About a month ago a gentleman from Oxford commented on Dido's mention of
impia facta as possibly referring to Aeneas' treason?
Would the Oxford gentleman kindly elaborate on " " " "
I can't think of any such instance, nor can I imagine that Vergil would
want the Roman reader to regard him as guilty of treason, something
very contrary to his main character quality, pietas. Laomedon, an
ancestor of Aeneas, certainly had a very untrustworthy character. His record
with Hercules, etc. indicates it clearly.
