Aeneid, prose translation

Virgil

The Aeneid is a Latin epic poem by Virgil, written in the 1st century BC, which narrates the journey of Aeneas, a Trojan prince, as he flees the ruins of Troy to establish a new homeland in Italy. The poem consists of twelve books, with the first six detailing Aeneas' wanderings and the latter half focusing on the Trojans' war against the Latins. This version features a prose translation by J.W. MacKail, making the classic text accessible to modern readers. The Aeneid is notable for its foundational role in Roman literature and its exploration of themes such as duty, fate, and the struggle for identity.
