The Hellenistic Origins of Memory as Trope for Literary Allusion in Latin Poetry
The demonstrated Greek origins of Latin terms of allusion lead one to consider also a possibly Hellenistic background for the common figure of memory as signal of literary reference in Latin poetry. Tracing the models for terms of literary reminiscence in Republican and Augustan poetry to Callimachus and Apollonius in particular, this article demonstrates that memory as trope for literary allusion occurs in Hellenistic poetry, wherein several fea…
Synopsis Purioris Theologiae / Synopsis of a Purer Theology
This bilingual edition of the Synopsis Purioris Theologiae (1625) provides English readers access to an influential textbook of Reformed Orthodoxy. Composed by four professors at the University of Leiden (Johannes Polyander, Andreas Rivetus, Antonius Walaeus, and Anthonius Thysius), it offers a presentation of Reformed theology as it was conceived in the first decades of the seventeenth century. From a decidedly Reformed perspective, the Christia…
Nonnus and the Poetry of Ekphrasis in the Dionysiaca
Literary Allusion and Unity of Thought in the Description of Hannibal's Shield in Punica 2.403-452
In the ecphrasis of Hannibal's shield in Punica 2.403–452 allusions to Vergil's ethnographical excursus on Libya in Georgics 3.339–348 and the Laudes Italiae (G. 2.118–176) subvert the ostensibly idyllic picture of the Punic countryside, thus reinforcing the dichotomy between the perspectives of the internal viewer, Hannibal, and the Roman narrator

The Captor's Image
BOOK REVIEWS/COMPTES RENDUS 187 reading. No contribution in itself quite overcomes the gaps between Lucretian poetry, Epicurean philosophy, and atomist science, even though the gaps (if they can be called such) are not as wide as once claimed. Indeed, I am inclined to believe that the fabric of DRN is so complexly woven as to evade the truly synthetic analysis that the volume title seeks. New and interesting work on DRN such as these essays needs…
Scholastic Continuities in the Reproduction of Classical Sources in the Synopsis Purioris Theologiae
This article seeks to contribute to the current re-evaluation of the relationship between the Protestant Reformation and the first period of Reformed orthodoxy by examining the ways in which the authors of the Synopsis Purioris Theologiae appropriated the literatures of classical antiquity and employed them in the context of their scholastic discourses. The derivative manner in which the many references to ancient Greek and Latin writings are emp…

The Woven Garment as Literary Metaphor
The Description of the Palace in Seneca Thyestes 641-82 and the Literary Unity of the Play
In the ongoing debate concerning the performability of Senecan tragedy, the plays tend to be studied as either literature or drama. One consequence of this artificial distinction is that set passages such as descriptiones loci appear to support the view that Seneca's plays were intended for public reading, as 'recitation drama'. By means of a close examination of the messenger's description of the palace of Atreus (Thyestes 641-82) in the context…
Poetics of Closure in Horace Odes 3.1
In the final stanza of Odes 3.1, Horace reverts to themes broached in the programmatic opening lines, qualifying them in light of the intervening lyric argument. By means of associations with literary aesthetics in the question cur valle permutem Sabina divitias operosiores (47-48), and by allusions to the proem of Vergil Georgics 3 and to Pindar Olympian 6.1-4 in invidendis postibus et novo sublime ritu moli aratrium (45-46), Horace develops a l…
