He had left in Rome a request that all its twelve books should be destroyed if he were to die then, but they were published by the executors of his will.

The Loeb Classical Library edition of Virgil is in two volumes.
