(syllabus)
Title: Vergil’s Aeneid
Programme: the course will be devoted to a monographic analysis of Vergil's Aeneid, key text in Roman literary history as well as in Western culture: after an introduction on latin epics there will be an overview of Vergil's epic poem and an in-depth examination of ideological, structural and linguistic-stylistic features. The course aims to provide a critical knowledge of Vergil's epic poem, set in the context of the Augustan age and in its relationships with the Greek and Latin, not only epic, literary tradition. The goal will be pursued through reading and literary-philological analysis of a wide anthology of the poem.
