I am just about to begin Book II of the Aeneid with my seniors and I am never comfortable with Aeneas describing the death of Polites and Priam, at the hands of Pyrrhus: what is his (Aeneas') vantage point supposed to be during these murders, i.e. how can he see everything yet be powerless to intervene? I would appreciate any input on this issue.
