| Zusammenfassung: | In this book Professor Kronenberg shows that Xenophon's Oeconomicus, Varro's De Re Rustica and Virgil's Georgics are not simply works on farming but belong to a tradition of philosophical satire which uses allegory and irony to question the meaning of morality. These works metaphorically connect farming and its related arts to political life; but instead of presenting farming in its traditional guise as a positive symbol, they use it to model the deficiencies of the active life, which in turn is juxtaposed to a preferred contemplative way of life. Although these three texts are not usually treated together, this book convincingly connects them with an original and provocative interpretation of their allegorical use of farming. It also fills an important gap in our understanding of the literary influences on the Georgics by showing that it is shaped not just by its poetic predecessors but by philosophical dialogue. |

Although these three texts are not usually treated together, this book convincingly connects them with an original and provocative interpretation of their allegorical use of farming. It also fills an important gap in our understanding of the literary influences on the Georgics by showing that it is shaped not just by its poetic predecessors but by philosophical dialogue.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="600" ind1="0" ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Xenophon.</subfield><subfield code="t">Oeconomicus.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no92015458</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="600" ind1="1" ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Varro, Marcus Terentius.</subfield><subfield code="t">Rerum rusticarum libri tres.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n83319015</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="600" ind1="0" ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Virgil.</subfield><subfield code="t">Georgica.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="630" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Georgica (Virgil)</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="630" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Oeconomicus (Xenophon)</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="630" ind1="0" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Rerum rusticarum libri tres (Varro, Marcus Terentius)</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="600" ind1="1" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Xenophon.</subfield><subfield code="t">Oeconomicus.</subfield><subfield code="2">swd</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="600" ind1="1" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Varro, Marcus Terentius.</subfield><subfield code="t">Res rusticae.</subfield><subfield code="2">swd</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="600" ind1="1" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Vergilius Maro, Publius.</subfield><subfield code="t">Georgica.</subfield><subfield code="2">swd</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Agriculture in literature.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh93008202</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Satire, Greek</subfield><subfield code="x">History and criticism.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Satire, Latin</subfield><subfield code="x">History and criticism.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Agriculture, Ancient</subfield><subfield code="z">Greece.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Agriculture, Ancient</subfield><subfield code="z">Rome.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Agriculture dans la littérature.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Satire grecque</subfield><subfield code="x">Histoire et critique.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Agriculture ancienne</subfield><subfield code="z">Grèce.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Agriculture ancienne</subfield><subfield code="z">Rome.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">LITERARY CRITICISM</subfield><subfield code="x">Ancient & Classical.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Agriculture, Ancient</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Agriculture in literature</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Satire, Greek</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Satire, Latin</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Greece</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJxd6hw8HtWYq9JY6hjjYP</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Rome (Empire)</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Satire</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="0">http://d-nb.info/gnd/4051752-4</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Criticism, interpretation, etc.</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="758" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="i">has work:</subfield><subfield code="a">Allegories of farming from Greece and Rome (Text)</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PCFt6VGVTHT3X6XDK78CJ6q</subfield><subfield code="4">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/ontology/hasWork</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="a">Kronenberg, Leah, 1976-</subfield><subfield code="t">Allegories of farming from Greece and Rome.</subfield><subfield code="d">Cambridge, UK ;

Cambridge, UK ; New York : Cambridge University Press, 2009. 1 online resource (xi, 223 pages) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Includes bibliographical references and index. 1. Socrates and Critobulus (Oec. 1-6) -- 2. A philosopher and a gentleman (Oec. 7-21) -- 3. The art of farming -- 4. The morality of farming -- 5. The politics of farming -- 6. Virgil's satire on farming -- 7. Farmers and poets. Print version record. In this book Professor Kronenberg shows that Xenophon's Oeconomicus, Varro's De Re Rustica and Virgil's Georgics are not simply works on farming but belong to a tradition of philosophical satire which uses allegory and irony to question the meaning of morality. These works metaphorically connect farming and its related arts to political life; but instead of presenting farming in its traditional guise as a positive symbol, they use it to model the deficiencies of the active life, which in turn is juxtaposed to a preferred contemplative way of life. Although these three texts are not usually treated together, this book convincingly connects them with an original and provocative interpretation of their allegorical use of farming. It also fills an important gap in our understanding of the literary influences on the Georgics by showing that it is shaped not just by its poetic predecessors but by philosophical dialogue.
