Abstract
Ausonius describes his wife Sabina with the traditional virtues of femina proba (she is pia, casta, frugi, lanifica). She seems also charming and docta as an elegiac domina is.was she also docta to texere carmina, and not only licia? Certainly, the relationship between the poet and his wife seems to be inspired both by the ideal of mutuus amor and both by the reflections of Christian authors of iV century about woman’s role in the marriage.File in questo prodotto:
