About this listen

Virgils Georgics stands as the second of his three major poetic masterpieces, likely published around 29 BC. This captivating piece, focused on the art of agriculture, is divided into four books, making it the briefest of Virgils principal works with just 2,188 hexametric verses. Drawing inspiration from a rich tapestry of earlier sources, Georgics has left an indelible mark on countless authors from ancient times to the modern era. - Summary by Leni
