Christopher Trinacty investigates selected moments of intertextual dialogue between Seneca's tragedies and the Augustan poets (focusing on Vergil, Horace, and Ovid) in order to develop a better understanding of Senecan poetics. Seneca acts as a reader of the Augustan tradition and incorporates his interpretation of the poetry of his predecessors in his tragedies. Because tragedy is a mélange of different genres, Seneca believes it to be the most effective genre for commenting on the Augustan tradition as a whole.
