This article analyses a narrative pattern in Tacitus’ Agricola dealing with the crossing of natural boundaries. First it discusses imaginary geography and the connections between the bounds of nature and the psychology of Agricola and his soldiers. It then turns to a discus- sion of paradoxes inherent in how the bounds of nature are handled, and discusses several traditions on which Tacitus draws. In declama- tion the edges of the earth represent a mystery and a danger, while the philosophical topos of the flight of the mind, as exemplified by Lucretius’ praises of Epicurus, offers a positive scheme in which breaking the bounds of nature is a metaphor for major intellectual achievement. The implications of Agricola’s identity as a provincial Roman are discussed, along with the glimpses of an imaginary geog- raphy in which Rome is de-centred. Finally the article considers how Tacitus inverts a literary tradition of associating the periphery of the earth with death and the underworld.
L’articolo propone una rassegna delle iniziative dedicate all’opera di Pasolini in Germania degli ultimi dieci anni e una sintesi dei risultati della ricerca accademica. Nuove traduzioni rendono più ampia la divulgazione delle opere di questo autore e la loro ricezione anche da parte di un pubblico non specializzato. Sebbene l’interesse per il carattere politico dei suoi scritti sia in declino, a partire della fine degli anni novanta è invece cresciuta l’attenzione sui suoi aspetti artistici, estetici, tematici e linguistici. L’opera di Pasolini viene assunta nell’area di ricerca di studi sul corpo, della plurimedialità e intermedialità.
This article examines two series of coins that are characterized by a common violation of the gender roles and gender boundaries dominating in the Roman imperial society: the coins GALLIENAE AVGVSTAE minted for the emperor Gallienus and those with legend SOLI INVICTAE minted in the time of Maximinus Daza. These emissions are here inserted into the broader context of Roman mentalities and discourses surrounding gender, gender boundaries and their violations, that always appear to be a special prerogative pertaining to the divine.
