Hey all.. i'm new here... i'm an 18 yr old high school student currently taking Latin. I've been interested in Ancient Rome and Greece for most of my life... I'm currently studying book 6 of the Aeneid in Latin... i know the guidelines for the list prohibits popping in and just asking for information, but i don't plan on doing that. The project is due a long while from now, and i *do* plan on doing 90% of this research myself, but would enjoy discussing some aspects of it. One question I do have... when Vergil wrote the Aeneid, did he mean it as a work of fiction, or at this time did the general populace of Rome believe in this story, like the Odyssey or Iliad? thanks! ren
