‘In an age of refugees seeking to escape their war-torn home-lands, an age of rising nationalism across the globe, an age in which many in Europe and the United States are suspicious of "the East" and its religious differences….the Aeneid has more to say to us than ever’ (p. xv)

Another visit to Cambridge last weekend!

The rehanging of the Dugas and its reconfiguration amongst other wonderful paintings at the Fitzwilliam was a highlight.
