Words and the Poet: Characteristic Techniques of Style in Vergil's Aeneid
Lyne, R. O. A. M. (Fellow and Tutor in Classics, Fellow and Tutor in Classics, Balliol College, Oxford)
Vergil largely avoided artifices of poetic diction, preferring ordinary language, and using words which conventional poets thought too prosaic or colloquial. This book identifies such diction in Vergil and examines the methods by which he turned this into poetry.
