Aulo Giano Parrasio interprète de Virgile Quelques éléments de réflexion

After some reflections on Aulo Giano Parrasio’s exegesis of Virgil to appreciate the value of imitation to his eye and the philological consistency of this exegesis, this study both reviews some examples of Virgil’s style and language and examines the sources pertaining to Virgilian exegesis known so far in Parrasio’s literary production, to eventually focuse on his commentaries on Horace’s Ars poetica, on Claudianus’ De raptu Proserpinae and on his own De rebus per epistolam quaesitis.
