  1. Fragments of Autobiography in Horace Satires I.Emily Gowers - 2003 - Classical Antiquity 22 (1):55-91.
    Horace's first book of Satires is his poetic debut, and has traditionally been read as a reliable account of the poet's coming of age and arrival in society. Recently, scholars have taken a more skeptical view of the authenticity of this account and have argued that Horace's self-portrait is generically determined, with the author invisible behind a composite of comic stereotypes. Nonetheless, this collection of casual and scattered fragments can, according to a less literal and more flexible definition of autobiography, (...)

  • Greek Local Historiography and its Audiences.Daniel Tober - 2017 - Classical Quarterly 67 (2):460-484.
    In the ninth book of his Ἀτθίς the Athenian historian and religious expert Philochorus related an omen about which he had himself been consulted in the late fourth centuryb.c.e.(FGrHist328 F 67).When this year was done and the next was beginning, there occurred on the Acropolis the following prodigy: a female dog, having entered the temple of Athena Polias and made its way into the Pandroseion, got up on the altar of Zeus Herkeios, which is under the olive tree, and lay (...)

  • An Epitaph For Trimalchio: SAT. 30.2.Ulrike Roth - 2014 - Classical Quarterly 64 (1):422-425.
    Trimalchio's fabulous epitaph, recited in full by Petronius’ colourful host towards the end of the Cena , has long attracted abundant comment. Similarly, allusions to the underworld in much of the decoration leading to and in Trimalchio's dining room have been the object of intense scholarly discussion of the freedman's morbid characterization. In consequence, it is now accepted that epitaph and funereal allusions make for a deliberate mirage of the netherworld – so much so that ‘… Trimalchio's home is in (...)

  • Fundamentos de la literatura egotista: los relatos del yo.Salomé Sola Morales - 2017 - Escritos 25 (55):485-512.
    The aim of the article is to establish which the features of egotistic literature are. In order to achieve such a purpose, the article presents a typology of the genre and describes its main types of works: a) autobiography and memorialistic prose; b) journals, personal diaries, cards and cahiers ; c) biography; and d) life stories. Bearing this in mind, the article suggests a theoretical basis for this particular kind of narratives. At the end, the article presents five conclusions: 1) (...)

  • Ovid's autobiographical poem, Tristia 4.10.Janet Fairweather - 1987 - Classical Quarterly 37 (01):181-.
    Ovid's Tristia4.10 has in the past chiefly been considered as a source of biographical information rather than as a poem, but increasing interest in the poetry of Ovid's exile has now at last started to promote serious efforts to appreciate its literary qualities. The poem presents a formidable challenge to the critic: at first reading it seems a singularly pedestrian account of the poet's life and, although one may adduce plenty of parallels for details in its phrasing elsewhere in the (...)
