Resumo
Virgils Aeneid invites its reader to identify with the Roman nation whose origins and destiny it celebrates. This work argues that the great Roman epic satisfies this identification only indirectly if at all. It offers fresh readings of such major episodes as the fall of Troy, the pageant of heroes in the underworld, and the death of Turnus.
