Thank you for your request of 9 June, and I apologize for answering so slowly. I tend to neglect my e-mail now that school is out, but we have extended hours in the lab now, so I hope to keep current in the future. I don't know of any Aeneid in prose. I was going to say Mandelbaum's, but forgot that his is a verse translation. I hope you find something, too, as I should give it a whirl. It may be fascinating in prose. I've noticed with the Divine Comedy of Dante, that I dislike Terza rima in english, although Ciardi's and Porter's still rule. Let me know what you come up with, and thanks for writing. It thrills me to discover that people care about Virgil! I've long wondered what was wrong with me for reading these guys our schools neglect. Used to be, we all had to read Homer, Virgil and Milton in school.
