Excerpt from Selections From Tibullus and Propertius Now Virgil died at Brundusium on the 22nd Sept., B. C. 19, and the words of Domitius imply that Tibullus died at the same time, or at least Shortly afterwards. We may therefore assume that his death took place at the end of B. C. 19, or the beginning of B. C. 18. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Selections From Tibullus and Propertius The following selection from Tibullus and Propertius has been prepared specially to meet the wants of the students of this University; but no apology need be offered for any attempt, however imperfect, to rescue from comparative neglect the best portions of two of the most fascinating and suggestive of Latin poets, and to supply such help for their interpretation as may bring them within the range of ordinary classical instruction, whether at Schools or Universities. It is scarcely creditable that in a country which avowedly places its higher instruction upon a classical basis, the works of two of the most characteristic poets of the best age of Latin poetry should be practically unknown to our schools, and ignored in University examinations. We may grant the transcendent merits, for educational purposes, of Virgil and of Horace; but it is impossible not to regret that the choice of Latin poets should run in so narrow a round, and that no place should be found for the graceful, refined Tibullus, or for that rare poetic genius whom Professor Postgate has justly styled 'the greatest elegiac poet of Rome.'
