The Arts of Imitation in Latin Prose: Pliny's Epistles / Quintilian in Brief
Whitton, Christopher (University of Cambridge)
This landmark study of Latin prose intertextuality radically reinterprets Pliny's Epistles as a brilliant transformation of Quintilian's Institutio oratoria and a unique reply to Tacitus' Dialogus. Indispensable to readers of imperial Latin prose, the book is also essential reading for all students of imitation in Roman literature and culture.
