Ausónio, Mosella 389 e Propércio 3, 1, 13 : Intertextualidade e programa literário

Abstract

This article purports to demonstrate that Ausonius’ subtle allusion to Propertius 3, 1,13 in Mosella 389 sheds light on his literary intentions and helps to reinstate him as a creative poet who makes intelligent use of Hellenistic poetics (albeit filtered through the Augustan poets) in an age generally considered lacking in artistic vitality.
