Quoted: Oscar Wilde

"Those who are faithless know the pleasures of love; it is the faithful who know love's tragedies."

In your fourth blog entry, you should 
(1) Express book 4 of the Aeneid from the perspective of Achates.
(2) Have Achates discuss his feelings about how Aeneas treated Dido.  Maybe he has an inside perspective on the eternal question of book 4: Did Aeneas actually love Dido, or was he just using her?
(3) Use the suggestions of those who have commented on your previous blogs (ESPECIALLY ME!) to improve the quality of your essay.

Quoted: Quentin Crisp

"Nothing shortens a journey so pleasantly as an account of misfortunes at which the hearer is permitted to laugh."

Quentin Crisp

What humor exists in the the otherwise tragic story of the journeys of the Trojans to lighten the reader's emotional burden?

Re-tell the story of book 3 from the perspective of Anchises, emphasizing the events that may be seen as humorous.  Be sure to incorporate the suggestions of previous comments!

Quoted: Cicero

"Nothing is more noble, nothing more venerable than fidelity.  Faithfulness and truth are the most sacred excellences and endowments of the human mind."
In your second blog entry, you should 
(1) Express book 2 of the Aeneid from the perspective of Achates.
(2) Have Achates discuss the role of  faithfulness, trust, and truth in the downfall of Troy.  Does he believe that it is good that Priam was so trusting of even the enemy, thus proving his own goodness, or does he believe that more shrewdness is required?  
(3) Use the suggestions of those who have commented on your previous blogs (ESPECIALLY ME!) to improve the quality of your essay.  Remember this is to be a single narrative which re-tells the story of book 2, reflects the theme, and develops the character of Achates.

Looking forward to reading your responses!
