Una scena di oaristys in Longo Sofista
Floridi, Lucia
2016
Abstract
Building on F. Cairns, The Genre ‘Oaristys’, «WS» CXXXIII (2010), 101-129, the
purpose of this article is to read the scene of Lycainion’s seduction of Daphnis in Long.Soph.
3.15-19 within the narrative pattern of the oaristys, the ‘wooing’. I argue that considering
the passage as adhering to such a pattern shall contribute to the full appreciation of the author’s
refined and complex literary strategy underlining the ideal continuum between the
novel’s episode and other famous seduction scenes in the Greek literary (especially poetic)
tradition.
