How long and why did Aeneas and his men sail back and forth across the mediterranea?
Aeneas is a complex character who symbolizes the connection which the poet, Vergil, wishes to draw between ancient Troy and imperial Rome. His voyage comprises the first six books of the Aeneid and is Vergil's version of Homer's Odyssey. The Trojans' voyage lasts ten years, which time includes the building of the navy and the time in Carthage, both of which are lengthy. The ten years of transiency connects Aeneas symbolically to Odysseus, though the two characters differ in that, whereas Odysseus is traveling home (his past), Aeneas is traveling into the unknown (his future). Thus, the two narratives differ in that Aeneas cannot remember where he is going (to a country he has never visited, for a wife he does not know and a city he will not found), while Odysseus is recalling his way home to wife and country.
