A Study of P. Papinius Statius Thebais and His Imitation of Vergil's Aeneid is a scholarly work written by Ernest Darwin Daniells in 1906. The book focuses on the epic poem Thebais, written by the Roman poet Statius in the late 1st century AD, and its relationship to the earlier work of Vergil, specifically the Aeneid. Daniells analyzes the ways in which Statius imitated and adapted Vergil's style and themes, while also exploring the unique qualities of Thebais as a literary work in its own right. The book provides a detailed examination of the language, structure, and symbolism of both poems, with a particular emphasis on the ways in which Statius sought to differentiate himself from his predecessor. Aimed at scholars and students of classical literature, A Study of P. Papinius Statius Thebais and His Imitation of Vergil's Aeneid offers a comprehensive and insightful analysis of one of the most important works of Latin epic poetry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
