The Students Catullus: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "The Students Catullus" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Though his audacious erotic and satrical verses survived the Middle Ages in only a single copy, Catullus has become in this century a standard author in the college Latin curriculum, ranking with Virgil, Horace, and Ovid.This new, annotated Latin edition now makes these famous poems more accessible than ever to students of Catullus own language. The Students Catullus places its emphasis on understanding the original Latin text rather than merely translating it into English. A complete Latin-English vocabulary explains the meaning of Catullus words; notes to each poem illuminate the meaning of his language, with explanations of word choice, word order, sound effects, and metric artistry. Historical and literary allusions are also explained, with the result that students enter deeper into the poets world than the best English translation can suggest. The Students Catullus makes it clear why we still read Catullus in Latin.

Preface

This edition is specifically designed for students who are studying Catullus for the first time. The text is therefore a reading text (not a strictly conservative scholar's version), with readings that will interfere as little as possible with the poetry as a whole. The commentary is the result of my own encounters with the Latin text, enlightened by my students, the commentaries of Ellis, Merrill, Fordyce, and Quinn, and as much of the current scholarship as I could review in the past year. Like the text, this commentary is meant to interfere as little as possible with the reading of the poems. It does not as a rule call attention to parallels in other authors, participate in scholarly controversies, or promote specific judgments of literary value. Its chief purpose is to help readers over difficulties with the Latin, and to offer such help as unobtrusively as possible. To assist the reader further, the commentary is supplemented by end materials: a list of Catullan persons (appendix A), a guide to Catullan meters (appendix B), a glossary of rhetorical and other classical terminology (appendix C), a guide to Catullan usage (appendix D), six maps, and a comprehensive lexicon of Catullan Latin. This package should allow any reader familiar with Latin basics to read Catullus with good understanding and to make reasonably informed judgments about the poetry he wrote.
