Thomas Jenkins
Harvard Classics Prose and Poetry Recital Page
Thomas Jenkins (formerly of Harvard, now at Rice University) has recorded Wendell Clausen and Richard Thomas reading a number of passages from the Aeneid in Latin: 1.195f., 1.586f., 4.331f., 6.124f., 6.185f., 6.450f. (read by Clausen) and 12.926 ad finem (read by Thomas). Readings from other Roman authors include Ovid and Statius (by Kathleen Coleman), Cicero and Catullus (by Richard Tarrant), and assorted Greeky things (by Gregory Nagy and Carolyn Higbie). These recordings are naturally very useful for students trying to get a sense of what classical poetry sounds like when read by someone with a feeling for poetry and classical meters.

J.-Y. Maleuvre
Virgilmurder.org
Maleuvre has been arguing for at least 34 articles and books that Virgil's poetry is rife with covert criticism of the princeps, and that Augustus eventually killed him for it. This web site summarizes those arguments. Even if you're not convinced (I'm not), readers who like the idea of a subversive Virgil will find lots of grist for their mills here. Among Maleuvre's more interesting claims: Augustus forged Virgil's Culex, along with several lines from the Aeneid.
