Nos 3 and 4 Read by Stephen Murray. Ian Cross and Jonathan Newth
The third Eclogue is a singing match between two shepherd boys. The fourth is the famous Messianic Eclogue in which Virgil seems to be foretelling the coming of the Christian era, the Virgin Birth and the rise of the Church - an Eclogue which put Virgil in the highest esteem of the later Church Fathers and still later gave to Dante the inspiration to make Virgil the guide in his Divine Comedy.

"The older one gets, the more startling and agreeable it is to discover a major writer who was always there to be discovered, if one had only known".

The novelist A.S. Byatt reinterprets the novels of Willa Cather, a contemporary of Henry James, who grew up in Nebraska and whose deceptively matter-of-fact and atmospheric tales of pioneer life unfairly earned her a reputation for naivety.
