Medieval – sortes Virgilianae, the magic egg shit , “forerunner of Christianity…” 4th eclogue
Clarke “juster view”, Williams “allegorising”
“English Augustan Age” pg 123 begins with Dryden’s translation- regarded Virgil as his master, “arstistic control, and secondly moral and political significance” pg 124
no longer allegorising
18th cent Keble thought “seems the outcome of a duty and and a task rather than the spontaneous flow and impulse of the poet’s inmost heart” pg 131
Clarke: use as a schoolbook prevents fresh analysis, Clarke accusing it of “fettering the spontaneous growth of poetic form”

It's just the conclusion now, just read the whole essay and see what argument I'm trying to make. It'll be easy!
NB: Essay has no argument.
