Iopas again

Replying to T. E. Kinsey's remarks on my article in Emerita 49, 1981, 17-25, I maintain that Iopas' song (Aen. I 740-7) contains a vision of a disturbed cosmic order appropriate to the dangerous erotic atmosphere around Dido and Aeneas here and that it contrasts significantly with the world-order depicted in Anchises' speech of Aen. VI. Atlas, as Iopas' teacher, belongs to a similarly ambiguous image of cosmic and natural order: cf. Aen. IV 246-51. An addendum calls attention to James Joyce's use of Iopas' didacticism in Ulysses.
