In place of the largely formulaic and functional employment of color, Vergil wove a complex network of chromatic allusions, linking episode to episode, developing a set of color themes or  chords  which strongly influence the reader's response to key passages in the epic. This study further argues that Vergil anticipated a favorite device of modern film makers by  shooting  certain sections of the poem in color and others in black and white. Long appreciated for its intellectual and ethical dimensions, the \u003ci\u003eAeneid\u003c\/i\u003e must also be seen as a masterful appeal to the senses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert Edgeworth\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0820416185\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780820416182\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Lang Inc., International Academic Publi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/1992\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 334\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Robert Edgeworth","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48483717611775,"sku":"9780820416182","price":68.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6e7a5372-3387-40c7-893e-f811c42f7506.jpg?v=1778040200","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-colors-of-the-aeneid-robert-edgeworth-9780820416182","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
