Excerpt from Theocritus: Translated Into English Verse Is probable that very many more readers have been startled by the genius of Theocritus, because, while we make the acquaintance of Homer at a pre-critical stage of our development, Theocritus does not burst upon us until the critic is born in us, if destined ever to come to the birth. The bloom is rubbed ofi' Homer during our school days. I shall never forget the astonishment with which I first read the Idylls, nor the conviction with which a fellow student - also in troduced for the first time to Theocritus - maintained his marked superiority to the father of Epic poetry. For one must, with sainte-beuve, couple together the two poets as the supreme types of majesty and beauty in Greek poetry. Virgil' s Eclogues, unlike the Idylls, meet us in early boyhood, and for the adult are clothed in the celestial light which plays round the morning of life.

Theocritus, translated into English verse is a long poem consisting of 31 idylls. Excerpt: "THYRSIS. Sweet are the whispers of yon pine that make Low music o'er the spring, and, Goatherd, sweet Thy piping; second thou to Pan alone. Is he the horned ram? then thine the goat. Is his the goat? to thee shall fall the kid; And toothsome is the flesh of unmilked kids. GOATHERD. Shepherd, thy lay is as the noise of streams Falling and falling aye from yon tall crag."

This highly original work builds on two neglected facts about Virgil's Book of Bucolics: its popularity on the bawdy Roman stage and its impact as sequence poetry on readers and writers from the Classical world through the present day. The Bucolics profoundly influenced a wide range of canonical literary figures, from the contemporaneous Horace, Propertius, and Ovid through such successors as Calpurnius, Sannazaro, Marot, Spenser, Milton, Wordsworth, Robert Frost, and W. H. Auden. As performed, the work scored early success. John Van Sickle's artfully rendered translation, its stage cues, and the explanatory notes treat for the first time the book's ten short pieces as a thematic web. He pays close heed to themes that return, vary throughout the work, and develop as leitmotifs, inviting readers to trace the threads and ultimately to experience the last eclogue as a grand finale. Introductory notes identify cues for casting, dramatic gesture, and voice, pointing to topics that stirred the Roman crowd and satisfied powerful patrons. Back notes offer clues to the ambitious literary program implicit in the voices, plots, and themes. Taken as a whole, this volume shows how the Bucolics inaugurated Virgil's lifelong campaign to colonize for Rome the prestigious Greek genres of epic and tragedy -- winning contemporary acclaim and laying the groundwork for his poetic legend. Reframing pastoral tradition in Europe and America, Van Sickle's rendering of the Book of Bucolics is ideal for students of literature and their teachers, for scholars of classical literature and the pastoral genre, and for poetological and cognitive theorists. -- A. R. Gurney, award-winning playwright and member of the Theatre Hall of Fame and the American Academy of Arts and Letters
