Latin counterpart with...Tolkien?
Greek and Roman mythology with...LOTR?
Tolkien's prose with the poetry of Homey and Vergy? C'mon, duuuuuuuuude...
What next will you hold forth on... the artistic merits of "Dragons and Dungeons?"
Follow Ups:
And it is ever so ponderous in Latin. You no doubt read Virgil in Latin, being blackrobe spawn. Please don't try to convince me how wonderful the Aeneid is. Now Homer, he knew how to weave a tale of ironic tragedy. I'll take LOTR over Roman pulp fiction any day. Hell, Virgil himself wanted to burn the infernal thing.
