>Could you please inform me of some references that would confirm this >postulate? To begin with, read the article on Virgil in the Oxford Companion to English Literature. Then follow that up by reading Colin Burrows' chapter, "Virgils, from Dante to Milton", in The Cambridge Companion to Virgil, edited by Charles Martindale (1997), pp. 79-90, which has a list of recommended "Further Reading" at the end.
