True Friendship: Ennius and Other Poets in Catullus 116
Transactions of the American Philological Association Pub Date : 2021-05-01
Jesse Hill

summary:

This paper offers a new reading of Catullus's last poem. It argues against the current consensus that Catullus therein parodies both his recipient Gellius and his predecessor Ennius as hackish "anti-Callimacheans." Catullus 116 is rather, on the literal level, an indignant complaint to a false friend and fellow neoteric poet; and, on the figurative level, a programmatic statement of its author's Ennian-Callimachean poetics. To Catullus and his addressee, Ennius is a learned author in the Hellenistic tradition, whose influence alternately converges with and acts as a vector for the influence of Callimachus.

真正的友谊:恩努斯和卡图卢斯的其他诗人116

概括:

本文提供了卡图卢斯最后一首诗的新读物。它反对目前的共识,即其中的卡图卢斯(Catullus)嘲笑他的接受者格利乌斯(Gellius)和他的前任埃尼乌斯(Ennius)都是骇人听闻的“反Callimacheans”。从字面上看,卡图卢斯116是对一个虚假的朋友和现代诗人的愤慨。在比喻的层面上,以编程的方式陈述了作者的《恩尼-卡里马切安诗学》。对于卡图卢斯和他的收件人来说,恩尼乌斯是希腊文化传统的博学多才的作家,他的影响力交替出现并与卡利马丘斯人的影响力交织在一起。
