Non vulgare genus. Ekphrasis, literarisches Gedächtnis und gattungsspezifische Innovation in der sechsten Ekloge des T. Calpurnius Siculus. ACD XLIII (2007) 57–70.
Hermann Hagen searched through a hybrid thirteenth- or fourteenth-century manuscript in the monastery library at nearby Einsiedeln methodically enough to register the contents of pp. 206–7. Since Hagen announced his find, the Einsiedeln Eclogues (“EE”) have traditionally tacked onto the Eclogues of Calpurnius Siculus as products of the honeymoon period of Nero's reign, along with Seneca's skit Apocolocyntosis, with which this assortment has a skein of common threads and tempting responsions. That the founding trope of pastoral is a highly pronounced prosopopoeia distancing utterance from author and reader by postulation of an imagined marginal locus loquendi, where the global archive of imperial culture means precious little, means that what gets said easily assimilates to any place/time of reading-performance.
