Résumé 0

The Virgilian episode of Allecto, culminating with the opening of the doors of the temple of Janus by Juno ( Aen. VII, 323-622), is examined with respect to Ennius’ fragment on Discord (fr. X from Annales, book VII, v. 225-226 Skutsch), beginning with Servius’ commentary ad Aen. VII, 622. Several problems are reconsidered in order to dissipate widespread prejudices, such as the ­chronological reconstruction of events ­concerning the Discord in the Annals and the negative evaluation of the “division” of the action between Juno and Allecto in book VII of the Aeneid.
