{"product_id":"virgil-aeneid-xii-bk-12-latin-texts","title":"Virgil: Aeneid XII: Bk. 12 (Latin Texts)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis\u003cbr\u003e edition, originally published in 1953 in the admirable Methuen Classical\u003cbr\u003e Texts series, has been maintained in print by Bradda Books. This longevity is\u003cbr\u003e deserved; for it remains a very fine edition, manageable at different levels\u003cbr\u003e of attainment. Maguinness had chiefly in mind students at sixth-form or early\u003cbr\u003e university level but, for the benefit of less practised students taking GCSE\u003cbr\u003e or in their second year of Latin bugun at University, he wisely included a\u003cbr\u003e Vocabulary (marked with syllable lengths to tie in with his very useful\u003cbr\u003e section on scansion and reading aloud) and a considerable amount of fairly\u003cbr\u003e elementary linguistic matter in the Notes. The Introduction gives an outline\u003cbr\u003e of the background knowledge needed by a beginner in Virgilian studies. For a\u003cbr\u003e succinct and always level-headed approach to the \"Aeneid\", this remains a splendid edition - one for which more advanced\u003cbr\u003e Virgilians still have every reason to be thankful; and Book XII gives an\u003cbr\u003e excellent flavour of the whole epic and the meaning of its constantly\u003cbr\u003e enigmatic closure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"sb-details\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9781853992445\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Poor Condition — £2.98","offer_id":47918348730545,"sku":"SB-1853992445-C4","price":2.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/2669\/5345\/files\/1853992445.jpg?v=1789691003","url":"https:\/\/sellbooks.co.uk\/products\/virgil-aeneid-xii-bk-12-latin-texts","provider":"Sell Books .co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
