摘要

摘要:在西塞罗写给历史学家L. Lucceius的那封臭名昭著的信中(Fam. 5.12)，这位演说家通过幽默、修辞语言和其他温文尔气的标志创造了一个讽刺的角色，动摇了读者对这封信明显意图的感觉。高水平的复杂性和作者滑稽的语气吸引了人们对这封信的形式的关注，而牺牲了它的内容，使它成为一个精湛的表演，而不是一个严肃的请求。西塞罗对卢西修的揶揄更强烈地指向了他对这封信的讽刺解读，认为这是朋友之间的玩笑。

Irony and Figured Language in Cicero’s Letter to Lucceius

Abstract:In Cicero’s notorious letter to the historian L. Lucceius (Fam. 5.12), the orator creates an ironic persona through humor, figured language, and other markers of urbanity, destabilizing his readers’ sense of the letter’s apparent intent. The high level of intricacy and the author’s ludic tone draw attention to the form of the letter at the expense of its content, framing it as a virtuosic performance rather than a serious request. Cicero’s teasing of Lucceius points him more strongly toward an ironic interpretation of the letter as a joke shared between friends.
