By examining some early poetic understandings of what it might have meant to be Vergil, Ovid, and Tibullus, this volume explores what those authors meant to near-contemporaries, and what the construction of authorship they were a part of meant to the later western tradition.
The Appendix Tibulliana has often been neglected in scholarship on elegy of the Augustan period. This literary commentary argues that the poems it contains not only merit serious study for their own sake, but that their destabilization of some of the key norms of the genre could prompt a broader reassessment of our understanding of elegy.
