The idiosyncratic co-existence of love and war not only stands as a peculiar feature of Valerius’ rewriting of the Argonautic myth, but also offers a privileged vantage point in order to evaluate the poem’s relationship with the whole epic tradition, namely its attitude to negotiate a place between its ‘exemplary model’ (Apollonius’ hellenistic epic on the voyage of the Argo) and its influential ‘code models’ (Virgil’s Aeneid above all, but also Homer’s Iliad).

Abstract

The idiosyncratic co-existence of love and war not only stands as a peculiar feature of Valerius’ rewriting of the Argonautic myth, but also offers a privileged vantage point in order to evaluate the poem’s relationship with the whole epic tradition, namely its attitude to negotiate a place between its ‘exemplary model’ (Apollonius’ hellenistic epic on the voyage of the Argo) and its influential ‘code models’ (Virgil’s Aeneid above all, but also Homer’s Iliad).
