  • Gallus,
  • Theocritus

Abstract

In Virg. ecl. 7, many clues can suggest the presence of Gallus’ poetry as interlocutor and model for Virgil. Besides Theocritus, the author seems to refer to the Gallan poems in a complex dialogue about the originality of the new Latin poetic genres, Virgilian bucolic and Gallan elegy.
