To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But Lucan, in his own person, has no feeling at all for the idealising of the Empire, or for Caesar as its representative. He hates the Empire, and though he cannot restrain a certain admiration for the firmness and rapidity of Caesar's dauntless advance to his goal, yet he uniformly represents it as a kind of daemonic energy that worked with baleful force against all better influences ; and it can hardly be denied that whereas Lucan in no way affects Dante's estimate of the mission of Rome, he... does very notably affect his representations of Caesar. Dante borrows Pharsalia ii. 387 sq. (where Henry Fielding — in Amelia — and Lord Macaulay are surely right, as against the grammarians, in taking the dative in urbi fater est not as fro genitivo, but as the dative of *' interest " or " advantage "). DANTE AND THE LATIN POETS 183 more than one touch from Lucan in his personal references to Caesar, and the result is an absence of warmth in them, to say the least, which we should hardly have anticipated.
