ELEGY AUGUSTUS ELEGÍA AUGUSTO |
| description |
The purpose of this paper is to trace, in the elegiac poems, those elements that, explicitly o implicitly, make a kind of judgment, either negative or positive, about the rus or the urbs. We propose that such values may be considered as an axial system in which the rus is depicted as the space where people acts according to the mores maiorum, while the city is the space of moral corruption. We will demonstrate that it is possible to trace an evolution, in the elegiac texts, in which the representation of the spaces varies, so that at first place we found idyllic images of the rural scene that disappear up to the positive estimation of the urbs. We conclude that, since the moral of the ancestors does not fits with the new, Augustan, Rome, the literary agenda must justify the splendor that is showed in the city streets, so it should not be a target of moral condemnation. |
