Descrizione

The role of Arcadia in Virgil’s Eclogues has received great attention, from the interpretations that considered the Virgilian poems the origin of Arcadia as locus amoenus to most critical and current hypothesis that mark the distance between the Western tradition of Arcadia felix and Virgil’s poems. Reality is that Virgil’s Arcadia is still a very powerful and partly distorted image from the historical point of view. I therefore think that it is necessary to continue with the critical view of the Virgilian Arcadia, redefining the use of Arcadia in the poems of Virgil, remodeling his role in the construction of the mythical image of Arcadia and analyzing the role played by god Pan in the choice of Arcadia as a poetic reference in the Roman world.
