VIRGIL: Aeneas' Character

[Zara Hayat]

Do you agree that Aeneas is "a brave but bewildered man, suffering often through his own fault"?

I think this is a fairly accurate assessment of him and is seen especially in the section on Creusa and his desperate search for her after she has disappeared. If he had not had told her to follow from behind, the chances are she would not have gone missing.
