Virgil's poem is an intricate work of literature, incorporating Greek and italic myths, legends, and folklore. A key theme of the poem is the tension between duty (piety) on the one hand, and anger (violence, rage) on the other. More specifically, Virgil asks us whether the end justifies the means. Human suffering in the short term is worth the establishment of peace and order in the long term? https://www.wattpad.com/story/161384980
