Par autoru
Publius Vergilius Maro, known as Virgil, was a preeminent poet of the Roman Empire, born on October 15, 70 BCE, near Mantua, in Northern Italy. His literary creations have been a cornerstone in classical education, influencing Western literature for centuries. Virgil's magnum opus, 'The Aeneid,' an epic poem written in dactylic hexameter, tells the legendary story of Aeneas, a Trojan who traveled to Italy and became the ancestor of the Romans. This epic has been celebrated for its national epic quality, its complex and sympathetic portrayal of heroism, as well as its profound influence on later writers, such as Dante Alighieri. What sets Virgil's works apart is their intricate synthesis of technical skill and emotional depth. His poetic style combines innovation with a deep respect for Homeric tradition. His other notable works include the 'Eclogues' (or 'Bucolics'), a collection of ten pastoral poems, and the 'Georgics,' a poem in four books that can be seen as a homage to the land and farmers. Virgil's exploration of human emotions, his mastery of form and meter, and his profound impact on the literary canon, ensure his enduring legacy in the tapestry of world literature. He died on September 21, 19 BCE, in Brundisium, Italy, having established himself as a central figure in the pantheon of Western poets.
