1588 VIRGIL 1^ed Pagan gods & Mythology Tournon Jesuits Coyssard Aeneid Turnonia

“Audaces fortuna iuvat- (Fortune favors the bold).”

― Virgil

Virgil is regularly considered one of the greatest Roman poets. His epic poems, ‘Eclogues,’ ‘Georgics,’ and ‘Aeneid’ are some of the most important works of western literature. These works, especially “Aeneid”, are rich with descriptions of pagan gods and stories of mythology.

In the 16^th-century, students and faculty at the Jesuit University of Tournon, led by Michel Coyssard, compiled a collection of Virgil’s writings on the subject of pagan gods and mythology. This 1588 edition is a fine printing of excerpts of the works of Virgil.
