Camilla is an important character to focus on because of how she is interpreted and characterizes throughout these sources. Virgil focuses highly on her virginity. Camilla's virginity allows her to be as powerful as she is because this allowed her to have a strong connection to the goddess Diana. Although virginity is connected to her power, she is still recognized as a warrior worthy of fighting against Aeneas. Christine De Pizan allows readers to feel connected to Camilla and to also see her as a role model. Camilla does not have power through her virginity, but through practice and devotion. De Pizan focuses on Camilla's accomplishments and not her virginity. Giovanni Bononcini brings in a Camilla that hardly has any similarities from Virgil or De Pizan. The opera does not focus on Camilla's worthiness or accomplishments, it is more about entertainment and a happy ending. Camilla is not saved because of herself, but because of someone who is in love with her. Her main characterization is being a virgin for many reasons and that is not represented in the opera.
