| Summary | "Eneida; v.1 de 2" by Virgil is an epic poem written in the 1st century BC. This foundational piece of Western literature recounts the journey of the Trojan hero Aeneas as he flees the fallen city of Troy and ultimately struggles to establish a new city in Italy. The narrative highlights themes of duty, destiny, and the founding of Rome, with Aeneas as the central character embodying these heroic ideals. The beginning of the work sets the stage for Aeneas's odyssey and introduces the wrath of the goddess Juno, who harbors a grudge against the Trojans. As Aeneas and his crew set sail from Sicily towards Italy, they are cast into a storm by Juno, emphasizing the obstacles he faces. The scene transitions to a moment of despair for Aeneas, who longs for death on the battlefield rather than suffering such trials at sea. This opening lays the groundwork for the epic's exploration of divine intervention, fate, and the heroic struggle against overwhelming odds. As Aeneas arrives on the shores of a foreign land, he encounters new challenges that will further develop his character and the narrative's themes. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
