Aeneid

Beschreibung

The Aeneid by the Roman poet Virgil (70 BC-19 BC) is a classic epic tale of Aeneas, a Trojan prince, about his adventurous journey and struggle to establish a new realm across the sea in Italy from the ashes of Troy. This epic by Virgil has depicted Aeneas as the embodiment of Roman virtues, a dutiful servant of fate and of the gods, an exemplary leader of the people, a devoted father and a son who had kept the interest of the country over his personal goals. The translation of this epic to Odia language by Professor Bairagi Charan Jena, has preserved the meaning and connotations of the original Latin poem of Virgil within the constraints of grammatical structure of Odia language. This book is intended for use by people with literary aptitudes, students and researchers.

Autor

Publius Vergilius Maro, known to us as Virgil (70 B.C.-19 B.C.), is best remembered for his masterpiece, The Aeneid, in which he represented the Emperor Augustus as a descendant of the half-divine Aeneas, a refugee from the fall of Troy and legendary founder of Rome. Virgil claimed on his deathbed that The Aeneid was unfinished and expressed a desire to have it burned, but it became the national epic of ancient Rome, a monument of Latin literature, and has been regarded as one of the great classics of Western literature ever since. Virgil's other works include the Eclogues and the Georgics, also considered masterpieces.
