Theocritus (1869) is a book written by Charles Stuart Calverley. The book is a collection of poems by the Greek poet Theocritus, who lived in the third century BC. The poems are written in a style known as pastoral poetry, which celebrates the beauty of nature and rural life. Theocritus is considered one of the most important poets of the Hellenistic period, and his work has had a significant influence on later poets, including Virgil and Milton. In this book, Calverley provides a translation of Theocritus' poems into English, along with an introduction and notes that provide context and background information. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Greek literature, poetry, or the pastoral tradition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
