"The Aeneid" by Virgil is an epic poem written during the late 1st century BC. The book centers on the journey of Aeneas, a Trojan hero, as he seeks to fulfill his destiny of founding a new city in Italy after the fall of Troy. The poem explores themes of fate, duty, and divine intervention, portraying Aeneas's struggles against various forces, both mortal and divine, as he navigates his way through numerous challenges and hardships. The opening of "The Aeneid" introduces us to the plight of Aeneas and the remaining Trojans after they are shipwrecked due to a storm conjured by Juno, the queen of the gods. After enduring years of wandering and misfortune, Aeneas arrives in Carthage, where he encounters the land's queen, Dido. The goddess Venus disguises herself to aid Aeneas, revealing the depth of his trials and his noble spirit. As Aeneas recounts the tragic downfall of Troy, he prepares to share his adventures with Dido, setting the stage for future events that intertwine love, loyalty, and the weight of destiny.
