This is my first day of subscriber / first message.

I've been visiting Mantova- Piedole- Andes area two weeks ago, standing in 
Corte Virgiliana (very reccommendable place). Of course I am familiarize 
with the Conway-Rand  controversy. But I don't know (and I'd like) if this 
discussion has had a continuation afterwards.


Andes as Vegil's birthplace is fully accepted today?

Thanks


Daniel Martin

Absolutely not.  Anyone but Mandelbaum: I have caught him mistranslating the 
climactic scene of the compact of the kings (before the final battle) in a 
way that made no sense of the central issues of the poem.  Cecil Day-Lewis 
is both accurate and well composed.

Best translation for reading is West as recommended by the AP board
Best translation for reading if translating from Latin is Mendelbaum.

Virgil wasn't proud of the Aeneid because it wasn't perfect/finished.
Virgil was a true perfectionist.  The Georgics took him seven years to
finish (it reallyisn't all that long of a poem).

Hello,
My name is Erica Robinson and I am in the 10th grade.  I am doing research 
for a report in World History, the assignment was to research a famous 
midevil poet.  I came across Virgil Mantovano, the only problem is that there 
isnt verry much information on him.  I was wondering if you could send me 
either a website i could go to to find out about his life and his works, or 
just some facts about him.  Thank you. 
Thanks,

I've been told that the Aeneid, unlike other pieces of classical
literature, was preserved and popular during the middle ages and that the
reason for this was that some believed it foretold the coming of Christ.
But, Aeneas is shown only the future of Rome and great Romans.  Clearly,
the empire that Aeneas is told he shall begin is not associated with
Christianity, so why would readers think this?  Is it the somewhat
critical reflection on the morality of power and empire that make the
Aeneid a more Christian epic?

 While much epic energy may have been deflected away from the written

 at his best (he's very uneven, and has written some other books that are
 terribly infra dig) is one of them.  Also, what about 20th c. war novels

Re: VIRGIL: (no subject)

1999-05-03 Thread M W Hughes
I keep on thinking that the 'epic energy' of these days has been
transferred, for good or ill, to films.  There may be some point in
examining modern conceptions of political heroism in the Star Wars or
James Bond cycles.  Not that I can think of a modern fictional character,
depicted in any medium, who operates in a political world and really 
matches the complexity and humanity of Odysseus or Aeneas.  I think that
some such characters, heroes constantly in danger of becoming antiheroes,
do emerge in the film noir genre - and presumably in the underlying 'serie
noire' novels.  These stories tend to be full of political allegory but to
be set against an overtly unpolitical background of 'mean streets'.
Perhaps they are our version of minor epic, 'epyllion', able to explore
a flawed character who is not a political leader but belongs in the
ordinary world, like V's Aristaeus.  He (much less often she) is able to
visit extraordinary places, find some inner resources and have a chance of
doing some good. - Martin Hughes

 If it is epic that you are interested in look at any of the modern epic
 writers, from Tolkien to Eddings.  Look at the way that the common themes
 of the epic recur - the journey, the temptations to be overcome, the
 relationship with the gods or supernatural (reduced to a vague mysticism in
 some cases) the magic or holy artifacts - Virgil's shield, Bilbo' ring -
 and the culminating gathering of the forces of good and evil in a final
 battle. Poets are harder, and it depends on what you call modern - there's
 Tennyson's Morte d'Arthur, but thats C19th.

I am a Master's candidate and I would like to write my dissertation on the
Aeneid. Could someone suggest some themes of interest? I have no adviser as
yet. V. Iannini

PI'm afraid I posted this message twice, but I made three mistakes the first 
time I sent it: (1) it was adressed to the listowner (2) I used with my wife's 
account instead of my own (3) I only sent the message itself without greetings. 
I apologise for any inconvenience./P
PFor several years I have worked on Jacob of Maerlant's Middle Dutch 
adaptation of Virgil's Aeneid. Unfortunately I was never able to finish my 
work, 
but I still kept annbsp; interest in mediaeval as well as classical 
literature. 
One of the problems I was confronted with at the time, was the way in which the 
Middle Dutch author tried to reconcile the different versions of the Fall of 
Troy, i.e: did Aeneas betray his city or didn't he? This matter also involved 
the question if Virgil knew of any traditions regarding the Fall of Troy other 
than the one he followed. On several occasions Servius strongly suggests that 
Virgil was aware of the tradition according to which the Fall of Troy was 
caused 
not by the ruse with the wooden horse, but by treachery of Aeneas and Antenor 
(Commentaries on A. 1,242, 1,488, 1,647, 2,15). These are of course 
misinterpretations by Servius of some lines in the Aeneid, but is there in fact 
any evidence that this originally Greek tradition was known to Virgil or to any 
other Roman author of his time?/P

Gert,

You might want to look at
Fromm, Hans. Eneas der Verräter. In: Johannes Janota et al., Hgg.
Festschrift Walter Haug und Burghart Wachinger. Bd. 1. Tübingen:
Niemeyer, 1992: 139-163.

Fromm unravels the whole tradition, resp. the strings of conflicting
traditions, with ample footnotes. His target text is Heinrich von Veldeke's
Eneasroman, so he doesn't go quite as far as Jacob von Maerlant, but you
will find the entire classical corpus included.

Hi,
I'm from the UK, and I've just discovered your site. How about this for
discussion - How does Virgil view women in the Aeneid? I'd be interested to
know your opinions and thoughts!

  To Whom it May Concern:
  I am a high-school junior who, oddly enough, loves research.  I am 
currently doing some research on the linguistic similarities between 
Dante Alighieri's La Divina Commedia and Vergil's Aeneid, due to the 
fact that I study Latin and speak Italian.  I was wondering if anyone 
would happen to know of some very good, in-depth sites, in either 
Italian or English, that deal with the subjects of either.  I would 
appreciate a response if anyone could help me.  Thank you very much,
  Shannon Merlino
