Influenced by Virgils great epic with its tragic tale of the love of Queen Dido for Aeneas comes this new and passionate story of a separate love affair between two lesser people. Didos sister Anna and one of Aeneas captains are thrown together by chance or destiny after years of wandering as refugees in a hostile world. Caught up in the web and dictates of history, they struggle to maintain the integrity of their love against the demands of the world. Events over which they have little or no control lead to nearly insurmountable challenges of loyalty to family and devotion to duty. This is their story. It is the story of love held hostage to the fate of others of far greater importance then themselves. Rising out of the dim pages of history, Didos Sister is a love story as modern as it is universal.

These books are intended to make Virgil's Latin accessible even to those with a fairly rudimentary knowledge of the language. There is a departure here from the format of the electronic books, with short sections generally being presented on single, or double, pages and endnotes entirely avoided. A limited number of additional footnotes is included, but only what is felt necessary for a basic understanding of the story and the grammar. Some more detailed footnotes have been taken from Conington's edition of the Aeneid.
Alphabetically listed entries identify and explain the characters, events, important places, and other aspects of Greek and Roman mythology.
The most complete and detailed reference book of its kind, Who's Who in Classical Mythology contains over 1200 extensive entries, covering both Greek and Roman characters.

The universally acclaimed and award-winning Oxford History of Western Music is the eminent musicologist Richard Taruskin's provocative, erudite telling of the story of Western music from its earliest days to the present. Each book in this superlative five-volume set illuminates-through a representative sampling of masterworks-the themes, styles, and currents that give shape and direction to a significant period in the history of Western music. Music in the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries , the second volume Richard Taruskin's monumental history, illuminates the explosion of musical creativity that occurred in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Examining a wealth of topics, Taruskin looks at the elegant masques and consort music of Jacobean England, the Italian concerto style of Corelli and Vivaldi, and the progression from Baroque to Rococo to romantic style. Perhaps most important, he offers a fascinating account of the giants of this period: Bach, Handel, Mozart, Haydn, and Beethoven. Laced with brilliant observations, memorable musical analysis, and a panoramic sense of the interactions between history, culture, politics, art, literature, religion, and music, this book will be essential reading for anyone who wishes to understand this rich and diverse period.
