The author of [Tibullus] 3.19 and 3.20: anonymous or Tibullus?
- Abstract:
- Poem 3.19 in the Tibullian corpus names Tibullus as the 'I' figure; the arguments against Tibullian authorship do not stand up to close examination, there are Tibullian elements to the poem and the relationship with Horace, Epistles 1.4 is easiest to understand if Tibullus is the author. It is suggested that the poem is incomplete, a fragment from the lost portion at the end of Tibullus 2; it is not impossible that a similar history lies behind the shorter piece, 3.20.
