<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>I was wondering about what thoughts people had
about Aeneas' actions in Book X. This was the book in which the Latins
have surronded the Trojan encampment and have held them in seige when Aeneas
arrives after creating the alliance with the other Evander's people.
Aeneas marches in with Pallas and his army and basicly begin a slaughter. Yes
this is an act of war, but through out the Aeneid, the hero has always had a
deep regard for life, yet here he ignores it, murdering people as they beg for
mercy. Possibly it is just the fact that they are enemies which he
slaughters, but I was wondering if there was any further thought into
this.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2></FONT><FONT size=2>(also slightly off topic,
this duality seems to be a nature that Shakespeare picks up in Macbeth if
anyone
is intrested in discussion about it.)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2></FONT> </DIV>

Hey,
hahah this is exactly the kind of email we're supposed to ignore,
but I can't help ignoring this one cause it made me crack up! Um, I'm
just a senior in high school (I'm in Latin 5 and I'm also taking
Greek) but I've translated only Books 1,2, and we're on 4. Well I
think that you should like ask some of the older, more knowlegeable
people. Or someone better-versed in this sort of thing... And do
some research in the library, damnit! hahah good luck!
