Summary

The first new addition to the "Harvard Servius" to appear in over fifty years, this edition of the Servian commentaries on Aeneid 9-12 is superior to all previous editions of Servius in the constitution and layout of its text, its accurate and thorough critical apparatuses, and its rich collection of testimonia.

Additional text

Their edition is worthy of praise: needless to say, it is set to become the reference edition of Servius and the Seruius auctus over many decades. Given the great usefulness of these commentaries, not so much to the understanding of Virgil's oeuvre but rather for the study of what we may call 'Virgilian exegetical stratification,' as well as for our knowledge of the culture of Late Antiquity, Murgia's and Kaster's work is to be welcomed with enthusiasm and gratitude.
