Description
Write on one of the following topics:
Topic 1:
What are the major conflicts in The Aeneid? Go beyond just Dido and Aeneas, Greeks and Trojans, to consider other less obvious ones. What types of conflicts (physical, moral, intellectual, or internal) can you detect? Describe the conflict(s), and resolution if there is one, in detail with multiple references to the text in your response.
Topic 2:
Compare carefully the opening lines of The Iliad, The Odyssey, and The Aeneid. How does the opening of Virgil's poem set itself apart from those earlier openings of Homer, which most of his readers could repeat by heart? How is Virgil’s introduction both alike and different from Homer’s? Especially, how does the opening of Virgil’s poem sound out themes that are unique to Roman culture, its historical role, and its age? Use multiple details, examples, quotations in your response.
- Response on the Week 4 message board

fight, and evenhandedly so: he has every one of the components of a saint. What recognizes
Turnus from Aeneas, other than his unmitigated fierceness in the fight, is his tenacity. He tries to
cut out his own comprehension of history with his expectation of his own prosperity, in light of
the occasions of the Trojan past, as told in Homer's Iliad. In spite of the fact that Turnus may
appear to us a Latin form of Achilles, the seething legend of the Iliad, Turnus' forces as a warrior

Turnus, a result Turnus declines to acknowledge. Turnus' elucidation of signs and signs is also
resolute. He translates them further bolstering his own good fortune instead of looking for their
