The Æneid of Virgil Translated Into Scottish Verse. Volumes 1 & 2
by Virgil
Translated by Gawin Douglas
"The Æneid of Virgil Translated Into Scottish Verse. Volumes 1 & 2" by Virgil, translated by Gavin Douglas, is a translation completed in 1513. This groundbreaking work renders Virgil's epic Latin poem into Middle Scots, marking the first complete translation of a major classical text in Scots and the first successful attempt in any Anglic language. Douglas adds original prologues to each book, a translation of Maffeo Vegio's thirteenth-book continuation, and concluding poems. His vibrant verse reimagines the ancient epic through a Scottish lens.
