Descripción
Sumario:The emergence of large cities is not a novelty of the past three centuries. In the Greco-Roman cultural area there were already cities with millions, which were structurally, culturally and socially comparable to today's big cities. But did this special form of human coexistence find its way into the literature of its time? Without a doubt, in the seals of the Augustan and Imperial periods, a large city was repeatedly chosen as the place of literature: the capital, Rome. The present study examines the extent to which the (specific) spatial characteristics of the big city are addressed in contemporary works and how the Latin authors position themselves as their own literary subject.
