The last decade has witnessed a surge of interest in the reception of Virgil, and Kallendorf’s new volume represents another instalment of his impressive life-long research in this area. Following on from his 2015 book The Protean Virgil, an investigation of the relevance of the material form of texts like Virgil’s to the cultures that received them, this time Kallendorf directs his attention to the role of print in the reception of classical authors, taking once again the Nachleben of the Augustan poet in the Renaissance as a case study.

"In this work Craig Kallendorf argues that the printing press played a crucial, and previously unrecognized, role in the reception of the Roman poet Virgil in the Renaissance. Using a new methodology developed at the Humboldt University in Berlin, Printing Virgil shows that the press established which commentaries were disseminated, provided signals for how the Virgilian translations were to be interpreted, shaped the discussion about the authenticity of the minor poems attributed to Virgil, and inserted this material into larger censorship concerns. The editions that were printed during this period transformed Virgil into a poet who could fit into Renaissance culture, but they also determined which aspects of his work could become visible at that time".
