The rhetorical tradition of fictional letters in the persona of historical and mythical characters forms an important horizon of expectations for Ovid’s collection. After reviewing the anti-despotic rhetoric of the Greek epistolary corpus and of the narratives of exile in extant letters attributed to Aeschines, Themistocles, Demosthenes a…
The Cambridge Critical Guide to Latin Literature
The Cambridge Critical Guide to Latin Literature offers a critical overview of work on Latin literature. Where are we? How did we get here? Where to next? Fifteen commissioned chapters, along with an extensive introduction and Mary Beard's postscript, approach these questions from a range of angles. They aim not to codify the field, but to give snapshots of the discipline from different perspectives, and to offer provocations for future developme…
Persuasion, rhetoric and Roman poetry
Previous studies on the relationship between rhetorical theory and Roman poetry have generally taken the form of lists enumerating elements of style and arrangement that poets are said to have 'borrowed' from rhetorical critics.

Tracing key moments in the poetic and the rhetorical traditions,…

The chapter also investigates how the physical space of the tomb functioned as an early site of p…

One of the most important factors has been the establishment of reception studies. The reception of classical literature and culture …
