A close intertextual reading of Tydeus' monomachy in Statiusa Thebaid 2.527–723 uncovers a surprising range of self-contradictory heroic and monstrous models for his actions, drawn from throughout Latin epic. This intertextual confusion reflects a failure of traditional heroism in a poem dominated by civil war and Oedipal behaviour
