Abstract


One of the outstanding literary features of the latest old Latin poets (Pentadius, Optatianus Porfyrius, Tiberianus and, mainly, Ausonius) is undoubtedly the detailed description and close imitation of reality, even in its most ambiguous aspects —whether they are pellucidness, touches of light and shade, gleams, delusion or an odd blend of truth and deceit— and thus they attempt to excel their classical models, closely related to the aesthetics which rules other techniques and arts at the time. Such an aesthetic approach affects both matter and form (echoic verses, centos, carmina figurata, etc.).
