The Lydia is a bucolic monody lamenting the singer's separation from his beloved, Lydia. The new Latin text, accompanied by an English translation, offers numerous improvements against that of previous editions, while the commentary provides comprehensive textual, linguistic, and literary exegesis of the poem in its cultural context.
