Before either Aeneas or Dante enter they obtain guides who lead them. While Dante directly calls Virgil his master on a number of occasions, Aeneas doesn’t directly do so to the Sybil, but we see him defer to her judgement and experience. From end to end of the Inferno, Dante asks questions akin to “Master, who are these souls entombed…

O, tell not me of fear!” (IV,I,123) The plan seemed to be logical, but it was missing a vital component. Romeo wasn't aware of what was happening. The friar gave Juliet a potion to drink that would create the appearance that she was dead. “Then comes she to me, and with wild looks bid me devise some mean, to rid her…

World War 1 shattered the innocence of many people. The constant shelling, trench warfare, and death left many people broken and with shell shock. Robert Graves was no exception. In his book Good-Bye to All That, the war makes him lose his respect for the cowardly English authority. His religion goes with him to the trenches but was one of the fatalities.
