Ruricio poeta
Analisi e commento di epist. II 19
Gasti, Fabio
2006
Abstract
This paper is a running commentary on a metrical epistle (2.19) sent by Ruricius of Limoges to his friend Sedatus. The commentary brings to light the wealth of literary echoes (from the Augustan poets, historians, grammarians and a handful of allusions to Christian authors) and the "esprit précieux" of Ruricius who, like many other late antique writers, seeks refuge in the world of literature unscathed by the worrying events of the outside world.
