Far from offering mere escapism, the ten poems construct a world in which shepherds, poets, lovers, and political subjects grapple with questions of justice, desire, community, and artistic responsibility. This book lays the groundwork for understanding pastoral ethics as a central, animating force in the \u003cem\u003eEclogues\u003c\/em\u003e, shaping not only the characters' interactions but also the poet's own negotiation of his historical moment. The pastoral world that Virgil creates is not a refuge from ethical complexity but a medium through which ethical tensions are refracted, intensified, and sometimes transformed.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Colloquium Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47892653211799,"sku":"9798235000551","price":1351.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798235000551.webp?v=1781188007","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/pastoral-ethics-in-the-virgils-eclogues-9798235000551","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
