This seminar will combine close reading of Propertius and Tibullus with a study of their relation to love elegy and Augustan poetry. The course will focus on a number of problems in interpreting the poems: the role of autobiography in love elegy, structural disunity in Propertius, propaganda in Augustan poetry, etc.
