The poetry of Virgil occupied a central position in the intellectual,
artistic, and political lives of the Renaissance. This volume brings
together studies by scholars from a range of academic disciplines,
covering the crucial areas of education and court culture, the visual
arts, music history, philosophy, and Neo-Latin and vernacular
literature. In addition to offering new perspectives on some familiar
texts and artifacts, the essays collected here present a wealth of
material that has received little or no previous scholarly attention.
