discussion questions for after you read the aeneid!

when aeneas meets his mother, venus, outside of carthage, he complains to her that she is always ignoring him. can you relate to aeneas in this moment?

when aeneas and dido are separated from their hunting party and shelter from a storm in a cave, vergil paints the scene as a metaphorical marriage. would you have sex with aeneas in a cave? i mean he is pretty sexy. no pressure to say yes or anything but i would totally bang aeneas in the cave

the midway point of the aeneid features aeneas undergoing a metaphorical death by descending to the underworld. have you ever felt as if you’ve metaphorically died and gone to the underworld?

vergil describes aeneas as being the most beautiful among all the trojans. i don’t want you to discuss this, i just want you to know because it’s important to me

some people believe that aeneas and turnus are so similar that, when aeneas kills turnus, he is effectively killing himself. that fucks me up pretty hard. does that fuck you up? please say yes, i can’t handle this by myself

14.05.2025 // catching up with readings

love all the reading I've been doing lately. it is also exciting to see my library build up over the years, especially now that I can afford to buy some of the books I have wanted for years. recommendations from friends and acquaintances have also helped me expand my reading choices beyond my usual categories and genres. the tbr list keeps growing and it's a reason to live for.

Has anyone noticed that translating poetry is not easy

unsurprisingly seeing the odyssey last night made me want to reread the aeneid

#I am a Trojan girlie at heart #trying to pick out a random extra in the background of the fall of Troy to be Aeneas #but they kept dying :(#aeneid #Aeneas #the odyssey #Trojan war #fall of Troy #Odysseus #hector #Virgil #Homer

Summer!! Despite the heat I’m so happy to be here. I’m reading for my own enjoyment and at my own pace. I’m not rushing to be anywhere or do anything. I wish life could always be this sweet
