Record Number: 9278 Author(s)/Creator(s): Hafner , Susanne. Contributor(s): Title: Coward, Traitor, Landless Trojan: Æneas and the Politics of Sodomy [The author argues that the complaints against Æneas, as presented by the queen to her daughter Lavinia, center on the political rather than the sexual aspects of his preferences for men. Furthermore since Æneas abandoned Dido and refused to even leave her pregnant with his baby, the queen worries that her daughter will not have a child and the kingdom no future ruler.
