own conclusion as to the accuracy

opinions. and as to the social value
of individuals of his sort.
He is the poetic spirit to whom
life. or at any rate war. is a harsh,
irrational. uncivilized thing. An
ancient abbey which he sees demol-
ished by German guns signifies to
him (as it seems 10 have signified
to Henry Adams) the expression Of
gigantic power that the modern
world. with all it's Big Berthas and
gas bombs. has not equaled. He
feels every whizz Of a shell, every
hand grenade. as though it had hit
him; he suffers In the means of the
manned as though the wounds were
his. The war to him is a preemin-
emily personal affair.
1t has been said above that critics
seized upon the social rather than
the personal side of Mr.. Dos Passos's
depictions. That the author meant
them to have social side. perhaps
a primarily social purpose. is clear
enough. He set out to picture war
as it strikes the sensitized mental
retina of the artist: that Is to say,
war as (to him) it really is. Any
other picture of it is necessarily in
accurate because incomplete: other

1t may be pointed out that the
line of division is one of innate dis
position. of temperament: that the
average in a body of millions of men
will almost invariably possess more
sturdy nerves. lower susceptibility
to impression. an emotionally less
vulnerable constitution than the Dos
Fassos type. This average man,
though able to endure more. though
greater worker, will possess like
wise the defects of those qualities.
He will be less senitive to the feel
ings that make such a vivid and
lasting impress upon the mind of
his more temperamental fellow: he
will be Gin all likelihood) less of the
artist. 1t is often. though not by
any means always. the man who has
greatest difficulty enduring the
strain of living who is best able to
reproduce life in terms of art.
Hence the Barbusse or the Dos
Passos, by reason of the very fact
that he sees and feels so preterna-
turally keenly and expresses his
so effectively. will not rep
resent the majority of his fellows

to find that he had what was known
technically as q perfectly normal
vision. very rare thing. Then. as
Shaw tells it, he knew why he saw
the world differently from others:
he was almost the only one with
normal vision: all the rest saw
myopically. This Is the artists
idea of how he sees and experiences
the external world. He is convinced
that he sees it correctly. For is not
the artists the only truly normal
vision?
Until one clearly distinguishes
this conviction as a factor. one is
not likely to make much progress
toward determining whether what
the artist sees Is the truth: one will
only be setting up ones own vision
Of reality against his.
1t is not to be questioned that the
optical and emotional picture that
Mr.. Dos Passos presents was his

proportion Of those who experienced
it will act upon it is to be doubted.

IL is not n mere matter of chance
that Vergil has held the attention of
humanistic scholars of the past fifty
years or so. as Horace did those o.
the preceding century. He is, in fact
very much of our time-especially
among the English thinking peoples,
among whom there is a natural res

tirely sound, though it needs to be
used with discretion-as Prof. Frank
does use it. 1t is possible to infer
too much. For instance. some spec
ulators have strained the poem bid
ding farewell to rhetoric" and reN
joicing in the progress toward the
study of philosophy under Siro'c
teachings to rather wide implica-
tons. One may suggest, diffidently.
that there is in it little more than
schoolboy's jubilation at passing -

gous to the once familiar ceremony
of the burning of Euclid or the
happy release which used to lead
the French collegian to march joy
ously down the Boul' Mich. to thu
river carroling. "Conspuez Cation"
1t will hardly do to use it as an ar
gument that Vergil was more deeply
interested in speculative philosophy
than in poetry or even rhetoric.
But it is not the purpose of this
notice to attempt any critical exam
ination of the book. from a technical
standpoint. Rather is il more worth

One Mans View of Vergil

poems" attributed to Vergil. which,
until recently have been regarded
with suspicion or haughtily brushed
aside as spurious. There is by no
means universal agreement among
the critics as yet, but the weight of
modern opinion now leans strongly
toward accepting most of these as
youthful efforts of vergil himself. In
them are many references to per-
sonal matters and Indirectly a great
deal more can be deduced from their
study. Prof. Frank goes pretty far
in accepting them. but on the whole
the argument in their favor is very
convincing.
1t is difficult. however. to go with
him in assigning the "Copa Surisca"
to Vergil; largely for the reasons
that led Mr.. Wells's Boon. to reject
the Indian Bacchus as a bust If
because it doesn't look like
him." 1t doesn't read like Virgil. and
1t does resemble Propertius. There
has even been very ingenious argu-
ment put forward. attributing the
poem to a certain lady. possibly one

has seen a woman's work in il. In
any case it is not very important
as to Vergil's life. or personality,
though ii takes a higher rank, in it
self. as literature, than most of the
other pieces.
Still harder is it. for the preser.
reviewer, at least. to accept the
tedious Aetna" as Vergilian; espe-
cially in view of its close resem-
blance to the ideas about nature ex-
pressed by Seneca The attribution
of the poem to Lucilius Junior. Sene-

But with these two exceptions.
neither of them of great moment,
one may heartily agree with the
plausibility of versilian authorship
for the rest, especially the "Ciris"
and "Culex." and some of the ''Kata-
lepton." From these Prof Frank is
able TO draw newly vivid picture
of Versil's youth. his school days
friendships and family history. 1t is
especially useful as corrective to
some persistently current notions
that have their roots in medieval
misconception. For example. one may
often find references to Vergil as of

fectively disposes of that-which was
an inherently improbable thing on its
face since we knew that Vergil re-

was also evidently of a family of
some dignity. as we'll as of Roman
citizenship. Furthermore, Vergil pre-
