Abstract

The main purpose of this study is to realize a linguistic-literary and comparative analysis between book III of the Aeneid, by Virgil, and the satire 2.8, by Horace, aiming to identify the resources used in the epic that reinstate the elements presented in the referred satire. We intend to understand how the catastrophic scenario of Nasidienus’ feast, hostile host, of vicious behaviors, that figures in the satire 2.8, is restated in the book III of the Aeneid, in which Aeneas is constantly interrupted by Celeno, thus preventing the hero's attempts to hold a sacred dinner on the site to found the New Troy. Therefore, we will work with our instrumental translation of the excerpts that are relevant for the analysis, and we will use the theoretical contribution of Carratore (1962), D'Onofrio (1968), Oliveira (2014), and others, which will help us to perceive characteristics specific to each of the texts that we will analyze, and the intertextuality that links them.
