God and the Land
The Metaphysics of Farming in Hesiod and Vergil. With a translation of Hesiod's Works and Days by David Grene
Stephanie Nelson
With translations by David Grene
Connects Hesiod's Works and Days and Vergil's Georgics through agriculture and pastoral themes bringing them together with a metaphysical eye
Includes new translation of Hesiod's Works and Days

Description
The Works and Days of Hesiod and Vergil's Georgics are fundamental texts in the classical canon. Here Nelson brings them together with a metaphysical eye, showing how the two writers each viewed the farming lifestyle as a system of belief unto itself. She represents the ethos of the farm as a way of understanding the earth, the gods, and man between them in vital relation to each other. This study also includes a sparkling new translation of Works and Days by esteemed translator David Grene.
