THE AENEID AS AN EPIC,
DRAMATIC AND LYRIC POEM
Essay by Alias Elizabeth Hocker,
Graduating Class, 1920, Ocala
High School
"Homere a fait Virgile, dit on; si
ceia est, e'est sans dout son plus bel
onvrage." Voltaire.
It is as an epic poem of national
glory and heroic action that the
Aeneid is most estemed. Although
the Aeneid may not; be of as perfect
execution as the Georgics neverthe nevertheless
less nevertheless it is a work of higher inspira inspiration.

scale and executed with strong work workmanship.
manship. workmanship. At first it sterns as tho the story
of Romulus would have been chosen
as one more appealing and firmly
rooted in the popular mind. But then
Virgil may be justified in the choice
of this legend as one more adapted
to his genius and the purpose of his
poem. It was the only subject of
national significance connected with
lic Homeric stories. Then too, the
characters and events of the Trojan
war were especially familiar to the
Romans. His plan enabled him to
embrace the dim traditions connected
with the origin of the famous towns
and of several of the great Roman
' families.
As the Aeneid is a poem inspired
by national sentiment, Virgil strives
thruout the whole to show how the
divine rulers planned the founding of
Rome and again and again assured the
Trojans of their future power and
fame. He appealed to the sentiments
of the Romans with even more power
by tracing their divine descent and
the origin of many of their ancient
customs and ceremonies.
The imperial and religious ideas of
Rome find their fullest realization in
the emperor. In endowing Augustus
with antiquity and divine ancestry he
further deified him to his country countrymen.
men. countrymen. The personal figure of the em emperor
peror emperor is by him encircled with a halo
of military glory, of beneficient ac action,
tion, action, divine sanction and a heritage of
divine honors.
It seems that the two chief objects
of the poem were that of raising a
monument to the glory of Rome and
Augustus, and that of writing an epic
to reproduce some image of the man manners
ners manners and life of the heroic age. The
Aeneid is first to be considered as an
epic of the Roman Empire. The firm
conviction of the Romans in their
superiority over all other nations as asserted
serted asserted itself most prominently in the
poetry of the Augustan age.
v Many times thruout his poem, Vir Virgil

world-wide dominion to the Romans.
He foretells their greatness, the pro protection

prophecy of the Julian line of em emperors.
perors. emperors. In several places it is not
merely the pride of conquest which
is expressed but the higher belief that
the mission of Rome is to give law
and place to the world. By this, Vir Virgil

conqueror and civilizer but the trans transmitter

In no nation was so great pride
felt in their ancestry as in Rome. By
his Aeneid Virgil causes them to feel
themselves special objects of care to
Jove and other gods. Many times
Virgil was enabled to connect various
impressive ceremonies of his time
with the associations of the past.
The confidence which the Romans
felt in their superiority over other
nations was closely connected with
their religious feeling and belief. It
was Virgil's aim in the Aeneid to
show that this Roman Empire was no
mere work of human hands, but had
been built up by divine purpose and
guidance. The Aeneid expresses the

Headquarters of the Republican Na
tional Committee May be Shift Shifted
ed Shifted to Chicago
(Associated Press)
Chicago, June 15. Chairman Hays,
after completing conferences with the
western leaders of the republican na
tional committee, today left for his
heme in Indiana, from where he will
go to Washington to meet Senator
Harding, the nominee. It was em
phasized by western leaders that the
territory west of the Mississippi river
will be the big battleground of the
presidential election. Some leaders
advocate the establishing of republi republican

of New York.
A GOOD REASON
. A few days ago, the Gainesville
road alongside the Meffert lime works
near Zuber was suddenly curved over
to the right, away from the deep
crater made by the limepit., As there
has been a good deal of adverse crit criticism
icism criticism regarding the matter, the Star
investigated and found: That it is the
intention of the road engineers to run
the road right thru the pit instead of
around the rim. Consequently they
have turned the road temporarily out
into the woods until the necessary cur
can be made. In the meantime, Mr.
Meeffrt is digging out the rock in the
east side of the pit, partly to help the
engineers and partly because he can't
afford to lose the lime. When the road
is finished it will be very much better,
doing away with a dangerous place as
well as lowering a steep grade. There
will be a good many turnouts in the
woods before the road can be finished
thru our county, but there is no other
way to do the work.

Thruout the whole story this idea
determines the general conduct of
action. The actors either oppose the
fates and suffer defeat or perish; or,
with increasing knowledge and piety
they become instruments of the gods.
In seeking to enhance the great greatness
ness greatness of Augustus by associating him
with the actions of his legendary
ancestry, Virgil seeks to establish a
closer connection between the past
and present. The glory announced in
the prophecy is that of the establish establishment

peace as the completion of his war warlike

is promised by Jove divine honors and
the function of answering prayer.
In so far as there is any conflict
between the right and wrong in the
Aeneid, that which pleases' the gods
is right, and that which meets with
their disfavor is indisputably wrong.
This blind compliance to the will of
the gods is personified by Virgil in
the character of a pious heroine, Dido,
one of the actors in the poem who
moves our' sympathies, is one who
perished in resistance to the decrees
of the fates.
The conclusion at which we arrive
as to the value of the Aeneid as an
epic poem representative of the
Roman Empire is that Virgil has
given a true, adequate and noble ex expression

does not touch the heart or enlighten
the conscience and this is an impor important

the Aeneid may have to the highest
rank as a work of art.
The national, religious and political
ideas which form the central interest
of the poem have been discussed, it
remains to be considered how far the
poem commands our sympathies; and
what value it has as a poem of action
unfolding a spectacle of human life,
manners, character and passion.
The whole poem is written on a
grand scale. There could be found no
scene deserving more attention than
that of the fall of Troy and the build building
ing building of Cathage and Rome. The actors
who play their parts in these critical
events are by no means common or
insignificant. Aeneas, the hero, the
son of a mighty goddess, is brave in
war, especially dear to the gods and
pious above all others.
Virgil was remarkably prepared
for his task. His story shows the
most intimate familiarity with the
incidents contained in Homer's Illiad,
Odyssey and Hymns as well as with
the Alexandrine epic. Virgil was the

People say Harding has no chance
because of precedent. It seems that
no United States senator has ever
been elected president. If precedent
had anything to do with it, Wood
would have been nominated with a
whoop. He is a soldier, and Wash Washington,

been elected in Florida from governor
to senator, and just see what Trani Trani-mdl

making a back number of Gov. Catts,

arguing about which one of them had

done so much for them to denounce
him for, they could not have defeated
him. He furnished material for the
bonfire; all they had to do was to
keep it blazing.
It's the Star's opinion that the
Tt:inpa Times did more than any
other par-er to defeat Catts. Without
abusing him, and saying good things
about him whenever he gave it a right
to, it kept up against him a steady
pressure based on the obvious fact
that he was not fitted for the office.
The policy was also pursued by this
paper and its local contemporary, the
St. Petersburg papers, the Lakeland
Telegram, Miami Herald, St. Augus Augustine
tine Augustine Record, Gainesville Sun and sev several
eral several others.
The Times-Union fired some solid
.-hot at the enemy, but not until he
alieady had his upper works shot
away and several holes near the wa wa-terline
terline wa-terline from the steady fire of the
smaller papers. The Tampa Tribune
opened a tremendous cannonade about
a year ago, but people couldn't help
lemembering that up to that time it
had repeatedly declared that Catts
was the best governor Florida ever
had.
We did our share we opposed
Catts. from the beginning because we
knew that a man who talked as he did
wasn't competent to fill any office in
the gift of the people, and when our
readers came to know Catts better
they agreed with us, and together, the
people and the Star, have helped to
pull Catts down .and cover him up,
and now we will go on to the next job.

THE AENEID AS AN EPIC,

qualm of conscience, but it is true
that whatever he touched he adorned.
When he was charged with usin
Homer's similes as if they were his
own, he merely replied, "Only the
stiong can wield the club of Her Hercules."
cules." Hercules." The part which divine personages
take in the Aeneid is very important.
Aitho they do not seem as active as
those pictured by Homer nevertheless i
they are interested in a more stately
and dignified manner. The favoritism
ot the various gods is traced back to
their origin and the divine protection
of the founder of Rome is well shown.
Still more ancient was the Roman's
worship of their dead and their belief
in their reappearance. In the Aeneid
we find the clearest indications of this
form of belief. The whole of the
sixth book is inspired by the feeling
of the greater spiritual life of man
beyond the grave. The conceptions
of this book entitle Virgil to take his
place among the great religious
teachers of the world. 4
To be a true epic a poem must es essentially
sentially essentially contain, besides the things
aiieady mentioned, a faithful repre representation

V'rgil's characters we recognize the
influence of refined traditions and

The customs are carefully portrayed
and the reader is initiated into the
rr-ligious, social and political life of

Altho the Aeneid is essentially an
epic, no thorough appreciation can be
written omitting its qualities as a
diamatic and lyric poem. The de description

is graphically portrayed the grandeur
ot the armies, the heroism of the
leaders and the tenseness of the situ

The human interest in this narra narrative

more absorbing or vital story ever
written. The action is skillfully sus sustained
tained sustained thruout; the contrasts are
vivid and convincing and the climaxes
and anticlimaxes areattained by a
master's touch. Thus, after the
thrilling description of the fall of
Tioy, the action suddenly changes,
and Aeneas weary, discouraged,
broken-hearted, bids farewell to the
scenes of his former grandeur and de departs
parts departs for the mountains.
The conception and delineation of
Dido's passion is powerful. Virgil is
much better at conceiving a state of
feeling, some pathetic or passionate
scene rather than creating and sus sustaining
taining sustaining the development of living
characters. Truly it may be said that
Dido is Virgil's only original charac character,

one of the great heroines of poetry.
The most tragic element in the de development

the struggle which her love has with
her sense of fidenity to her dead hus husband.
band. husband. The first feeling awakened in
her mind was compassion for Aeneas
and a desire to share her fortune with
his weary followers. This conpassion
rapidly deepens into love, which is
but a step' to an absorbing and fatal
passion that leads to insanity.
Restless visions in the night, the
memory of ancient prophecies, and
the voice of her former husband call
ing confirm her in her resolution to
die. Virgil's art reaches its sublim sublim-est
est sublim-est elevation in the description of her
self-inflicted death, when on her fun funeral
eral funeral pyre she invokes a dire curse
against Aeneas and all his race.
"I shall die unavenged," she says,
"still let me die it is thus, thus, I
fain would pass into the shades; may
the cruel Trojan drink in with his
eyes the sight of this fire from the
e'eep, and carry along with him the
omen of my death."
Virgil had a strong sense of com compassion

for tho Dido met her death breathing
bitter denunciations, he sends Iris to
cut a lock of her hair and free her

Considering Virgil as a lyric poet
it is hard to determine what more of
elegance, of compact structure or of
varied harmony Virgil might have im imparted
parted imparted to his rythm had he lived to
devote more time to the revisal of his
work. In a long narrative poem the
perfect rhythmical smoothness that
characterizes the Georgics is hardly
to be expected.
English readers may hold that the
Aeneid is inferior in majesty to Mil-
, ton but it is easier and less cumber-
j some. It also flows in a more varied
and self-sustained stream than the

MAKING OFFICERS
FOR THE NAVY
As a part of their training to be become
come become officers in the United States
navy, the midshipmen from the Naval
Academy at Annapolis participate in
a cruise lasting three months. Every
year a different cruise is mapped out
and different ports are visited. By
the time the four years course at the
Academy is finished a "middy" grad graduate
uate graduate has generally traveled over a
good portion of the globe.
It is customary to assemble four or
more battleships for this duty. Each
ship is manned by a skeleton crew of
enlisted men and the midshipmen de detailed
tailed detailed fill out the complement requir required
ed required to operate the ship properly.
The midshipmen on board these
vessels perform the same work as the
enlisted men; they are detailed as gun
crews, firemen, enginemen, electric electricians'
ians' electricians' helpers, quartermasters and
helmsmen, and they sleep in ham hammocks
mocks hammocks and eat the same food as the
enlisted men. They coal ship and at
the end of the cruise they indulge in
target practice, each individual ship
competing against the others. This
extensive training enables the future
officers of our navy to better under understand
stand understand the viewpoint of the enlisted
men, to care for his needs and com comforts

actually command enlisted men, they
can see matters from the enlisted
man's side as well as that of the officer.

These men are selected because of
their natural aptitude on board ship.
They are then sent to a preparatory

they are prepared for the final exam examinations.

taken recently at San Francisco, of
enlisted men preparing for the Naval
Academy. Many of them are now at
Annapolis.
This year the midshipmen left An Annapolis
napolis Annapolis June 5th, and will arrive at
Colon about the 15th, thence through
the Panama canal. After a brief visit
in Panama City the "middies" will set
sail for Honolulu and arrive there
July 3rd. About eight days will be
spent viewing the interesting sights
around the islands. They will then
visit Seattle, San Franoisco and San
Pedro, where they will have ample
opportunity to see the large Pacific
coast cities.
The return to the Academy will be
through the Panama canal and the
"middies" are scheduled to be at An Annapolis
napolis Annapolis by Sept. 1st, at which time
they will depart on their 30 days
leave of absence. The cruise this year
is reckoned as one of the best ever
taken by the "middies."
