Abstract

Music cultivation had a prominent place within the Hellenistic program of παιδεία spread in Rome towards the end of the Republic. It is not surprising, then, that musical references abound in the works of poets, reflecting the inextricable union between both arts. In Roman elegy, these references function as cultured winks; the consideration of musical instruments can be a valid way to unravel them.
