Virgil and the Augustan Reception
Thomas, Richard F. (Harvard University, Massachusetts)
Richard Thomas examines the ideological reception of Virgil at specific moments in the last two millennia. It looks at different 'encounters' with Virgil's Aeneid and ends with an examination of the ways successive ages have tried to make the Aeneid conform to their upbeat expectations of this poet.
