Document Details : Title: A Parallel Reading of Statius' and Silius' Lion Similes Author(s): TOMCIK, Melissande Journal: Latomus Volume: 83 Issue: 2 Date: 2024 Pages: 319-336 DOI: 10.2143/LAT.83.2.3293440 Abstract : This article offers a new methodological approach to the comparative study of Statius’ Thebaid and Silius’ Punica.
