Story
"Par un après-midi du mois d'août, une légère voiture s'arrêta brusquement devant les deux chaumières, et une jeune femme, qui conduisait elle-même, dit au monsieur assis à côté d'elle : - Oh ! regarde, Henri, ce tas d'enfants ! Sont-ils jolis, comme ça, à grouiller dans la poussière ! L'homme ne répondit rien, accoutumé à ces admirations qui étaient une douleur et presque un reproche pour lui. La jeune femme reprit : - Il faut que je les embrasse ! Oh ! comme je voudrais en avoir un, celui-là, le tout petit."

Story
"Pendant latin de "l'Iliade" et de "l'Odyssée", "l'Énéide" est l'épopée latine par excellence qui fit de Virgile (70 - 19 av. J.-C.) le plus grand poète latin de l'Antiquité. Ce long récit aux péripéties captivantes raconte les aventures du Troyen Énée, ancêtre mythique du peuple romain, depuis la guerre de Troie jusqu'à son installation victorieuse dans le Latium. L'épopée, notamment l'histoire d'amour entre Didon et Énée ou la descente aux enfers d'Énée pour y retrouver son père, inspira de nombreuses œuvres littéraires et artistiques à toutes les époques."
