Virgil's Aeneid: Bk 4 Pt. 1

from Alexander Schmid Podcast Hosted by Alexander Schmid

In this lecture, I discuss (a) Dido's heated passion and its relation to fire-imagery, (b) the connection between fire-imagery and rage and lust, and how the burning of Troy is in some way relating to the burning lust of Paris and Helen, and (c) discuss the plot of Juno and Venus to "marry" Dido and Aeneas and its immediate aftermath.
