This volume presents the hunting poems of Grattius Faliscus and Marcus Aurelius Olympius Nemesianus, two significant figures in Latin literature. Grattius's Cynegeticon offers detailed advice on hunting dogs and the pursuit of various game animals, providing valuable insights into Roman attitudes toward nature and the practical aspects of the hunt. Nemesianus's Cynegeticon further explores the theme of hunting, while the inclusion of fragments De Aucupio sheds light on the practice of falconry.
Edited by Reinhard August Heinrich Stern, this edition offers a valuable resource for students and scholars of classical literature, Roman history, and the history of hunting. The poems, written in elegant Latin verse, capture the spirit of the Roman countryside and the enduring appeal of the hunt.
