Abstract

The present paper aims to trace a path of some of the late antique representations of Virgil, particularly those present in the works of Servius, Macrobius and Fulgentius, which constitute a group of encyclopedic Latin texts. Our purpose implies a double movement: on one hand, we will try to elucidate the different versions of Virgil in Late Antique readings; on the other hand, we plan to perceive how some reflections, which are common to the all the Literature of the period, emerge anchored to the figure of the Mantuan poet.
