Virgil Virgil Boeken
Vergilius was een oude Romeinse dichter wiens werken worden beschouwd als het hoogtepunt van de Latijnse literatuur. Zijn meest gerenommeerde composities, waaronder de nationale epos die de stichting van Rome beschrijft, zijn fundamenteel geworden voor de westerse literaire tradities. Zijn poëzie verkent thema's als lotsbestemming, plicht en de zoektocht naar een thuisland. De invloed van zijn meesterlijke stijl en verhaaltechniek resoneert door de werken van talloze latere schrijvers.
