Synopsis "Virgil'S Aeneid: A Study Guide (in English)"
Virgil's Aeneid: A Study Guide will assist you in your studies of Virgil's Aeneid for A Level examinations in Classical Civilisation or equivalents. Written in the epic style, the Aeneid was (and still is) inevitably compared to Homer's Iliad and Odyssey. Virgil's Aeneid is a Latin epic poem that, although inspired by the epic poetry of Homer, was a poem written very much for his own time and in order to celebrate the greatness of Rome. The Aeneid is an account in twelve books of the travels and toils of the Trojan hero, Aeneas. The Aeneid covers Aeneas' escape from Troy at the end of the Trojan War, his wanderings and efforts to find a new home for his people and his battles in Italy in order to found a new home for the survivors of the Trojan War. The Study Guide explores the Aeneid over seven parts;-PART ONE: Introduction to the Aeneid-PART TWO: Historical context of the Aeneid-PART THREE: Books One to Three of the Aeneid-PART FOUR: Books Four to Six of the Aeneid-PART FIVE: Books Seven to Nine of the Aeneid-PART SIX: Books Ten to Twelve of the Aeneid-PART SEVEN: Further analysis of the AeneidRelated themes are analysed such as; -Characterisation-Intertextuality with Homer's poems and other ancient literature-language stylistic techniques-mythical and historical links -integrated glossaries and terminologyThis Study Guide also includes many tasks and activities that are designed to promote greater understanding of the Aeneid and issues relating to it.Virgil's Aeneid: A Study Guide will help to lay a sound foundation for those who go on to study the Ancient World at a higher (degree) level as well as appeal to those who are interested in learning more about the ancient world generally and in particular, the epic poetry of Virgil.
