Book Description
Love and tragedy dominate book four of Virgil's most powerful work, building on the violent emotions invoked by the storms, battles, warring gods, and monster-plagued wanderings of the epic's opening. Destined to be the founder of Roman culture, Aeneas, nudged by the gods, decides to leave his beloved Dido, causing her suicide in pursuit of his historical destiny. A dark plot, in which erotic passion culminates in sex, and sex leads to tragedy and death in the human realm, unfolds within the larger horizon of a supernatural sphere, dominated by power-conscious divinities. Dido is Aeneas' most significant other, and in their encounter Virgil explores timeless themes of love and loyalty, fate and fortune, the justice of the gods, imperial ambition and its victims, and ethnic differences. This course book offers a portion of the original Latin text, study questions, a commentary, and interpretative essays. Designed to stretch and stimulate readers, Ingo Gildenhard's incisive commentary will be of particular interest to students of Latin at both A2 and undergraduate level. It extends beyond detailed linguistic analysis to encourage critical engagement with Virgil's poetry and discussion of the most recent scholarly thought.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1876 edition. Excerpt: ...For form, seeX. P. p. 12a 79 dirimamus 'Decide.' Dirimo is for disimo, as diribeo for dishibco. 80 Lavinla coniunz 'Lavinia's hand.' 81-112 Turnus and Aeneas both prepare for the coming contest. 81 rapidus Adjective for adverb. This use is rare in poetry except with adjectives of time, as matutinus, and is confined in prose to a few words like invitus. 82 ante ora 'Before him.' 83 decus In apposition to ouos, = qui decus essent, 'to grace his stalls.' Orithyla The daughter of Erechtheus king of Athens, whence, as the myth is told in the Phaedrus of Plato, Boreas carried her off to Thrace. We must not inquire too curiously how a Thracian queen can have given the steeds to Pilumnus, a local deity of Italy, the great-grandfather of Turnus (quartus aims, x. 619). 84 qui candore, etc. A translation from //. x. 437, Xeiwc6re/ot x'os, 6eiev, S' i.viy.oiai.v bfiowi. qui anteirent is a consecutive sentence, 'so swift that they outstripped, ' or perhaps it may be explained as virtually oblique; we are not told of the quality of the horses as a fact, but as the opinion of the giver. To turn it into oratio recta the sentence would run, 'I give you these horses which will grace your stalls, seeing they are as swift, ' etc. For decus, see on xL 7. 85 lacessunt 'Pat.' Lacessere is from lacere, to move (obsolete, except in compounds, as allicere); for meaning compare pugnam lacessunt, v. 429, with the common phrase bella movere. Cf.

Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
These books are intended to make Virgil's Latin accessible even to those with a fairly rudimentary knowledge of the language. There is a departure here from the format of the electronic books, with short sections generally being presented on single, or double, pages and endnotes entirely avoided. A limited number of additional footnotes is included, but only what is felt necessary for a basic understanding of the story and the grammar. Some more detailed footnotes have been taken from Conington's edition of the Aeneid.
