More about the book
Focusing on the epic journey of Aeneas, a Trojan Prince, this poem intertwines themes of adventure, war, and love while exploring the foundations of the Roman Empire. As Aeneas travels to Italy post-Troy, Virgil reflects on the political climate of Rome under Augustus, contrasting the restored order with the lost freedoms of the Republic. This narrative serves as a historical commentary on the debate between imperialism and republicanism, making it a significant work in understanding Rome's evolution. The edition features a translation by John Dryden and an introduction by Harry Burton.
