À propos de cet audio
In this episode, the Dead Language Ladies dissect arguably the most famous Latin epic, the Aeneid, written by Vergil in the 1st century BCE. Walking the line between propaganda and political critique, this poem tackles the complex themes of mortality in a tale of historical (fan)fiction, in which Vergil draws explicitly upon Homer's two major poems, the Odyssey and the Iliad, as well as Roman mythology, history, and their contemporary political landscape to weave together one of the greatest tapestries of storytelling that we still talk about today.
