Abstract

This paper takes in account some verses of Theognis’ elegies quoted by the Progymnasmata (Ps. Hermogenes, Aphthonius, Nicolaus, Priscianus) in order to reconstruct the success of these sayings in ancient literature and to understand for what purposes this poetic model is strangely reused in the rhetorical handbooks.
