Jeri Blair DeBrohun illuminates the manner in which the poet reinvents and revitalizes his elegy in Book 4 by broadening its lyrical promise and ideological horizons.DeBrohun finds the most striking element of Book 4 to be the apparent polarity of the poems, whose themes are split between new, aetiological sub…

Barbarian Play: Plautus' Roman Comedy
In this volume William S. Anderson sets Plautus, who wrote Rome's earliest surviving poetry, in his rightful place among the Greek and Roman writers of what we know as New Comedy (fourth to second centuries). Anderson begins by defining major innovations that Plautus made on inherited Greek New Comedy (Menander, Philemon, and Diphilus), transforming it from romantic domestic drama to a celebration of rollicking family anarchy. He shows how Plautu…

Lucretius on Death and Anxiety: Poetry and Philosophy in De Rerum Natura
In a fresh interpretation of Lucretius's On the Nature of Things, Charles Segal reveals this great poetical account of Epicurean philosophy as an important and profound document for the history of Western attitudes toward death. He shows that this poem, aimed at promoting spiritual tranquillity, confronts two anxieties about death not addressed in Epicurus's abstract treatment--the fear of the process of dying and the fear of nothingness. Lucreti…

Ovid's Metamorphoses. Books 6-10
The Latin text of the poem's first five books including commentary and an introduction highlighting the central themes in Ovid's work which extends in time from the creation of the world to the death of Julius Caesar. The first five books are concerned with the relationship between gods and humans
The New Comedy of Greece and Rome
In writing this book on the plays of New Comedy the author's aim is to fill a gap in the existing literature by concentrating on what one might look for in watching and reading these plays and why such an exercise might be pleasurable. The social comedy of Menander, Plautus and Terence provided a style of comic drama which was to prove the root of all subsequent western comedy. Dr Hunter gives a literary account of this drama, placing it in its a…
Hercules Exclusus: Propertius, IV, 9
Studies in Classical Satire and Related Literary Theory
DURING THE FIRST twenty-five years of this century, many scholars, stimulated by the controversial articles of Leo and the younger American pair, Hendrickson and Ullman, concerned themselves to establish a definition ofsatura and to place Roman satire in an acceptable literary and historical scheme. Much was undoubtedly achieved, but often at the cost of such polemic that for the time being the solid achievements were ignored, even denied. Now th…
Love Plots in Menander and his Roman Adapters
It is a well known fact and problem for students of Plautus and Terence that the lack of corresponding Menandrian originals for the comedies known to have been adapted into Latin has forced us to operate with various conjectural theories about the amount and method of change introduced in their adapted plots by the Roman playwrights. We might have expected Donatus to have provided some help here, since he frequently cites the Greek lines that Ter…

W.S. Anderson: Artist's Limits in Ovid The Artist's Limits in Ovid: Orpheus, Pygmalion, and Daedalus William S. Anderson It has become increasingly clear to critics that Ovid was closely in touch with the main trends of Alexandrian poetry and that, even more than Propertius, he was the greatest Roman follower of Callimachus.1 Recent research on Callimachus and Apollonius and Theocritus has also revealed unnoticed depths to their work, an awarenes…

The Art of the Aeneid
A New Menandrian Prototype for the "Servus Currens" of Roman Comedy
W HEN THE CAIRO PAPYRUS in 1905 gave to the world the first substantial quantity of Menander, scholars found answers to some problems concerning the relation between Greek New Comedy and Roman Comedy, but many questions remained unsettled. This was particularly true with regard to the role of the slave. The new Menandrian material did not provide any satisfactory analogue for Plautus' superlative scheming slave nor for another shorter slave role,…

A. Persi Flacci Saturarum Liber. Accedit Vita
Persius 1. 107–10
Persius places these words in the mouth of his interlocutor, who states one of the traditional arguments against satire in the contrived manner typical of our poet. The passage may be translated: ‘What need is there to rasp upon tender little ears with biting truth? Be careful that the thresholds of the great do not perhaps grow cold towards you; here there is the nasal sound of the canine letter.’
