Mirto y ajenjo en la poesía romana

En este trabajo se analizan las características literarias y los valores simbólicos que los autores antiguos, sobre todo romanos, les han asignado a las flores en general y al mirto en concreto, para después abordar el simbolismo del ajenjo, bastante menos fecundo en la poesía. Finalmente se hace especial hincapié en Ovidio, pues en él se produciría por primera vez la intencionada oposición entre una y otra planta.The purpose of this paper is to analyze the literary traits and the symbolic values that ancient authors, especially Roman authors, gave to flowers in general and to mirtle in particular. Later, I will turn to the symbolism of wormwood, much less used in poetry. Finally, I will concentrate on Ovid, because it is in his work where the intentional opposition between one plant and the other is found

La autobiografía poética en Roma: un caso singular (Ov.Trist.4.10)

Con este trabajo pretendemos incidir en algunos aspectos literarios que la crítica ha dejado habitualmente de lado a la hora de analizar Tristia 4.10, tales como, por ejemplo, su particularidad argumental y formal, tan cercana al género biográfico –sobre todo a las vidas de poetas–, o la importancia de ubicarla en el conjunto de elegías que conforman Tristia. Estos aspectos la erigen probablemente como la primera autobiografía poética de la literatura romana.The purpose of this paper is to focus on various literary aspects routinely ignored by critics in the analysis of Tristia 4.10, such as, for example, its argumental and formal particularity, with characteristics quite nearly those of the genre of bigraphy –mainly the lives of poets–, or the importance of understanding its place among the collection of elegies that constitute Tristia. these aspects probably make it the first poetic autobiography in roman literature

Proverbios y sentencias en Historia Apollonii Regis Tyri

The Story of Apollonius King of Tyre is an anonymous account from the 5th or 6th century A.D., often considered as pertaining to the adventure genre. It is not a work of high literary quality: on the contrary, the Latin used is rather poor and full of repetitions and inconsistencies. However, this novella greatly influenced subsequent literature, perhaps owing to its popular nature which gives it a certain degree of timelessness. The proverbs included in the book are further evidence of such popularity. We believe their study provides interesting information and sheds some light on some of the questions surrounding this literary work
