โฆ Synopsis
Aeneas flees the ashes of Troy to found the city of Rome and change forever the course of the Western world -- and literature as well. Virgil's Aeneid is as eternal as Rome itself, a sweeping epic of arms and heroism -- the searching portrait of a man caught between love and duty, human feeling and the force of fate -- that has influenced writers for over 2,000 years. Filled with drama, passion, and the universal pathos that only a masterpiece can express. The Aeneid is a book for all the time and all people.
