Virgil's Epic Designs: Ekphrasis in the Aeneid
Michael C. J. Putnam
A study of ekphrasis - a self-contained aside that generates a pause in the narrative to describe a work of art or other object - in Virgil's final masterpiece, the "Aeneid". The author shows how the descriptions provide metaphors for the entire poem and reinforce its ambiguities.
