Example Question #1 :References To Rome In Poetry Passages
Defessi一个eneadae, quae proxima litora, cursu
contendunt petere, et Libyae vertuntur ad oras.
Est in secessu longo locus: insula portum
efficit obiectu laterum, quibus omnis ab alto
frangitur inque sinus scindit sese unda reductos.
"Aeneadae" in line 1 refers to__________.
Possible Answers:
Troy
一个eneas
一个neas' son
The Trojans
Correct answer:
The Trojans
Explanation:
The word "Aeneadae" refers to the Trojans. It is one of many names that they are referred to as in Vergil's一个eneid.In Latin, it is normal to add the suffix "-ida" to the name of someone to indicate that a person or group is the descendent(s) of that person. Since Aeneas is the leader of the Trojans, it makes sense to refer to them as the Aeneadae (The Aeneans or Race of Aeneas).
(Passage adapted from the一个eneidby Vergil, 1.157-161)
