Essai sur la société des épigrammes de Martial
This essay of literary prosopography is devoted to a limited series of Martial’s epigrams, whose sociability is well known; it seeks to specify the place of several partners of this work like Terentius Priscus and Iulius Martialis, like Faustinus, like the thirty-four-year-old friend Iulius, and Frontinus. He suggests multiple new identifications and insists on the merging of the obvious realism and the less easily discernible symbolic imagination, which settle down in certain places such as some sites in the city of seven hills or, further away, in Ateste’s, Patavium’s, and Aquileia’s Veneti, in Tolosa’s Narbonnaise, in Corduba’s Spains and in the Celtiberian Bilbilis.
