This volume brings together the works of three significant figures in Latin poetry: Catullus, Tibullus, and the anonymous author of the 'Pervigilium Veneris.' Gaius Valerius Catullus (c. 84 - c. 54 BC) is renowned for his passionate and often scandalous lyric poetry, which explores themes of love, loss, and friendship with striking emotional intensity. Tibullus (c. 55 - 19 BC) offers a more elegiac and introspective voice, reflecting on themes of rural life, love, and the transience of beauty. The 'Pervigilium Veneris,' a late Latin poem celebrating the festival of Venus, is included for its unique combination of pagan imagery and lyrical beauty.Edited and translated by esteemed scholars Francis Warre Cornish, J. P. Postgate, and J. W. Mackail, this collection provides accessible translations alongside the original Latin text, making it an invaluable resource for students and enthusiasts of classical literature.
