Chers amis de la liste,
<p>Quelqu'un qui aurait le commentaire de Norden à portée
de la main pourrait-il me dire ce qu'on y trouve en substance à
propos de l'anastrophe ?
<br>La référence dont je dispose vient de Platnauer : <i>Aeneis
Buch VI</i>, 1926, 402-404.
<br>Je serais très reconnaissant à quiconque me tirerait
d'affaire.

It may help this discussion to recall the philology with which Mynors
always began his Georgics lectures. "You will find many jokes in the
Georgics, as Virgil warns us in the very first line. The bright young
things in Rome are meant to dream of a romantic picture of happy, waving
crops (laetas segetes), but, as any good farmer knows, crops only wave
in the wind after a good dose of manure. Go and look up laetamen in your
dictionary and work out what censored verb the words must really come
from." I missed this sorely in his official edition of the Georgics. I
always used it up to the time I retired.
I know that doesn't help with compost; sorry.
