About this book

"Τα Γεωργικά" by Virgil is a poem likely published in 29 BCE. This agricultural work explores farming through four books covering crops, trees, livestock, and beekeeping. Far from simple pastoral verse, the poem presents agriculture as humanity's struggle against nature, weaving together technical instruction with mythological tales, including the stories of Orpheus and Eurydice. Tensions between labor and fate, golden ages and current hardships, and rural virtue versus urban corruption shape this complex work that influenced countless later authors.
