The introduction provides an overview of the Fasti, including its structure, themes, and historical context. The notes offer explanations of difficult words and phrases, as well as historical and cultural references. The excursus are longer essays that explore specific topics related to the Fasti, such as the role of religion in ancient Rome, the significance of the calendar, and the symbolism of certain animals.
