Serviani in Vergili Aeneidos libros IX-XII commentarii: Special Publications of the Society for Classical Studies

Editat de Charles E. Murgia, Robert A. Kaster
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 10 mai 2018
This edition of the Servian commentaries on Aeneid 9-12 was originally conceived as the final volume of the so-called "Harvard Servius", begun by Edward Kennard Rand and his students at Harvard in the 1920s. Nearly a century farther on, the projects vicissitudes are too well known and too complex to bear repeating here: it is enough to say that this is the first new volume of the commentary to appear in over fifty years. On his death in 2013 Charles E. Murgia left publishable versions of the text, upper and lower critical apparatuses, and large parts of the introduction, and he had gather most of the data for the testimonial apparatus. Robert A. Kaster completed the work on the testimonia and introduction (using some of Murgia's unpublished writings to supplement the latter), added some subsidiary elements, and prepared the whole for publication. Thanks primarily to the work of Charles Murgia, this edition is superior to its predecessors in the same series, and to all other editions of Servius, in every respect.

Recenzii

Their edition is worthy of praise: needless to say, it is set to become the reference edition of Servius and the Seruius auctus over many decades. Given the great usefulness of these commentaries, not so much to the understanding of Virgil's oeuvre but rather for the study of what we may call 'Virgilian exegetical stratification,' as well as for our knowledge of the culture of Late Antiquity, Murgia's and Kaster's work is to be welcomed with enthusiasm and gratitude.
