Aeneas is not the most poignant speech maker‚ as is revealed through his only rebuttal of Dido’s claims.

Auden’s “The Shield of Achilles” is a nine-stanza poem that uses an episode from Homer’s ancient Greek epic Iliad (c. 800 b.c.e.; Eng. trans.‚ 1616) to meditate on the violence and brutality of the modern world.
