Question 1 of 12
Virgil's epic poem The Aeneid is about a great warrior, Aeneas, who
escapes from the city of Troy just before it falls to the Greeks at the
end of the Trojan War. After a long journey, Aeneas and his men arrive
in Italy where they fight with the Latins. He marries the Latin princess
Lavinia and founds the civilization that will eventually become Rome.
In Ursula K. Le Guin's novel Lavinia, the main character is a Latin
princess named Lavinia who marries the Trojan hero Aeneas and
becomes involved in the politics and conflicts between the Trojans and
the Latins in Italy. Eventually Lavinia comes to feel that she is at the
mercy of the writer Virgil himself, and that her world is not real.
Which statement best explains how the modern story transforms the ideas of
the original myth?
A. Le Guin gives more information about Aeneas's childhood and life
before the Trojan War, and about his vision for the great city of
Rome.
O B. Le Guin portrays the relationship between the Trojans, led by
Aeneas, and the Latins as full of conflict, violence, and destiny.
O C. Le Guin tells the story of The Aeneid from Lavinia's perspective to
make the events of the story more vivid, but also more impartial
and realistic.
D. Le Guin focuses on a minor female character from The Aeneas to
show how little free will women have in myths that have been
created by men.
