Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Silver Age of Latin Literature, From Tiberius to Trajan Such once Rome's taste, that now is fickle grown And with the lust for writing burns alone. No boy, no senior staid, but as he dines Must wreathe his brows in bay, and spout his lines.' The remark may belong to as late a date as the year 13 but dilettantism was clearly rampant thirty years earlier, when the poet published the Satires, in one of which 1 he finds it necessary to explain, obviously as a departure from the custom of the age, his reluctance to give public readings of his works.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A thesis on the literary reception of Julius Caesar from the reign of Tiberius to that of Trajan is needed because, until now, the main focus of scholarly attention has been on Caesar"s place in the literature of the triumviral period and the Augustan age (44 BC "†AD 14). Scholarship has also identified a seeming revival of interest in Caesar that took place during Trajan"s reign (AD 98 "†117), with texts from this era and beyond seeming to portray Caesar (and not Augustus) as the founder of the Empire. The current investigation will address the relatively neglected period in between "†neglected despite the introduction of Caesar as an epic character in Lucan"s Pharsalia "†and explore wider questions surrounding Caesar"s textual representation, including its relationship with the many other ways in which he was being remembered in Rome. By conducting close readings of texts, and using the material culture and urban landscape of Rome as well as other evidence of the political use of Caesar to pose questions to the literature, this critical part of Caesar"s early reception is carefully surveyed. Caesar appears as conqueror, writer, orator, assassinated tyrant, divine forefather and monstrous literary construct "†to name just some of his depictions. A potentially dangerous point of reference given his fate, Caesar is relevant and valuable to the texts under discussion because in his evocation authors can tackle topics such as politics, statesmanship, religion, family relations, morality and even literature itself. Working chronologically through this period, key considerations include the relationship of text to state and between texts, the role of the reader in recognising traces of Caesar, and the impact that genre and narrative context (not just era) can have on an author"s treatment of Caesar.

This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 719 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Literary History of Rome From the Origins to the Close of the Golden Age This volume endeavours to present a connected account of Latin literature in its earliest phases and in its best period. Some preliminary attention has been paid to the descent of the Romans, their language, and character. For the patient research wherewith scholars have brought together the often mutilated fragments of archaic Latin, literary history lies under a great debt. These are profoundly instructive as germs of later productions. In this work, by a sketch of tribal origins, of primitive simplicity in Roman life, of prominent features in national affairs, and of changes in social or intellectual conditions, the suggestion intended to be conveyed is that of a development towards complexity parallel to the development out of the old rude monuments of the language into the finish of Cicero or Virgil. Literary advance has been exemplified by noting new modes of thought, new fashions in composition, and the attainment of new suppleness in expression and new effects in metrical harmony. Throughout, one of the aims has been to insist upon the permanence of the Roman type despite every novelty and despite the inrush of Greek influences. Hellenism notwithstanding, the civilisation of Rome - principles, aspirations, aesthetics - remained Roman. The Roman borrowed in a Roman way. Not merely passive and impressionable, his masculine vigour strongly controlled and moulded foreign material. The national aspects of the literature have, therefore, been emphasised.
