The intervention of Apollo in Aen. 9 is seen as a staging of metanarrative: the god appears in a Callimachean setting, and excludes Ascanius from the plot of the poem, whereas in the pre-Virgilian legend it was him who put an end to the war in Latium by killing Mezentius in a single combat.

Abstract

The intervention of Apollo in Aen. 9 is seen as a staging of metanarrative: the god appears in a Callimachean setting, and excludes Ascanius from the plot of the poem, whereas in the pre-Virgilian legend it was him who put an end to the war in Latium by killing Mezentius in a single combat.
