Focusing on agriculture, Virgil's poem explores the complexities of rural life, blending serene imagery with underlying conflicts. Written around 29 BCE, it serves as a bridge between his earlier Eclogues and the later Aeneid, showcasing his mastery in didactic poetry. Influenced by Greek predecessors like Hesiod, the work emphasizes the relationship between humanity and the land, while also reflecting on seasonal changes. The poem's historical context and its impact on subsequent literature highlight its enduring significance in the canon of classical works.
