Abstract:This article examines how Horace applies an erotic, specifically pederastic, model to amicitia in Epistles 1, focusing on those poems that sexualize the patron/client relationship and the production of poetry: 1.1, 1.17, 1.18, 1.19, and 1.20. I argue that Horace reassesses what constitutes virtus, "manliness," in Augustan Rome. Whereas Horace opens the collection by insisting on an uncompromisingly penetrative formulation of masculinity, the last poems show him moderating this stance, opening up a space between domination and submission through which Roman viri can maintain their masculine prerogatives while navigating complexly hierarchical patronal and imperial structures.

Fecitne Viriliter？贺拉斯中的赞助、情色和阳刚之气，书信 1

摘要：本文研究了贺拉斯如何将色情的，特别是 pederastic 模型应用于书信 1 中的 amicitia，重点关注那些将赞助人/客户关系和诗歌生产性化的诗歌：1.1、1.17、1.18、1.19 和 1.20。我认为贺拉斯重新评估了奥古斯都罗马的 virtus，“男子气概”的构成。尽管贺拉斯通过坚持对男性气质的不妥协、透彻的表述来开启这个系列，但最后几首诗表明他缓和了这种立场，在统治和服从之间开辟了一个空间，罗马人可以通过这个空间维持他们的男性特权，同时驾驭复杂的等级制度的父权和帝国结构。
