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. 1907 edition. Excerpt: ...by the sudden resolution of Aeneas to depart for Italy. This turn of fortune may be regarded as an example of Aristotle's ne pin er not, but Virgil has not chosen to treat it in the usual way. The true nepmkreia is accompanied by a surprise, as in the case of Oedipus, who thought to find comfort by investigating the secret of his birth, and found ruin instead. A good example in English is the Merchant of Venice, where Shy lock laid a, scheme to get revenge which nearly proved his own undoing. In Virgil, however, there is not only no effort to secure a surprise, but this is carefully guarded against, both for Dido and the reader. From the moment of the arrival of Ascanius she is the " infpliy Vfiftn&c(T(tf( t.n piiti in Hays to ppmp'" She drank too deep of love evertobe happy. The course ftf hftf pgggn was"TorvMeiilr and, as Wtt expect in tragedy, t.Wo wa tp munh of madness in it ever to let us foresee a happy issue.

It does not belong to an erotic plot of this kind to plan a surprise. The interest of the story lies in the heart of the heroine, in the struggle against love, but still more in the anguish of desertion as is seen in both the Ariadne and in the Dido episodes. The proper effect is that which St. Augustine felt in reading the fourth book; he tells us that he wept over " poor Dido, who killed herself for love,"2 and this is an effect that is best attained by a gradual approach. It is, of course, possible to elicit pity and tears without...

Excerpt from The Dido Episode in the Aeneid of Virgil Episode: A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Literature in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Latins In Homer there is little enough upon the subject of love. Behind the poem lies the abduction of Helen, but it is as completely left out of the story as the adultery of Clytemnestra from the tragedy of Agamemnon. The great names in Homer belong to the good women, Penelope and Andromache. The adultery of Mars and Venus, detected and published to all the gods by Vulcan, suggests the only form of erotic story that the oldest literature allowed, the amours of the gods. Of these the earliest literary treatment, so far as we now know, was the love of Venus and Anchises which is described with some detail in the Homeric hymn to Aphrodite. Still more famous was the marriage of Peleus and Thetis, which was in later days a subject much favored by the poets. Most notorious of all were the amours of Zeus. The story of Europa runs through the whole literature, and was even made by Stesichorus the subject of a dithyramb, which was properly confined to episodes in the life of the god Dionysus. Scarcely less popular was the story of Dana'e, still extant in a fragment of Simonides. In general, the serious efforts of the earlier poetry were directed to the divine and heroic world almost to the exclusion of ordinary men. To the gods and heroes was accorded a moral license and a freedom of conduct that gave room for the wildest adventures, and the added advantage of the super natural was a charm to which the world in those days was especially susceptible. Not yet did human affairs seem worthy of the epic poet, but a change was coming that ended in bringing poetry, like philosophy, down from heaven to earth.
