The present volume, in tribute to Nicole Methy, brings together 20 contributions, including 4 which were composed by Nicole Methy herself (one of these contributions is unpublished, the other three are hard to find by now). While it contributes to a better understanding of the second century A.D., including Antonine ideology and literary culture of the time, the book focuses on Pliny the Younger. In this respect, it takes into account all the sources: archaeological, numismatic, and of course textual evidence. The Epistles and the Panegyricus of Trajan are explored through several approaches: analysis of themes (health, suffering, mourning, women), but also close reading. The portrayal of various figures (Varro, Nero) is also discussed, and, finally, a study of the reception of Pliny the Younger is provided.

Imitation was central to Roman culture, and a staple of Latin poetry. But it was also fundamental to prose. This book brings together two monuments of the High Empire, Quintilian's Institutio oratoria ('Training of the orator') and Pliny's Epistles, to reveal a spectacular project of textual and ethical imitation. As a young man Pliny had studied with Quintilian. In the Epistles he meticulously transforms and subsumes his teacher's masterpiece, together with poetry and prose ranging from Homer to Tacitus' Dialogus de oratoribus. In teasing apart Pliny's rich intertextual weave, this book reinterprets Quintilian through the eyes of one of his sharpest readers, radically reassesses the Epistles as a work of minute textual artistry, and makes a major intervention in scholarly debates on intertextuality, imitation and rhetorical culture at Rome. The result is a landmark study with far-reaching implications for how we read Latin literature.

L'objet de cette publication n'est pas de tenter un procès en réhabilitation des éléments d'architecture classique ou archaïque, mais bien de rassembler une documentation cohérente pour alimenter une discussion de nature philosophique qui prenne appui sur un exercice d'architecture codifié. Cette publication fait suite à idée d'organiser un concours d'émulation visant à restituer la villa Laurentine que Pline Le Jeune, son propriétaire décrit dans la "Lettre à Gallus". Ce catalogue se termine par une critique des projets contemporains sous forme d'une réflexion sur les rapports entre architecture et archéologie.

This is the first general introduction to Pliny's Letters published in any language, combining close readings with broader context and adopting a fresh and innovative approach to reading the letters as an artistically structured collection. Chapter 1 traces Pliny's autobiographical narrative throughout the Letters; Chapter 2 undertakes detailed study of Book 6 as an artistic entity; while Chapter 3 sets Pliny's letters within a Roman epistolographical tradition dominated by Cicero and Seneca. Chapters 4 to 7 study thematic letter cycles within the collection, including those on Pliny's famous country villas and his relationships with Pliny the Elder and Tacitus. The final chapter focuses on the 'grand design' which unifies and structures the collection. Four detailed appendices give invaluable historical and scholarly context, including a helpful timeline for Pliny's life and career, detailed bibliographical help on over 30 popular topics in Pliny's letters and a summary of the main characters mentioned in the Letters.

Welche Bedeutung kam dem biographischen Wissenssegment im Kontext der Bildungskultur des 2. Jh. n. Chr. zu? Welche Formen wurden von zeitgenössischen Autoren zur literarischen Präsentation von Personen gewählt? Unter dieser doppelten Leitfrage werden hier Personendarstellungen in den Briefen des jüngeren Plinius, dem Miszellanwerk des Gellius und den Kaiserbiographien Suetons in einer gattungsübergreifend angelegten Perspektive untersucht. Zu den Gemeinsamkeiten, die sich auf diese Weise beobachten lassen, gehören das normative Potential historischer Figuren, die Kommemoration von Zeitgenossen und die Interaktion mit den kommunikativen Rahmenbedingungen der römischen Kaiserzeit. Eine solche funktionsgeschichtliche Betrachtungsweise zeigt ferner, dass es sich bei vielen der Charakteristika der untersuchten Autoren, die bislang als Abweichungen von der jeweiligen Gattungstradition kritisiert wurden, um bewusste Entwicklungen handelt, die eng auf ihren gemeinsamen gesellschaftlichen und kulturellen Kontext bezogen sind. What role did biographies play for the intelligentsia of the 2nd century AD? What literary forms were used by contemporary authors in their personal portrayals? These two questions have led to this cross-genre investigation of the personal portraits in the letters of Pliny the Younger, in the miscellaneous work of Gellius, and in the Lives of the Caesars by Suetonius. Among the common features which can thus be observed are the normative potential of historical figures, the commemoration of contemporaries, and the interaction with communicative conditions of the Roman Empire. Such a functional and historical perspective further demonstrates that many of the characteristics of the featured authors, which to date have been seen as deviations from the genre tradition, are, in actuality, conscious developments, closely related to the authors' common social and cultural background.
