Epic and Empire: Politics and Generic Form from Virgil to Milton - Literature in History

Explores the political context and meanings of key works in Western literature. This book covers Virgilian epics of conquest and empire that take the victors' side (the "Aeneid" itself, Camoes's "Lusiadas", Tasso's "Gerusalemme liberata") and the countervailing epic of the defeated and of republican liberty.
