Pietas in the Aeneid

Aeneas obeys his mother Venus and leaves the fall of Troy for his family
Lifts up father on his shoulders so he can hold the household gods
Heeds Hector's warning about Troy about taking the gods and continuing troy with them
Mourns for his city but still focuses on the present
Rrepresents the conflict of furor and pietas
Valued trait in Rome
Would be needed in Augustus reign
Makes Aeneas seem like the model roman citizen
Basic good behaviour and civility of Rome
Associated with religion and tolerance
Good comparison to Aeneas and Augustis with their shared piety with virgil depicts
Also seen in book 6 with the sibyl
Some sort of foreshadowing
Prays to Apollo and asks him what
Golden bough and idea of "chosen one" emphasises his piety
Could be a dark side of piety
Goes through the gates of false dreams instead of the true and pure in book 6
Deceives Juno in sneaking out of Carthage and causing her suicide
Doesn't end with destined land but instead of war
Could be argued as being fate inscribed
Is constantly reminded about his destiny
Cupid comes to him in book 4 to remind him of his destiny
About obeying the gods
Familial in the Aeneid with the direct relationship with a God
Needing to obey and honour Venus
Constant sacrifices to the Gods and allusions to them, as a sign of right or wrong
Sacrifices to Hercules in Roman 8 - Makes Evander seem pious
Nymphs and sexual desire in book 1
One of Aeneas' leading characteristics
Is directly translated as devotion or dutifulness
