Summary

"Aeneidi" by Virgil is an epic poem written between 29 and 19 BC. This Latin masterpiece follows Aeneas, a Trojan hero who flees the ruins of Troy to journey across the Mediterranean toward Italy. There, he must establish a new homeland and fulfill his destiny as the ancestor of the Romans. The poem weaves wandering adventures with fierce warfare, creating a founding myth that connects Rome to the legends of Troy while glorifying traditional Roman virtues and legitimizing imperial lineage.
