someone on the radio today playing a Stone Age bone whistle and it made a

This one isn't quite so obscure. I believe that the i spelling
came to be in
the 5th century AD (http://www.bartleby.com/65/ve/Vergil.html),
when the Aeneid
was used as a sort of magic 8-ball. People would randomly open
the Aeneid and
interpret the first line upon which their eyes

There may be a clue here, though probably just coincidence. Cézanne was a
great enthusiast for Delcroix and the latter painted Dante and Virgil in
Hell, the former in a red cloak and Virgil in a blue one.

Dear Manzer

accessible way, on TV and radio programmes, plus, of course, the
amazing access to resources that the Internet has allowed.

This discussion seems to be everywhere, also here in Germany.
Some standards are so clear, that they might be out of discussion:
In classical period (Cicero-time)
c was always spoken as guttural explosive (in Germany: k)
- absolutely
phrase 'lumen
purpureum' signifying 'the light of love'.
Can anyone tell where in Virgil this comes from and whether it was a
general Roman expression, or one coined by V?
And why was the 'light of love' thought to be purple?

I am generally in favour of looking at ancient literature
with modern
methods: at least there is some useful terminology. I read
an article
recently
the Aeneid. The fact
that I remember this after 50 years is a testament to his teaching
ability, but I still do not understand why he found it so fascinating
and powerful. Can anyone enlighten me ('nox deruit' as one might
say?)

unintelligeable to a Roman of the 1st century BC.
Is there a generally accepted view of the way the language might have
been spoken by Virgil? And is this recorded anywhere?
