"Quintus Ennius (239-169 BC), widely regarded as the father of Roman literature, was
instrumental in creating a new Roman literary identity and inspired major developments
in Roman religion, social organization, and popular culture. Brought in 204 to Rome
in the entourage of Cato, Ennius took up residence on the Aventine and, fluent in
his native Oscan as well as Greek and Latin, became one of the first teachers to introduce
Greek learning to Romans through public readings of Greek and Latin texts. Best known
for domesticating Greek epic and drama, Ennius also pursued a wide range of literary
endeavors and found success in almost all of them. His tragedies were long regarded
as classics of the genre, and his Annals gave Roman epic its canonical shape and pioneered
many of its most characteristic features. Other works included philosophical works
in prose and verse, epigrams, didactic poems, dramas on Roman themes (praetextae),
and occasional poetry that informed the later development of satire. This two-volume
edition of Ennius, which inaugurates the Loeb series Fragmentary Republican Latin,
replaces that of Warmington in Remains of Old Latin, Volume I and offers fresh texts,
translations, and annotation that are fully current with modern scholarship."--Publisher's
