Synopsis

This is a scholarly edition of "Germanici Caesaris Aratea," featuring the text along with the scholia edited by Alfredus Breysig. The "Aratea" is a Latin translation and adaptation of the Greek astronomical poem by Aratus of Soli. Germanicus Caesar, a prominent Roman general and member of the Julio-Claudian dynasty, rendered Aratus's work into Latin verse, making it accessible to a wider Roman audience. This edition provides valuable insights into classical Roman literature, astronomy, and the transmission of Greek knowledge to the Roman world. It is an essential resource for scholars and students interested in classical poetry, the history of science, and the cultural exchange between Greece and Rome.
