Publisher's Synopsis
Argonauticon Libri Octo est poema heroicum a Gaius Valerius Flaccus scriptum, quod fabulam Iasonis et Argonautarum narrat. Poema octo libros continet, quibus in singulis libris res gestae Argonautarum, eorumque expeditionis ad Colchidem, describuntur. Flaccus, qui vixit sub imperatore Vespasiano, poema suum a Virgilio et Ovidio, qui fabulam similiter tractaverunt, inspiratum esse dixit. Poema est notum propter elegantiam et copiam verborum, quae Flacco proprias sunt. Editio anno 1875 publicata est.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
