From Sappho to Sulpicia
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
In this article, I explore the elements of Greek archaic lyric poetry developed by Sappho that are taken up in the work of the Roman poets Sulpicia the Elegiac and Sulpicia the Erotic. Sappho's influence is evident in two ways: firstly, as a poet belonging to the Alexandrian canon of Greek lyric poetry, which was known by the Latin poets; and secondly, as an inspirational figure for female poets. Conversely, the works of the Roman poets will be analyzed in terms of the influence they exerted and the knowledge the Romans had of them, within the poetic genres they cultivated and the Roman literary tradition itself. Finally, a section will be dedicated to the issue of authorship of the Sulpiciae Conquestio.
