For two thousand years, the epic tale of Aeneas' dramatic flight from Troy, his doomed love affair with Dido, his descent into the underworld, and the bloody story behind the establishment of Rome has electrified audiences around the world. In Vergil's telling, Aeneas' heroic journey not only gave Romans and Italians a thrilling origin story, it established many of the fundamental themes that shape human existence -- the role of duty and self-sacrifice, the place of love and passion in human life, the relationship between art and violence, the tension between immigrant and indigenous people, and the way new foundations are so often built upon the wreckage of those who came before --Inside jacket. 546 $a Translated from the Latin. 600 00 $a Aeneas $c (Legendary character) $v Poetry. 650 0 $a Voyages to the otherworld $v Poetry. 650 0 $a Epic poetry, Latin. 650 0 $a Legends $z Rome. 655 7 $a Epic poetry. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Legends. $2 lcgft 700 02 $a Virgil. $t Aeneis. 700 1 $a Bartsch, Shadi, $d 1966- $e translator. 941 $a 5 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240305042411.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010023511.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20211102013501.0 952 $l HPPD845 $d 20210427011224.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20210421010040.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D34FEAA6A26611EB9FC04FF33CECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
