Book Overview

The Argonautica of Gaius Valerius Flaccus Balbus, Book 1 is a classic epic poem written by the Roman poet Gaius Valerius Flaccus. The book tells the story of the legendary voyage of the Argonauts, a group of Greek heroes who sailed from Greece to Colchis in search of the Golden Fleece. The poem is divided into twelve books, and this particular edition focuses on the first book. The book is written in Latin, but this edition includes an English translation, making it accessible to a wider audience. The Argonautica is known for its vivid descriptions of the adventures of the heroes, the exotic locations they visit, and the mythical creatures they encounter. It is a must-read for anyone interested in ancient Greek mythology and epic poetry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
