David F. Bright, then Vice President for Arts and Sciences and Dean of Emory College, and Peter Bing, Chair of the Classics Department, deserve special thanks. The Office of the Dean of Emory College and the Department of Classics hosted the institute and offered generous support of its activities, both formal and informal. First I would like to thank the National Endowment for the Humanities for funding the 1994 summer institute "Reading Vergil's Aeneid in the Humanities Curriculum," in which this volume found its origin. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10Ĭontents Acknowledgments Editor's Introductionġ.
