Clásicos
The Fourth Book of Virgil's Aeneid and the Ninth Book of Voltaire's Henriad by Voltaire is about the legendary story of Aeneas, a Trojan who fled the fall of Troy and traveled to Italy, and the siege of Paris in 1589 by Henry III in concert with Henry of Navarre. Excerpt: "SIR, After reading with infinite pleasure your masterly translations of Virgil, I have been led into a train of reflection on the mechanism of words, and on the manners, the ideas, and pursuits of Nations in as much as they frequently give rise to the difference of character which we remark in their language. Few literary discussions would I think be more curious than an impartial comparative inquiry of this kind."
