Impressionam até hoje a prosa moral de Cícero, a irreverência lírica de Catulo, a grandiosidade épica de Virgílio, o rigor formal de Horácio, a ousadia contemporânea de Ovídio e a potência filosófica e trágica de Sêneca, só para citar alguns dos grandes nomes dessa literatura abrangente. É desse último autor de textos filosóficos, dramáticos e satíricos que vamos tratar na presente publicação. Lúcio Aneu Sêneca é um dos escritores mais lidos e comentados da literatura latina. Seus textos têm conteúdo atemporal por tratarem da alma humana, dos problemas que a afligem em qualquer época, e por servirem de conselheiros aos espíritos atormentados pelas questões existenciais. É fato que nascera numa época privilegiada e que tirara disso grande proveito: após a chamada Idade de Ouro da literatura latina, em que figuraram poetas de obras imortais, tais como Virgílio, Horácio, Propércio, Tibulo e Ovídio.

Magis rythmus quam metron : the structure of Seneca's anapaests, and the oral/aural nature of Latin poetry 1 Lieven Danckaert, Ghent University Abstract The aim of this contribution is twofold. The empirical focus is the metrical structure of Seneca's anapaestic odes. On the basis of a detailed formal analysis, in which special attention is paid to the delimitation and internal structure of metrical periods, I argue against the dimeter colometry traditionally assumed. This conclusion in turn is based on a second, more methodological claim, namely that in establishing the colometry of an ancient piece of poetry, the modern metrician is only allowed to set apart a given string of metrical elements as a separate metron, colon or period, if this postulated metrical entity could 'aurally' be distinguished as such by the hearer.

  • Antigone's Pietas in Seneca's Phoenissae
    Don’t Stand So Close To Me: Antigone’s Pietas in Seneca’s Phoenissae Critics have long noted that Seneca foregrounds the theme of incest in his Theban dramas to a greater degree than previous authors (Fantham 1983; Hirschberg 1987; Barchiesi 1988; Frank 1995; Boyle 2011). In fact, the Oedipus of the Phoenissae – wandering in exile with his daughter Antigone – opens the play with fears about replicating his past sins with his daughter (timeo post matrem omnia, Phoen. 50). And yet despite the persistence of this theme, Seneca’s Antigone is often read as an unpolluted, singular exemplum of filial fidelity separate from her nefanda domus’ incestuous patterns (Paul 1953; Fantham 1983; Hirschberg 1987; Barchiesi 1988; Frank 1995; Mader 2010). This paper challenges this pervasive assumption by investigating how Seneca rewrites Antigone’s legendary pietas. In particular, I argue that Seneca manipulates the language of elegiac devotion to create out of Antigone’s pledges of fidelity a disturbing scene of would-be seduction that threatens to realize Oedipus’ fears. In doing so, I shed new light on how Seneca reclaims a canonical figure from the literary tradition for his own poetic program. Seneca follows tradition by having Antigone pledge to be Oedipus’s eternal companion in exile. Nevertheless, her description of their future wanderings blends this well-known aspect of the Theban legend with a further topos from Latin erotic poetry: the amator’s pledge to follow the beloved anywhere (Phoen. 61-73; cf. Prop.2.26B.29-44; Tib.1.4.41-56; Verg.Ecl.10; Ov.Am.1.9.9-16, Am.2.16.19ff and McKeown 1987 vol 2.

  • Andrea Balbo RICOGNIZIONI SUL TEMA DELLA FORTUNA IN
    © SpazioFilosofico 2014 – ISSN: 2038-6788 Andrea Balbo RICOGNIZIONI SUL TEMA DELLA FORTUNA IN SENECA Abstract The essay aims at providing an update regarding the scientific acquisitions concerning the term and concept of fortune in Seneca, and highlights the importance of this theme in Seneca’s thinking by describing the main features of this theme and suggesting some possible paths for deepening the inquiry. 1. Cenni etimologici e panorama degli studi* Prima di esaminare il concetto di fortuna in Seneca, è opportuno definirne in generale il valore e il significato. Il nome, legato a fors, fortis e derivato dal verbo fero attraverso una radice in –u *fortus1, è uno degli esempi canonici di vox media, ovvero di vocabolo che può assumere valenze positive o negative. Come nota O. Hey nella voce del Thesaurus linguae Latinae,2 fortuna può significare effectus vel vis rerum casu vel fortuito accidentium, τύχη, sors, casus; quando ha valenza negativa può significare res adversae e infelicitas; se invece ha valore positivo res secundae, felicitas. L’area semantica su cui insiste il termine è estremamente vasta e va dalla connotazione di ciò che accade per caso alla definizione di una forza che agisce condizionando la realtà umana, all’idea della sorte, che può risultare buona o cattiva a seconda delle circostanze. La pregnanza del vocabolo – e anche la sua irriducibilità a ogni semplificazione semantica – è confermata dalla ricchezza di relazioni con altri concetti come casus3, condicio, eventus, fatum, felicitas, sors, status (rapporti di analogia), animus, natura, ratio virtus, voluntas (rapporti di opposizione). Fortuna è poi vocabolo di natura religiosa e identifica a Roma e nel mondo laziale e italico una figura divina dai contorni variegati, parallela alla divinità nota in greco come Tyche4.

Philologia Classica 2020, 15 (1), 88–95. https://doi.org/10.21638/spbu20.2020.107 This paper aims to revise the status quaestionis of the title of a play by Seneca preserved in two commonly recognised variants — Phoenissae and Thebais — and two less well-known vari- ants — Phoenissa and Antigona. It has been generally accepted that only the title Phoenissae is correct, and that this title was modelled on Euripides’ drama of the name. This view, however, can hardly be deemed plausible, considering the substantial differences between Seneca’s and Euripides’ Phoenissae. Moreover, it has been widely held that there is no analogy for the title Thebais in the dramatic tradition but that it has equivalents in epic texts, which has led to the conclusion that Thebais is an ill-chosen interpolation. The other variants of the title have not been discussed at all. In this article we scrutinise previously disregarded sources and argue that all the play’s titles may have originated in Classical Antiquity and may be regarded as synonyms.

  • PHOENISSAE Marica Frank D Phoenissae, the Title by Which The
    PHOENISSAE Marica Frank Dating Phoenissae, the title by which the play is generally known, is taken from the E MSS; in the A MSS the play is entitled Thebais, a name associated with epic rather than tragedy. Although absolute dates cannot be assigned to any of Seneca’s dramas, there are several good reasons to believe that Phoenissae was Seneca’s last play. First, there are stylistic considerations. On the basis of Fitch’s hypothesis that the frequency of mid-line sense-pauses is indicative of a dramatist’s con dence with the meter, Phoenissae would seem to be Seneca’s last play. Fitch’s discovery that the shortening of the nal -o, particularly in the rst person singular of present and future active verbs, occurs more often in Phoenissae than in any of the other dramas, supports this chronology (Fitch 1981: 290f., 303–305). Second, Phoenissae treats the Theban legend in a unique way, combining the story of Oedipus in exile with the conict of Eteocles and Polyneices over the kingship of Thebes in a way that highlights and contrasts the roles of the parents, Oedipus and Jocasta. Such an innovative treatment of the legendary material suggests the con dence of a seasoned tragedian. Third, there is the play’s state of incompletion: it consists of only 664 lines of iambic trimeter, and lacks both a chorus and a nal act.1 It seems plausible that Seneca, having already written a conventional Oedipus play in which Oedipus blinds himself, Jocasta commits suicide, and Oedipus stumbles of into exile, embarked on an adventurous literary experiment.
