Relating the story of a Trojan who wanders to Italy and from whom the Romans are descended; the work presents two themes in general. The first is related to the wanderings while the second centres on a war that took place between the Trojans and the Latins. Although the work remains incomplete, it is seen by critics as a comment on the vengeful nature of human kind.
