Resumen: |
Spica/spiceus is disproportionally prominent in Tibullus in comparison with his contemporaries, appearing in no less than six passages; moreover it is conceptually and contextually significant in all of them. This paper suggests that the prominence of spica/spiceus is due to Tibullus' patron Messalla being an Arval Brother: the principal badge of office of the Fratres Aruales, which they wore at some of their ceremonies, was a spicea corona - cf. Tibullus' corona/ spicea (I 1.16). Some residual problems are noted and some conclusions offered. No disponible. |
