The Roman poet Statius' 4th book of "Silvae", published in AD 95, follows its preface with nine poems celebrating occasions from the building of a road to the gift-giving Saturnalian festival. This commentary includes Latin text and facing English translation.

And in a helpful series of notes, he offers background information on the major characters and incidents.

The "Silvae" of Statius have been preserved in one corrupt 15th century manuscript. This work takes the view that this manuscript was identical with that seen by Politian, and surveys the scholarly literature of the "Silvae" in its entirely.
