Lifetime Reading Plan: Virgil's Aeneid's Road of Hatred
http://lifetimereadingplan.blogspot.com/2010/08/aeneid-part-3.html
III 17th and 18th Centuries. V 20th and 21st Centuries. Tuesday, November 22, 2011. Virgil's Aeneid's Road of Hatred. In the final chapter of Virgil's Aeneid. Our hero faces a conflict between passion and duty that is quite different from the one in faced in chapter 4. As the battle rages on between the Romans and the native peoples of Italy, Aeneas, "ferocious in armor," confronts Turnus, who has killed Aeneas's best friend on the battlefield. Luca Giordano, Enea vince Turno. So ends the Aeneid. I enjoy...
Lifetime Reading Plan: Virgil's Aeneid: Finding a Way
http://lifetimereadingplan.blogspot.com/2011/11/virgils-aeneid-finding-way.html
III 17th and 18th Centuries. V 20th and 21st Centuries. Tuesday, November 15, 2011. Virgil's Aeneid: Finding a Way. My current journey into the classics was in many ways sparked by one book. In the course of my education, I had never read the Aeneid, nor did I even know the main plot of Virgil's story. I read the Lombardo translation of the Aeneid. While my son read the Fagles translation. Both are beautifully done. Often I compared the two writers' translations of particular passages- and more or le...

http://lifetimereadingplan.blogspot.com/2010/08/aeneid-part-2.html
III 17th and 18th Centuries. V 20th and 21st Centuries. Saturday, November 19, 2011. Virgil's Aeneid: Passion versus Responsibility. Peter Paul Rubens, Dido and Aeneas. And Aeneas certainly loves Dido back, although perhaps without quite as much of the goddess-inspired self-destructive passion that burns in Dido. And Dido and the Trojan leader make their way. To the same cave. Earth herself and bridal Juno. Give the signal. Fires flash in the Sky,. Witness to their nuptials. No longer is Dido swayed.
Lifetime Reading Plan: Spoilers in Ancient Literature
http://lifetimereadingplan.blogspot.com/2011/02/spoilers-in-ancient-literature.html
III 17th and 18th Centuries. V 20th and 21st Centuries. Thursday, February 3, 2011. Spoilers in Ancient Literature. Started a discussion on Twitter about the special problems that Classics bloggers face, I started thinking about how difficult I am finding the "spoiler" issue. In the few reviews I've written of books where plot twists are important- such as in The Loved One by Evelyn Waugh. I wouldn't have dreamed of giving away what happens. But somehow it feels very different when books don't seem t...

Wednesday, October 27, 2010. On the Hills of God. Since I plan to start my Lifetime Reading Plan. Project on 1/1/11, I have spent the last couple of months stuffing myself with contemporary books that will be more-or-less off-limits once the new year begins.

lifetimerambls | Thought about this yet…
Thought about this yet…. The ‘best’ way to give birth. June 1, 2015. Recently, there’s been a lot of talk on pregnancy and the ‘best’ way to give birth. Apparently, natural birth is good parenting. The debate all started when French doctor Michel Odent published his latest book. He claims that because childbirth has become so medicalised, women are no longer able to go through pregnancy without intervention. I’m sorry but is it just me thinking that women have a choice about their. What’s more, Odent arg...

Lifetime Reading Plan
III 17th and 18th Centuries. V 20th and 21st Centuries. Sunday, April 1, 2012. Medieval French Verse: Now this is classic. When I was in second-year French in high school, my teacher brought in a lovely little hardback of Luis d'Antin van Rooten's brilliant Mots d'Heures: Gousses, Rames. These poems, as puzzling as they may at first seem, offer up a very rich reward for all who read patiently. Recite them aloud a few times, especially savoring the rhythmic sounds of the verses, to hear these strangel...
