▼ This thesis demonstrates that Lucan’s Bellum Ciuile takes epic to a new level, testing the generic paradigm, because Rome’s civil war is a new subject for epic poetry. Lucan’s epic presents civil war as the self-destruction of republican Rome, and close reading reveals the poem’s intricate relationship with Homeric, Virgilian and Ovidian epic. We see that it changes and exaggerates characteristic tropes of the genre, by techniques such as delay, digression and frequent intervention by a complex narrator / persona, whose dramatic intrusions are like the speeches of characters in a tragedy. Such a politically risky subject, a type of impious war where Romans fight against and kill Romans, necessitates a long preamble and an insistent narrator’s voice to justify poetic commemoration of such a crime. Unlike earlier epic where civil war is rare or treated only as an unfortunate but necessary prelude to peace, Lucan’s poem is wholly taken up with this type of internecine war, the civil war between Caesar and Pompey. It also includes the civil wars of Marius and Sulla, introduced as a mise en abyme to intensify this subject, which suggests the predictability of recurring civil war and ideas of persistent political instability. Lucan’s poem offers a detailed portrayal of the sea-battle at Massilia, and paradoxically, this inventive battle is the most ‘epic’ of its civil war battles, because many conventions of epic land battles are applied to this conflict on ships. Lucan’s sea-battle re-presents and revitalises epic topoi by their new location, the sea. The episode concerning Hercules and Antaeus is also an example of a mise en abyme, reflecting the focus of Lucan’s poem, the idea that civil war degrades both sides equally. It argues that the wrestling match between Hercules and Antaeus illustrates how participants in combat become similar and assume corresponding characteristics. This episode shows how the poem interacts with its own past battle narrative, relates to accounts of conflict in earlier epic, and reflects Roman gladiatorial spectacle. Lucan’s paradoxical poem presents the battle at Pharsalus more symbolically than a typical epic battle narrative. Rhetorical praeteritio of the unspeakable wounds, weapons and forms of death in civil war draws a parallel between the human body and the state of Rome. Lucan’s epic stretches the limits of the genre to overcome the difficulty of recounting Romans fighting against fellow Romans in civil war and demonstrates that there is more to this type of war than blood and guts and gruesome mutilation. Lucan’s poem is evidence for how much has been and how much more can be articulated through the language and tropes of epic.

▼ I examine Roman ideas of public and private and their relationship to the conception of absolute power. My study synthesizes a wide range of literary and material sources, including tragedy, epic, philosophy, historiography, and the novel, as well as Roman palatial architecture, domestic frescoes, and visual depictions of the Julio-Claudian family. I define privacy as the ability to avoid scrutiny and to act without public consequence, and I argue that lack of privacy became central to understanding the emperor’s role in the early imperial period. Focusing on the public/private dichotomy reveals the complexity of the conception of power relations in the mid-first century CE. While the significance of the imperial domus in political life has been a prominent concern in recent scholarship, I focus on how the public/private dichotomy illuminates the relationship between ruler and ruled: the publicity of the ruler makes him uniquely vulnerable, and this vulnerability threatens the community as a whole. I argue that the ruler is not only an all-powerful father figure, but also a potential target, vulnerable to those closest to him and to the community at large. Furthermore, the vulnerability of the ruler is a concern both for him and for the security of the community. Ultimately, one-man rule produces an intimacy between ruler and ruled that results in the transformation or disruption of all other bonds between members of the polity. I first examine exposure to public view as the defining feature of the ruler’s position in Seneca’s Apocolocyntosis and On Clemency and in Nero’s palace (the Golden House) and the implications of this exposure for the life of the community. Next, using domestic frescoes with theatrical imagery and Seneca’s Thyestes and Agamemnon, I focus on the ruler’s need to be seen and thus his dependence on and vulnerability to his subordinates. Then, drawing on dynastic sculpture groups, domestic art and architecture, Tacitus’ Annals, Seneca’s tragedies, Petronius’ Satyricon, and Lucan’s Civil War, I analyze the relationship between the house and family of the ruler and the wider community and how the rise of one-man rule creates a new kind of communal identity.

▼ The power of dreams to command action and signify the future was a matter of widespread belief in antiquity. Frequently regarded as ambiguous, dreams issued a hermeneutic call that came to be associated with the interpretation of poetry. Epic narrative manifests an awareness of this association, the impetus for which resides with the Homeric poems wherein dreams not only foreshadow and forward action but also call attention to the poet's narrative strategies. This study examines the inheritance of this tradition at Rome and elucidates the novel ways in which Roman poets exploit the cultural bias toward seeing meaning in dreams and the inclination to align such meaning with poetic meaning. Close readings of the dreams of Dido in Vergil's Aeneid, Alcyone in Ovid's Metamorphoses, and Pompey in Lucan's Bellum Civile center on interaction between the dream event and modes of figuration. Conflating Homeric models for supernatural visitation, Ovid crosses a ghostly apparition with the personified figure of a dream divinity to produce a textured sequence of messages which are, for their verbal plays, as much about the poet's craft as they are effective for events in the story. Personification gives the dream a figured role in the narrative. Vergil and Lucan capitalize on the symbolic nature of the dream to transform it from an event into a poetic image that comments on the story's action. Enhanced by a simile, the dream becomes a subject for and a tool of interpretation. Figuration of the dream in these poems further reveals the diversification of an active tradition for the subject matter and narrative form of Roman epic. Vergil foregrounds the tragic ethos and structure of Aeneid 4; Ovid blurs the line between epic and amatory story; Lucan subverts historical narrative to epic. This study also exposes two patterns of signification in the use of dream metaphors and similes. First, by distending rhetorical constructs poets render the reader's difficulty in apprehending meaning a productive vehicle for illustration. Second, poets draw on a dream's capacity to distort reality as a means for heightening poetic meaning and illustrating their own fictions. Advisors/Committee Members: Hinds, Stephen E.

▼ This dissertation provides a new examination of the figure of Cato within Lucan's epic poem Bellum Civile by focusing on the theme of memory within the epic and its interaction with Cato's character specifically. It argues that one may read the epic as possessing the rhetorical function of a literary funeral monumentum, the purpose of which is to retell the death of Rome in the Roman Civil War, mourn its passing, and yet in so doing simultaneously preserve its memory so that future generations may remember the liberty Rome once possessed and may be influenced by that memory to action. In this reading, the epic itself – like Cato within the epic – offers a counter-memory of what the civil wars meant to Rome in competition with that promoted by Caesar and his descendants. This study centers upon the speech of Cato found in Book 2 in which Cato states his two major goals for participation in the civil war: successfully commemorate a perishing Roma et Libertas and transform his own defeat into a self-sacrifice that is beneficial to his fellow Romans. The opening chapters place Cato's speech into its larger context by arguing that it is an integral part of a narrative arc spanning most of the first two books. The image of national suicide within the epic's proem reveals that gaining victory in civil war is what assures self-defeat. This economy of universal defeat pervades Lucan's epic and stands as the greatest threat facing Cato in the successful achievement of his goals. Lucan also shows that the very nature of civil war poses a threat to the viability of memory, as evidenced by scenes in which Roman soldiers and citizens forget and abandon the social ties that bind their identity to that of Rome. Cato's speech illustrates that his chosen weapon against the epic's economy of defeat will be the power of memory. A careful analysis of the speech reveals that Cato's desired goal of enacting a self-sacrifice – a nod to his future suicidal martyrdom at Utica – can transform him into a monumentum of `Old Rome' (the pre-Caesarian Rome that still retained its libertas) which will in turn ensure his second goal of achieving funeral commemoration of what Rome used to be – and could still be again. The closing chapter examines key passages in Book 9 in which the power of memory is explicitly connected with renewal even in the midst of defeat, suggesting that Cato's (and the epic's) mission to preserve memory can be ultimately successful. This reading of Lucan's Cato has the benefit of showing that his success need no longer be based mainly upon whether or not he can be a virtuous sapiens but also upon what he can actually do for future generations of Romans by preserving the powerful memory of a Rome that still possessed her freedom from the Caesars.

Die Untersuchung von Unterweltsszenen in der lateinischen Literatur, besonders aber nicht nur im lateinischen Epos, hat in den letzten Jahren viel Interesse gewonnen. Dabei kam vorrangig expliziten Katabasis- bzw. Nekromantieszenen das Hauptaugenmerk zu, allerdings wurden auch „geringere“ Unterweltsszenen und solche, die lediglich Anleihen aus derartigen Beschreibungen nehmen, immer wieder berücksichtigt. In dieser Arbeit wird gezeigt, wie neben den bekannten topographischen Unterweltselementen (Höhle, dunkler Hain, Sumpf, etc.) auch das Meer als eine eigene Art der Unterwelt im lateinischen Epos entworfen wird, insbesondere wie in Seesturmszenen die Grenzen zwischen Ober- und Unterwelt vermischt werden. Untersucht wurden dabei der Sturm in der Erzählung von Ceyx und Alcyone aus Ovids Metamorphosen (Buch 11), die versuchte Überfahrt Caesars über die Adria von Chaonien nach Brindisi (und die vorangehende Flaute) in Lucans Bellum ciuile (Buch 5), sowie Seestürme, denen die Argonauten ausgesetzt sind: Dies ist einerseits eine kurze Sturmszene zu Beginn der Argonautica des Valerius Flaccus (Buch 1) sowie ein weiterer Sturm bei der Ankunft auf Lemnos in der Thebais des Statius (Buch 5). Gegenstand der Arbeit ist die Frage, wie diese Unwetterszenen bzw. Szenen auf dem Meer in Verbindung mit Abstiegen in die Unterwelt stehen, auf welche antiken Vorbilder sich die Autoren für ihre Darstellung der See als eigener Form des Jenseits stützen und wie stark diese Szenen auch intertextuell miteinander in Verbindung stehen. Die ausgewählten Autoren tun dies in unterschiedlichem Ausmaß und auf verschiedene Weise, doch zeigt sich, dass sich die antike Wahrnehmung des Meeres als eigene Unterwelt auch in der Literatur wiederfinden lässt.

Research on underworld scenes in Latin literature (foremost but not only in Latin epics) has aroused great interest as of late. Subject to this research have predominantly been scenes depicting a catabasis or necromancy, respectively, yet also “lesser” underworld scenes and ones that merely feature elements of such descriptions have, however, also been taken into consideration. This thesis shows how among other better-known topographic elements of the netherworld (cave, murky copse, marshlands, etc.) the sea as well is treated as its own kind of underworld in Latin epics and particularly how in sea storm scenes the boundaries between the mortal world and the otherworld are being blurred and exceeded. The subjects of my investigations were the storm in the episode of Ceyx and Alcyone in Ovid’s Metamorphoses (book 11), Caesar’s attempted crossing of the Adriatic from Chaonia to Brindisi (and the preceding calm) in Lucan’s Bellum ciuile (book 5), as well as sea storms affecting the Argonauts: These being a brief storm scene at the very beginning of Valerius Flaccus’ Argonautica (book 1) on the one hand and another storm upon the arrival at Lemnos in Statius’ Thebaid (book 5) on the other. The issue of this thesis is the question, how said tempest scenes (or scenes on the sea, respectively) are linked…

Fondée sur la polysémie du terme latin uates, notre thèse se propose d’étudier les rapports entre poésie et prophétie dans la Pharsale de Lucain. Depuis l’Antiquité, le prophète est à la fois celui qui annonce l’avenir et celui qui parle au nom d’un tiers, souvent d’un dieu. D’abord, nous proposons une typologie des figures de prophètes dans la Pharsale en les comparant avec les prophètes de la tradition littéraire, en particulier issue de l’épopée et de la tragédie. Trois types de prophètes apparaissent chez Lucain : les prophètes omniscients, les prophètes utilisant une discipline divinatoire (astrologie, haruspicine, enthousiasme…) et les prophètes doués d’une inspiration infernale. Ensuite, la parole prophétique des personnages est comparée à celle, oraculaire, du narrateur épique. Nous proposons une étude des prolepses narratives de l’épopée en lien avec l’histoire de Rome, et en particulier avec l’histoire des guerres civiles. Ainsi, Lucain construit une vision cyclique de l’histoire. Après avoir défini la matière prophétique dans la parole du narrateur, nous analysons son style prophétique du point du vue narratologique et stylistique. Enfin, nous passons d’une poétique à une métapoétique de la prophétie chez Lucain. En effet, les personnages de prophètes constituent des mandataires du poète dont ils sont les porte-voix, au sens étymologique de prophète. Les prophètes lucaniens sont donc chargés de délivrer un Art poétique, conformément à la vision du monde de l’auteur. Cette dernière se traduit par une esthétique de la rupture qui s’applique au macrocosme céleste, au microcosme organique et à l’hexamètre épique.

Starting from the double meaning of the latin word uates, this study aims to define the links between poetry and prophecy in Lucan’s Pharsalia. Since Antiquity indeed, the prophet has been both a soothsayer and a person speaking for somebody else, especially for a god. First, we build a typology of the prophetic figures in the Pharsalia and we compare them with literary characters from epic and tragedy. Lucan conjures three kinds of prophets : omniscient ones, prophets who use divinatory technics (e.g. astrology, haruspicy, enthusiasm) and those whose inspiration comes from the Underworld. We then look at the prophetic speeches delivered by the characters against the oracular voice of the epic narrator. We study narrative prolepses of the epic that anticipate Roman history (especially the history of the Civil Wars), and through which Lucan offers a cyclical vision of history. After defining the prophetic matter of the narrative voice, we analyse Lucan’s prophetic manner from a narratological and a stylistic perspective. Lastly, we switch from a poetic definition of prophetic voices in the Pharsalia to a metapoetic study. The prophet characters indeed serve as surrogates of the poet and literally utter his voice, thus referring to the etymology of the word. The role of Lucan’s prophets is therefore to formulate an Ars poetica, in accordance with the poet’s Weltanschauung – a vision articulated by an…

▼ Lucan’s Bellum Civile is a commentary upon and criticism of the Neronian principate and the deteriorated Roman character of the first century. The poet’s success would be marked initially by imperial censorship, followed by his avowed involvement in the Pisonian conspiracy, the inevitable result of which was Lucan’s death sentence in 65 A.D. In his epic Lucan laments the state of Roman citizenship that has precipitated the fall of the Republic. The true Roman, the hero that would sacrifice all for the state, is absent from the poem. Instead the promotion of the individual, effected by military and political successes among foreign peoples at and beyond the edges of empire, has dismantled simultaneously the ethnic construct of the Roman. To underscore this loss of native Roman identity Lucan employs various non-Roman ethnic models when developing the characters of Caesar, Pompey, and Cato. The stereotypical traits of the European Gaul, the Asiatic despot, and the North African nomad, as generated by such sources as Polybius and Cato the Elder, structure the character of Lucan’s protagonists. They have divested themselves of their Roman aspects and assumed rather those of the peoples among whom they produced their public strength. No longer can this be seen as a legitimate civil war fought between Romans for Rome. Instead these leaders have become as foreigners, each posing a distinct threat to the state. These three men, representative of the poet’s tripartite world view, enact the promised destruction that will leave the empty city of Rome to be rushed and occupied by the foreign enemies that had so long been held at bay. Lucan’s ethnographic characterizations of his heroes are illustrative of his disaffection with a Rome that has been abandoned by its protectors. Even the poet, upon recounting Caesar’s desecration of the temple to Saturn, is unable to return in thought or narrative to the city. Instead he, his audience, his poem, and his characters are condemned to wander far from the security and strength that was once the bounty of Republican Rome.

▼

Le texte du Bellum ciuile n'a pas fait l'objet, en France, d'une nouvelle édition ou d'une traduction complète depuis celle parue à la CUF entre 1927 et 1930. Ce phénomène est d'autant plus surprenant qu'à la fin du XXème siècle et au début du XXIème siècle ont été réalisées des éditions en langue anglaise, allemande et italienne. La présente thèse tente donc de pallier ce manque en proposant une édition, une traduction et un commentaire du livre II de la Pharsale. Après une brève présentation des éléments d'introduction au texte qui touchent à l'auteur, à son œuvre ainsi qu'à des spécificités du livre II de la Pharsale, le premier tome de ce travail est consacré à l'histoire du texte de Lucain. Il apparaît que la tradition manuscrite du Bellum ciuile est complexe et qu'il n'est pas possible d'établir de stemma classant les manuscrits. Bien plus, la contamination manifeste de la tradition manuscrite ne signifie pas que l'état général du texte tel qu'il a été conservé est bon : au contraire, il existe de très nombreux passages obscurs dans le texte de Lucain. Le texte établi dans le présent travail ne repose donc pas uniquement sur la tradition directe de la Pharsale : il s'appuie également sur une vaste étude de la tradition indirecte et surtout sur la consultation des nombreuses conjectures qui ont été formulées pour tenter de mieux comprendre le texte de Lucain. Le texte latin et sa traduction sont suivis, dans un second volume, d'un commentaire linéaire. Celui-ci regroupe des discussions philologiques sur l'établissement du texte, mais aussi des considérations littéraires et stylistiques ainsi que des explications visant à éclaircir les allusions savantes du poète.

Lucan's epic has not been edited nor translated in France since Bourgery's edition published between 1927 and 1930. This fact is surprising considering that English, German and Italian scholars did such a work at the end of the 20th century and at the beginning of the 21st century. These two present volumes try to compensate this lack in contemporary French scholarship by furnishing a new edition, translation and commentary of Bellum ciuile's book 2. The first volume begins with an introduction to Lucan, to his epic and to some of the distinctive features of book 2, followed by an history of Lucan's text transmission. Pharsalia's textual tradition is complex and it is not possible to make a stemmatic recension fo the manuscripts. Moreover, the obvious contamination of Lucan's tradition does not imply that we are facing a well transmitted text : quite the opposite, many lines of the Bellum ciuile are certainly corrupted. The text established in this work doesn't rely on nothing but manuscripts of Pharsalia : I used as well the indirect tradition and, most importantly, the numerous conjectures made since the 15th century to improve the understand of Lucan's text. In the second volume of this work, the Latin text and its translation are followed by a line by line commentary. It is composed by critical discussion about text establishment, comments about…

▼ Landscape in Roman literature is manifest with symbolic potential: in particular, Vergil and Ovid respond to ideologically loaded representations of abundance in nature that signal the dawn of the Augustan golden age. Vergil's Eclogues foreground a locus amoenus landscape which articulates both the hopes of the new age as well as the political upheaval that accompanied the new political regime; Ovid uses the same topography in order to suggest the arbitrary and capricious use of power within a deceptively idyllic landscape. Moreover, for Latin poets, depictions of landscape are themselves sites for poetic reflection as evidenced by the discussion of landscape ecphrases in Horace's Ars Poetica. My thesis focuses upon the depiction and refiguration of the locus amoenus landscape in the post-Augustan epics of the first century AD: Lucan's Bellum Civile, Valerius Flaccus' Argonautica, Statius' Thebaid and Silius Italicus' Punica. Landscape in these poems retains the moral, political and metapoetic force evident in the Augustan archetypes. However, I suggest that Lucan's Neronian Bellum Civile fundamentally refigures the landscapes of Latin epic poetry, inscribing the locus amoenus with the nefas of civil war in such a manner that it redefines the perception of landscape in the succeeding Flavian poets. Lucan perverts the landscape, making the locus horridus, a landscape of horror, fear and disgust, the predominant landscape of Latin epic; consequently, the poems of Valerius, Statius and Silius engage with Lucan's refiguration of landscape as a means of expressing the horror of civil war. In the first part of my thesis I examine archetypal landscapes, including those of the Augustan poets and Lucan's Bellum Civile. Taking an approach which engages with literary reception theory and the concept of the â horizon of expectationâ as a framework within which literary topographies can be understood as articulating a response to the thematics of civil war, in the second part of my thesis I demonstrate the manner in which landscapes represent a coherent and paradigmatic response to Lucan's imposition of his civil war narrative within the literary landscape of Roman literature.
