Alterazioni semantiche ed espedienti compositivi nel Cento Probae
Fassina, Alessia
2006
Abstract
The author discusses the allusive technique of the Cento Probae, in which the pia munera Christi are conveyed by assembling a rich fabric of Vergilian echoes. Fassina compares Proba's text with another late antique cento, the so-called Versus ad gratiam Domini by Pomponius, and demonstrates the superiority of Proba’s technique, who is able to amalgamate, more ably than Pomponius, different quotations of Vergilian units.
