A Discussion About the Modern Muse…

Posted in AP Latin Assignments by

This totally made me think about Vergil’s invocation of the muse. But it also made me think how artists, writers, creators are just media almost at the mercy, so to speak, of the muse. Vergil spent how long writing the Aeneid???? About ten years? Listen to this interview with authors Oliver Sacks and Elizabeth Gilbert. What are your thoughts?
