The Topic of the Pax Romana in Tibullus’ Elegy I.10: the Condemnation ofWar and the Invitation to Live Peacefully and the invitation to live peacefully.
Keywords:
Pax, Tibullus, elegy, warAbstract
The purpose of this paper is to analyse the construction of the topic of the Pax Romana in Tibullus’ elegy I.10. The hypothesis proposed is that the poet vindicates and promotes Roman peace while declaring his opposition to war, thus positioning himself as one of the Augustan poets of his time. To prove this, a philological-comparative approach will be employed, taking into account both the study of the text from a classical philological perspective and its comparison with other elegies of the Corpus Tibullianum (especially I.1 and I.3) and with poetry during the Pax Augusta period (such as the works of Virgil and Horace), in order to trace thematic and formal continuities and variations and to position Tibullus in the literary context of his time.
