UNA NUOVA PROPOSTA PER UN ANTICHISSIMO PROBLEMA: DEO / DEA IN VERG. AEN. II 632

Annamaria Taliercio

Abstract


About Verg. Aen. II 632 deo / dea the communis opinio, though persuaded
that in any case the reference is to Venus, however prefers deo as lectio di¥cilior. Also the au-
thor of this article believes that deo is the right reading, but she is of the opinion that this word
in the context denotes all deities in general, and in the Aeneas’ expression ducente deo she
recognizes the pietas erga deos that Aeneas had preserved intact even amid the Troy’s ruins.
