METRE IN MARCUS HIERONYMUS VIDA’S POETICS

Languages of publication

Abstracts

EN
In his Poetics, Vida extols the hexameter, versus heroicus, as the noblest metre. Although he recommends Virgil as the most perfect model for imitation, he himself uses the much freer hexameter of Horace, who not always takes care to make the ictus agree with the word accent in the last two feet, and sometimes breaks the Laws of Lachmann-Norden, Haupt and Marx. Thanks to the critical edition of Vida’s didactic poem, it is possible to observe the author’s work on the metre – he eliminates some clumsy lines that occur mainly in the Poetics preserved in the Venturi Codex (V).
