Vergil's Aeneid: Hero War Humanity

One of the pillars of Western literary tradition, VergilÆs Aeneid is also a terrific read: the story of a man whose city is destroyed in war, and of his journey to find his place in destiny. This epic has it all: adventures on the high seas, passion, battles, monsters, magic, meddling gods, and struggles that test the moral fiber of both men and women.
