Abstract

Nach der Schlacht von Actium entwickelte sich im Imperium Romanum der Prinzipat als neues Herrschaftssystem, das bis zur Regierung Trajans (98–117 n. Chr.) voll ausgebildet war und die Mitglieder der senatorischen Elite vor enorme Herausforderungen stellte. Denn während der permanente Konkurrenzkampf um Macht und Einfluss unter den höchsten aristokratischen Funktionsträgern des Imperiums keineswegs geringer geworden war, musste nun in allen Bereichen der Princeps als die systembeherrschende Größe stets mitberücksichtigt werden. Insbesondere die Analyse der literarischen Selbstdarstellung der beiden Senatoren Tacitus und Plinius gibt dabei Aufschluss über mögliche Strategien, wie durch die Affirmation der trajanischen Herrschaftsdarstellung und die gleichzeitige Distanzierung die Unabhängigkeit der Senatoren weiterhin behauptet sowie die Authentizität ihrer Schriften gewahrt werden konnte. So entstehen zwischen Princeps und Res Publica zwei eindrückliche senatorische Selbstbildnisse, deren Autoren sich als selbstbewusste Systemträger zu inszenieren wissen. Literatur erscheint in diesem Kontext nicht zuletzt als ein Instrument im Konkurrenzkampf einer hochkompetitiven imperialen Elite.

Abstract

In this book on intertextuality in Pliny the Younger, Professor Marchesi invites an alternative reading of Pliny's collection of private epistles: the letters are examined as the product of an authorial strategy controlling both the rhetorical fabric of individual units and their arrangement in the collection. By inserting recognisable fragments of canonical authors into his epistles, Pliny imports into the still fluid practice of letter-writing the principles of composition and organisation that for his contemporaries characterised other writings as literature. Allusions become the occasion for a metapoetic dialogue, especially with the collection's privileged addressee, Tacitus. An active participant in the cultural politics of his time, Pliny entrusts to the letters his views on poetry, oratory and historiography. In defining a model of epistolography alternative to Cicero's and complementing those of Horace, Ovid and Seneca, he also successfully carves a niche for his work in the Roman literary canon.

Abstract

Pliny's Women provides a comprehensive consideration of the many women who appear in the letters of Pliny the Younger. Combining detailed prosopography with close literary analysis, Jacqueline Carlon examines the identities of the women whom Pliny includes and how they and the men with whom they are associated contribute both to this presentation of exemplary Romans and particularly to his own self-promotion. Virtually all of the named women in Pliny's nine-book corpus are considered. They form six distinct groups: those associated with opposition to the principate; the family of Pliny's mentor, Corellius Rufus; his own family members; women involved in testamentary disputes; ideal wives; and women of unseemly character. Detailed analysis of each letter mentioning women includes the identity of its recipient and everyone named within, its disposition within the collection, Pliny's language and style, and its significance to our perception of the changing social fabric of the early principate.
