Abstract


This article is aimed to show how Virgil introduces new elements in Eurydice (Orpheus’ wife) and Creusa’s (Aeneas’ wife) myths. The Mantuan poet sets up the canonical versions of these Greek heroines for the future and assimilates the two mythical characters thanks to an old homonym among their names.
