An examination of the first appropriation in Wester Literature and how it set the tone for the way the rest of us would appropriate. Focuses on Virgl, Homer, and the relationship between the Aeneid and Homer's Epics, the Iliad and the Odyssey. This relationship between these texts is important because it laid the groundwork for how and why other writers in the Western Literary Tradition would also appropriate previous works.
