Virgilio a Cartagine (Note a Anth. Lat. 244 R.=237 Sh.B.)
Cristante, Lucio
2007
Abstract
This paper offers a critical edition with commentary of the Virgilian thema, 24 hexameters contained in
the Anthologia Latina, which draws inspiration from Verg. Aen. XII 653: Turne, in te suprema salus. This
composition, along with the other two Virgilian remakes contained in the Salmasian book, reflects the
scholarly practice of suasoria. Thanks to the rhetorical instruments employed, they give new interpretations
of the Virgilian contexts of reference, without which they would be incomprehensible, and may represent
exegetical forms alternative to those known by the surviving commentaries.
