Paul Scofield in Vergil Dying by GABRIEL JOSIPOVICI with music by JONATHAN HARVEY played by SEBASTIAN BELL
Rome's great poet-historian, coerced by Caesar Augustus to relinquish his ambition of becoming a philosopher in Athens, is returning to Rome with the Emperor when he is taken ill at Brindisi. The year is 19 ac.
As he lies in his room in the royal palace with the casket in which is the manuscript of the almost finished Aeneid, he meditates on his earlier writings, his successes and his failures, his virtues and his betrayals.
