Description: Cultivating Peace : The Virgilian Georgic in English, 1, Hardcover by Schoenberger, Melissa, ISBN 1684480485, ISBN-13 9781684480487, Brand New, Free shipping in the US During the decades following the English civil wars, says Schoenberger, English poets such as Andrew Marvell, John Dryden, and Anne Finch made sense of the political instabilities of their time by turning to Virgil's Georgics, which he wrote during a period of similarly brutal conflict in Rome. She characterizes it as an agricultural poem that distrusts easy stability and urges its readers to understand that lasting peace must be sowed, tended, reaped, and replanted year after year.
