Abstract

The aim of this contribution is to re-trace the figure of Polla Argentaria on the basis of the very little evidence in our possession. After having described the elements that undoubtely outline some of this character's qualities, we are attempting to complete her portrait hypothesizing that she remained univira after Lucano's death. Moreover, it is possible that the doctrine that was recognized on her behalf also comprised her capability of composing verses.
