They Say All's Fair

<p>It's Aeneas and Dido: A Tale of Love and War. As we get into the first major episodes of Aeneas' journey, we embark upon an intricate composition of wheels within wheels--stories of carnage and battle interlocked with stories of desire, affection, and lust. From an explanation of ring composition via Harry Potter, to a Virgilian image that has changed poetry ever since, to a bonus segment on chiasmus and the clapper (you know, that thing you can use to turn your lights on and off) it's a jam-packed addition to our Aeneas series.</p> <p>Check out our Sponsor, The Ancient Language Institute: <a href="https://ancientlanguage.com/heretics">https://ancientlanguage.com/heretics</a></p> <p>Order Light of the Mind, Light of the World (and rate it five stars): <a href="https://a.co/d/2QccOfM">https://a.co/d/2QccOfM</a></p> <p>Subscribe to be in the mailbag: <a href="https://rejoiceevermore.substack.com">https://rejoiceevermore.substack.com</a></p> <p>Beatrice Groves on Ring Composition in Harry Potter: </p> <p class="MsoNormal"><a href="https://www.hogwartsprofessor.com/guest-post-stone-goblet-hallows-literary-links-and-riddles-in-philosophers-stone-goblet-of-fire-and-deathly-hallows-dr-groves-part-ii/"> https://www.hogwartsprofessor.com/guest-post-stone-goblet-hallows-literary-links-and-riddles-in-philosophers-stone-goblet-of-fire-and-deathly-hallows-dr-groves-part-ii/</a></p>
