Virgil's Aeneid is the Ancient Roman epic penned as a sequel to Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, that tells the story of the Trojan War and its aftermath from a hero on the Trojan side, Aeneas. The epic poem has dramatic scenes, personal and cosmic in scale. Following Aeneas from Troy's fall, the end of the world as he knew it, through his struggles to rebuild, and glimpses into the glorious future to come. All of this is due to a careful relationship between the past and future, and knowing what is worth carrying out of the flames, and what must be left behind in the old world.

Mythos & Logos are two ancient words that can be roughly translated as “Story & Meaning.”
