[00:00:00]So, for the longest time, for about a thousand years, Virgil was the most dominant thinker in European history.

[00:00:09]And Virgil's Aeneid, which we read, becomes the basis for Augustine.

[00:00:19]Um he wrote two major books, Confessions and City of God.

[00:00:25]And this will become the basis of the Catholic Church.
