Rome’s greatest poet, the singer of his legendary origins, Publius Vergilius Maro was born near Mantua on the 15th of October 70 b.C., son of a small landowner. Even in his youth, he went to Naples for the first time in order to attend the philosophy school, even before moving to Rome in order to complete the course with the rhetoric studies.
