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together 20 contributions, including 4 which were composed by Nicole Methy herself (one of these contributions is unpublished, the other three are hard to find by now).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.
