  • Résumé

  • This is the first of our series on Virgil, which will run alongside our ongoing series on Homer. It is designed to help A Level students studying Latin or Classical Civilisation, but we hope it is also an accessible and interesting listen for anyone with an interest! In the episode we discuss the essential things to understand about the third great work of western civilisation: Virgil's Aeneid. It is the story of the Trojan survivors on their epic journey to found a new and powerful city: Rome. However, beneath the surface it is also an intensely political story about Rome's first emperor Augustus, the sphinx-like winner of terrible civil wars.
