Written between about 42 and 35 BC, ‘The Eclogues’ (
also called the Bucolics) is the first of the three major works of the Latin poet Virgil. ‘The Eclogues’ is a remarkable achievement of Virgil’s late twenties and shows that the poet, even at this early age, intended to develop a style distinct from those of his Greek and Roman predecessors. The ten-poem collection falls into three major categories:
Theocritean,
non-Theocritean and the
Daphnis poems.
Virgil invites the reader to bear witness to life in “
Arcadia, ” a place created by poetry, an idealized rural scene where people live in harmony with nature.
