The Aeneid by Virgil

The Aeneid by Virgil

Troy has fallen. Aeneas carries his father out of the burning city and sails west with the survivors, under instructions from the gods to found a city that will one day rule the world.

Virgil wrote it for Augustus and it is not simply propaganda: the first half gives Dido, the Carthaginian queen Aeneas abandons on divine orders, the most sympathetic voice in the poem, and the final lines end on an act of rage rather than triumph. Shadi Bartsch's translation is fast, modern and metrically alive.

The central epic of Latin literature, in one of the best recent English translations.
