The study of Roman ethical thought has long been shaped by the voices of philosophers, statesmen, and historians, yet few figures have exercised as pervasive and enduring an influence as Virgil. His poetry, composed at a moment of profound political transformation and cultural self‑definition, became not merely a literary achievement but a foundational text for Roman moral imagination. To explore Virgil’s role in shaping ethical discourse is to enter a world where poetry and philosophy, myth and politics, personal emotion and public duty, all converge in a single artistic vision. This book begins from the premise that Virgil was not only a poet of extraordinary aesthetic power but also a thinker whose works articulated, interrogated, and ultimately transformed the ethical frameworks of Rome.
