On Tuesday, April 9, the Department of Classical Studies and the William & 玛丽/St. 安德鲁斯大学联合学位课程邀请托马斯·比格斯做了题为“维吉尔的《埃涅伊德》中的性别与互文性”的演讲。 The talk focused on the intertextuality between Vergil and his Greek epic predecessor, Homer. Dr. Biggs explored how Vergil’s borrowing and transformation of Homeric similes map onto the notions of gender and sexuality tied to certain epic characters.
