A pastoral place, atmosphere, or idea is characteristic of peaceful country life and scenery. a tranquil pastoral scene. = rustic. Literary work dealing in a usually artificial manner with shepherds or rural life, typically contrasting the innocence and serenity of the simple life with the misery and corruption of city or court life.
