Sobre este artículo
Almost five thousand books, including editions in the original Latin and in translation, are entered into the bibliography. The entries rest on direct observation of books in two large, discrete Virgil collections, along with material gathered from twenty-eight databases and specialized bibliographies and from individual libraries throughout the world. This bibliography is three times the size of its predecessor, Giuliano Mambelli's now over fifty year old Gli annali delle edizioni virgiliani, filling out and correcting the record in ways that have only become possible in the computer age.
Each entry contains information on the printer and place of publication, the names of any translators, editors, and commentators, and an indication of where a copy of the book may be found. An index of names allows cultural historians to connect Virgil to the scholarly activities of succeeding generations, while indices of printers and places of publication serve the needs of printing historians.
