On the new day of battle that begins here, the plan of Zeus, mentioned first in Book 1, is explicitly laid out. Zeus proclaims that Hector will have power to kill until he reaches the ships of the Achaeans (11.186-94). Also in this book Achilles sends Patroclus to Nestor, \"and this was the beginning of his doom\" (11.604).1 The Janus-face of the book manifests itself not only in the content of the narrative but also in the accompanying similes. Carroll Moulton has demonstrated convincingly that a number of the similes of Book 1 1 possess clear connections with the long-range movement of the action. Thus the simile likening the movements of Hector to the intermittent light of the Dog Star (1 1.62-64) looks backward to a description of Diomedes (5.5-6) and forward to the climactic charge of Achilles against Hector in Book 22 (26-32). Likewise, the simile comparing the serpents on Agamemnon's armor to rainbows (11.27-28) looks forward to the simile at 17.547-50, where Athena's cloud is also compared to a rainbow; both signs are portents from Zeus.2 The pivotal role of Book 1 1 of the Iliad is reflected through the complexity with which its plot reflects the past and future through the present poetic moment. In this paper I will study in detail the imagery and the density of temporal references in one brief episode of the aristeia of Agamemnon (11.101-21) in order to demonstrate the artful complexity attainable through a Homeric multiple-correspondence simile both in relation to its immediate narrative context and to incidents of the past and future to which it is related.3 An","PeriodicalId":402432,"journal":{"name":"Syllecta Classica","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129481216","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Any moral objection to literature proffered by an arch-libertine should be taken, of course, with a grain of salt. Yet in that very parody of prudish cant we may hear the ghostly echo of sentiments voiced by some genuine prig— Annabella, Lady Byron, for example. In any case, Byron's observation about the exceptional amount of obscenity in the Catullan corpus still holds good and has recently been seconded by other, more sober, critics. B. Arkins calculates that two out of three poems of Catullus deal with some form of sexual behavior, and A. Richlin concurs: \"Out of all the polymetrics and epigrams, sixty-two—well over half—include invective or sexual material, some of the coarsest in Latin verse.\"1 No one who has read this poet through once will challenge D. Lateiner's contention that obscenity \"has made a significant contribution to the work of Catullus,\" or dispute W.R. Johnson's belief in its being \"somehow central to Catullus's art.\"2 For most readers of Catullan texts, the mere presence of such obscene matter no longer poses a moral problem. Yet its literary purpose is still hotly debated. Why does this \"foul-mouthed young man,\" as Johnson calls him, persist in battering our ears with toilet-stall expressions? Different lines of critical response to that question can be traced. Johnson himself argues for an iconoclastic intent: Catullus' shocking language allegedly encapsulates a rejection of old-fashioned Roman cultural values that regarded art as a vehicle of patriotic inspiration or dismissed it as a frivolous","PeriodicalId":402432,"journal":{"name":"Syllecta Classica","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126996293","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

And how better to demonstrate the truth of these convictions than by focusing, at the outset, on the despicable Crispinus, who wielded influence at the highest level of government? This pars Niliacae plebis, ... verna Canopi (1.26), who had the nerve to wear the apparel of the Roman nobility in ostentatious fashion, was the reason par excellence for Juvenal’s initial justification of his choice of genre: difficile est saturam non scribere (1.30). What a comment on the mores of the upper echelons of Roman society, to think that they stooped so low as to be on intimate terms with this monstrum nulla virtute redemptum / a vitiis (4.2–3)—a sickly fop, lecher and seducer of Vestal Virgins, whose inordinate wealth enabled him to own huge properties in the most expensive region of the city.
