Description

Scarronides Or Virgil Travesty: A Mock Poem, On The First And Fourth Books Of Virgil��s Aeneis, In English Burlesque is a book written by Charles Cotton and published in 1804. The book is a parody of Virgil's Aeneid, specifically the first and fourth books. It is written in English burlesque, a style of writing that uses humor and satire to mock serious subjects. The book follows the story of Aeneas, a Trojan hero who is destined to found the city of Rome. However, in this version, the story is told in a comical and exaggerated manner, with absurd situations and characters. The book is a humorous take on a classic epic poem and provides a unique perspective on Virgil's work.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
