Tonight we follow Aeneas across the sea to Sicily for an entire book of games and competition, sadly followed by disaster. From there Book 6 takes Aenea into the underworld to meet with his father and see the future glories of Rome...or maybe he doesn't travel to the underworld. What was it that Virgil really wanted us to believe about this ancient obligation to travel to the world below?
