This paper compares line 51 of Callimachus' Lock of Berenice (fr. 213 M. = 110 Pf./H.) with its translation by Catullus in lines 51 f. of Poem 66. Catullus' choice of a female narrative voice leads him to change the allusive background of the Greek line. He outlines a new image, which is consistent with some prominent features of both Callimachus' poem and his own poetic output.

Abstract
This paper compares line 51 of Callimachus' Lock of Berenice (fr. 213 M. = 110 Pf./H.) with its translation by Catullus in lines 51 f. of Poem 66. Catullus' choice of a female narrative voice leads him to change the allusive background of the Greek line. He outlines a new image, which is consistent with some prominent features of both Callimachus' poem and his own poetic output.File in questo prodotto:
