Recenzii
These original essays offer a welcome boost to study of the Georgics.
In a very well done introduction, B. Xinyue and N. Freer, having explained their motives in detail, take stock of the Georgics' approaches in the second half of the 20th century and at the start of the 21st century. One can immediately tell that they are experts in the subject. Not only do they cite many books, they also analyse them at length, with precision and finesse.
Their introduction is a useful mise à jour, nicely surveying recent work.
