Abstract


Almost every Lucan's manuscript has in Pharsalia I 254 the variant furentem (only one gives ruentem), but almost every one of the editors prefers ruentem. The acceptance of ruentem is due to the nearby presence of a furentum and a furoris. Here we maintain furentem as the right reading, on grounds of Lucan's familiar stylistic procedure of repetition of the key terms of a passage. The poetic value of this repetition is endorsed in modern times by R. Jakobson and S. R. Levin.
