Poetic Autonomy In Ancient Rome

Luke Roman argues that poets in ancient Rome employed a distinctive 'rhetoric of autonomy' and represented their poetry as different from other cultural products and social relations. Looking closely at the works of famous Roman poets, he offers fresh insights into ancient literary texts and the dialogue between ancient and modern aesthetics.
