Elegiae Liber 1 written by Sextus Propertius and has been published by Cambridge University Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1977 with Elegiac poetry, Latin categories.

Propertius, though his works are small in volume, is one of the foremost poets of the Augustan age, and his writing has a certain appeal to modern tastes (witness the admiration of Ezra Pound). Book I is especially suitable for the reader wanting a representative selection of Propertius' poetry. It stands on its own, having appeared in the first place as a separate collection; it reflects a distinct phase of the poet's activity (and of his emotional development); and it is the book which made his reputation. This edition is designed for the pocket of the university student, but it should find a wider audience among classicists of all ages. The introduction provides the necessary historical and critical background and relates Book I to the rest of the elegies; the notes are helpful and to the point; and the text has a reasonable minimum of apparatus. There are no modern editions of this size and scope.

What was it like to be in love in Rome? The 22 poems of Sextus Propertius' first book of elegies (published in 28 B.C.) offer an answer. Defiantly un-Roman in his devotion to his love for his Cynthia and to his art, Propertius writes with a strangely modern voice - passionate, wry, self-scrutinising and ironic. But it is a voice that has been shaped and controlled by a literary tradition already centuries old. This revised edition of Book I provides, in a verse translation which attempts to simulate the discipline and constraints of the hexameter/pentameter alternation in the elegiac couplets of the original poems, a handily self-contained Augustan poetry book - the earliest extant book of Latin love-elegy- to a readership without Latin. The Introduction and Commentary furnish the reader with explanations of the literary, mythological, historical and geographical allusions necessary for an understanding of the poems.
