I am a PG student and I find this book totally perfect because it deals with a number of topics, shedding light on pastoral genre in total.
Generally speaking, this edition is just a perfect book!!! I think it is a vademecum, not only for bucolic poetry.
Dr Lipka is an expert. He was an instructor of me at the University of Patras and I know that his work is always complete!!!
