  • Characters
  • Cupid
  • Roman Sculptor
  • As Augustus rose to power, he needed a way to gain the support of Roman people. Augustus eventually meets with Virgil in creating a book that will show his power to all of Rome.
  • I need a way to rise and gain power in Rome. Could you possibly write a book showcasing the power I have?
  • Of course sir! You do not need to worry.
  • After the explanation of what Augustus wants to see in the book that Virgil writes, Virgil takes the time to think about the possible scenarios that he could include in the comic book to ensure that Augustus gets some recognition from the Roman people.
  • How am I going to pull this off?!
  • The first way Virgil insures that Augustus could rise to power in the Aeneid is by villainizing the gods. In the Aeneid, Laocoon, a priest is killed by the goddess Minerva who sends out two serpents in order to kill him. This ultimately makes the readers think of the gods as monsters and therefore should not worship them. This brings power to Augustus because if the Romans do not have the gods to believe to they must worship their leader.
  • Kill him!!!!!!
  • Another way Virgil makes sure Augustus rise to power with his novel is by showing the readers how terrible the Greeks were. Sinon, who was a crucial character in the Aeneid, was betrayed by the Greeks to be sacrificed. The Trojans found him and saved him. This shows how Rome was superior to the Greeks, therefore, showing Augustus' power over the Greeks and other people.
  • WE DON'T NEED YOU!!!!
  • Come with us.
  • One last attempt Virgil included in the Aeneid for Augustus to gain power is to make him seem superior to the other gods. In the novel it was said that Augustus was so powerful that he could get to places normal gods could not.
  • How did he get over there?!
  • Yes!!! I made it!!!!
  • The final product of Virgil's novel, The Aeneid, was read by many Romans. Due to the propaganda presented in the book, more and more people started following and supported Augustus as a ruler.
  • Our god and savior!!!
  • The Aeneid portrayed Augustus exactly how he wanted to be seen by the Romans. The main problem with displaying this by book is that some people couldn't read Latin which is why he needed another way to show his power visually
  • How am I going to get non-readers in Rome to believe that I am the most powerful?
  • Augustus eventually decided to meet with a sculptor and explains what he wanted to see on the sculpture that was going to show his power visually to the Roman public.
  • I want you to build a sculpture that shows me in my most ideal and powerful form.
  • One way the sculptor showed the power of Augustus through the Augustus of Primaporta is by making him appear younger than he is showing his ideal form. This insured that he is able to show power over the Romans
  • Augustus
  • Augustus of Primaporta Statue
  • One of Augustus’ propaganda pieces was Augustus of Primaporta in which he wears a breast plate that displays gods of heaven and earth, showing that Augustus’ empire reaches through to heaven and earth, and showing that the gods are content with Rome's rule.
  • We approve of this ruler!
  • Another element of the Primaporta is Cupid on a dolphin under Augustus’ leg in the statue. Cupid is a descendent of a god and putting Cupid under Augustus is showing that Augustus has a connection with the gods. The dolphin beneath Cupid shows the citizens of Rome, Augustus' naval victory at Actium showing how brave and powerful he is.
  • With a book presenting the power of the leader, and now a visual statue presenting his power, Augustus was able to rise using his propaganda. This power led him to be very respected in Rome and provided a time of peace in Rome.
