Summary: "Aeneidi" by Virgil is an epic poem written in the late 1st century BC. This monumental work tells the story of Aeneas, a Trojan hero and the son of Anchises and Venus, as he journeys from the ruins of Troy to eventually found Rome. The narrative explores themes of fate, duty, and the struggles against divine interference, making it a cornerstone of classical literature. The opening of "Aeneidi" introduces Aeneas's perilous journey as he flees the fallen city of Troy. The tale begins with the anger of Juno, who opposes Aeneas and seeks to thwart his path to Italy. Aeneas and his fellow Trojans are soon caught in a violent storm sent by Juno, but with the intervention of Neptune, the sea god, they find refuge on the North African coast. As Aeneas arrives at a place near Carthage, he encounters the kind and powerful Dido, queen of Carthage, setting the stage for future interactions that intertwine fate and personal desire.
