The epithet formosus, almost absent from Latin poetry before Virgil, is frequently employed in the Bucolics. This paper analyses some occurrences and some verse patterns in which it appears and compares Virgil’s use with instances in Propertius to suggest that formosus was a word associated with Gallus and hence used by Virgil in the context of a literary dialogue with him.

Pushkin and Ovid

87%
PL
Alexander Pushkin knew what he shared with Ovid. Both were exiled, having enjoyed a splendid life, both were highly gifted, and not too shy of erotic adventures – of which they speak amply in their poetry. The Russian formalist Tynyanov pointed at such similarities, inventing the literary genre of ‘docufiction’.

In this article I analyse the theme of love and death as explored by Propertius in his Elegy 4.7. I also attemptto show that the problem of incongruence between this poem and the neighbouring Elegy 4.8 can be resolvedby means of an aesthetically oriented reading of both poems.

The figure and myth of Adonis were brought to Rome by poets, and for this reason their “existence” in Latin culture was exclusively literary. In particular, the pathos of this story of love and death aroused the interest of the Neoteric and elegiac poets, who used Adonis as an exemplum to illustrate certain τόποι of their genre and to emphasize the originality of their poetry. Through analysis of the treatment of this figure in Propertius, it is possible to reconstruct the interesting dialogue that he conducted with other poets and undertake a study of the learned use of the exemplum in his oeuvre.

Propertius, one of the most important poets of the Augustan Age, referred sometimes to Roman politics. One of the issues he covered in 2nd, 3rd and 4th book of his elegies was Romano-Parthian relations. The Augustan propaganda exploited the topic of revenge for the defeat of Carrhae in 53 BC and forecasted the conquest of the Arsacid monarchy. The poets of this age also referred to the Roman policy towards Parthia. In paper it was shown how in the course of time Propertius’ attitude to Parthian topics changed and how the image of Parthians was influenced by the current political situation.

Propercjusz, jeden z najważniejszych poetów epoki augustowskiej, sięgał nieraz w swoich utworach do tematyki politycznej. Jednym z wątków poruszanych przez niego w II, III i IV księdze elegii są stosunki rzymsko-partyjskie. Propaganda augustowska wykorzystywała temat zemsty za klęskę pod Carrhae w roku 53 przed Chr. i zapowiadała podbój monarchii Arsakidów. Poeci tej epoki również nawiązywali do rzymskiej polityki wobec Partów. W artykule pokazano, jak na przestrzeni lat zmieniało się podejście Propercjusza do tematyki partyjskiej i jak na obraz Partów wpływała aktualna sytuacja polityczna.
