Author Description

Excerpt from Selected Fragments of Roman Poetry: From the Earliest Times of the Republic to the Augustan Age This little volume is an attempt to meet a difficulty which is often felt by young students of Roman poetry, -the want of a convenient handbook, containing a sufficiently representative selection from the fragments which have been preserved of the epic, dramatic, and satiric poets of Rome, from the earliest times of the Republic to the Augustan age.
