Lydia, a Poem from the Appendix Vergiliana

Introduction, Text, Translation, and Commentary

Herausgeber: Kayachev, Boris

Beschreibung

The Lydia is a bucolic monody lamenting the singer's separation from his beloved, Lydia. The new Latin text, accompanied by an English translation, offers numerous improvements against that of previous editions, while the commentary provides comprehensive textual, linguistic, and literary exegesis of the poem in its cultural context.

After study in Moscow, Berlin and Leeds, Boris Kayachev went on to held research fellowships in Trondheim, Dublin, Moscow, Oxford and Basel. Boris has published on a wide array of Greek and Latin poetry, but the main focus of his research has been on the Appendix Vergiliana.
