Posted byTriumvir ClioPosted inRoman Epics, The Romans

Virgil speaks for the trees in Book 2 of the Georgics.

Discussion Prompts
  1. If you were a tree what kind of tree would you be? Why?
  2. Discuss Virgil’s take on terroir.
  3. How has the land where you live and/or grew up affected who you are today?
  4. What do you think of the Georgics so far? Why?
  5. Country or city? Why?

I have a BA in History and Classical Civilization from Loyola University Chicago and an MPH from Western Michigan University. I've been a geometry teacher, a religion teacher, a writing tutor. I'm a writer, a knitter, a dancer, a singer, an actor. And, yes, for fun I like to reread everything that was assigned while getting my classics degree.
