The Aeneid || with Error-free Solutions.
Based on the first few lines of the text, what will be some of the main themes of the poem?
correct answers War, the gods, loss, redemption

In your own words, what does Vergil ask of the muse? correct answers What did a man (later
revealed to be Aeneas) do to make Juno so angry?

What are the reasons for Juno's hatred of the Trojans? correct answers There were rumors that
the Trojan's descendants would one day overthrow Carthage, Juno's favorite city. She had fought
against the Trojans before. The "judgement of Paris" insulted her beauty.

What elements of nature are personified in Aeolia? correct answers Storms, the winds

What quid pro quo exchange is arranged between Juno and Aeolus? correct answers If Aeolus
destroys the Trojan's fleet with the winds, Juno will give him the hand of Deiopea, a sea nymph,
in marriage

What is your first impression of Aeneas, when he is introduced in the midst of the storm?
Provide details from the text to explain your answer. Many people find the introduction of
Aeneas to be ironic: why? correct answers The first impression of Aeneas is that he is a coward,
as his limbs were "limp in the chill of fear" during the storm. The introduction to Aeneas is
ironic, as he is reminiscing about a past battle in Troy, and wishing he died there heroically
instead of in a storm.

How does the description of Neptune contrast with the storm? How too does it contrast with the
description given earlier of Juno? correct answers Neptune is portrayed as a calm and benevolent
god. This contrasts the raging storm and the wrath of Juno. He does not want a storm over his
territory: the ocean.

What is Aeneas trying to convey in his speech to the surviving Trojans after the storm? How
does Aeneas personally feel? correct answers The tone of Aeneas's speech is one of valor and
hope. However, deep inside, Aeneas is sick with pain and anguish.

How is Venus portrayed? How is Jupiter portrayed? What gender bias might be evident in these
and other portrayals? correct answers Venus is portrayed as someone benevolent, but harps on
their emotions more than they probably should. While Jupiter isn't portrayed as "harsh" by any
means, his actions have thought and purpose behind them. This suggests the gender bias of men
being more capable and thoughtful than women.

Identify three historical allusions/references to things that will happen made in Jupiter's prophecy
to Venus. correct answers Founding of Rome, Julius Caesar, Achilles

What disguise does Venus take when she talks with Aeneas? How does Aeneas greet her?
correct answers Venus is disguised as a young huntress. Aeneas instantly recognizes that she's a
goddess in disguise.
