What reading level is The Elegies of Albius Tibullus the Corpus Tibullianum Edited With Introduction book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
bats the favorite method of makinor inferences from the poet's silence — for example, that Tibullus and the circle of Messalla were politically opposed to the circle of Maecenas. The sup- posed rivalry indicated by Vergil's ten eclogues and Tibullus's ten elegies of Book i, by Horace's Priapus Satire and Tibullus's Priapus elegy, is sufficiently explained by ' the common phe- nomenon of a contemporary interest in certain themes and forms'. Very interesting too is the suggestion (p. 39) that Mes...salla, who is known to have been interested in niceties of style, may have had far greater influence on Tibullus than we know. Against the oft tried effort to write a history of Tibullus's love affairs Professor Smith says (p. 43), ' The poet is free to interweave fact with fiction, actual events with mere literary motives ; and only those who are in the secret can be sure which is which ', and yet ' the simple faith of the old commentators who . . Took every refer- ence at its face value, is not more unreasonable than the sweep- ing incredulity of some of our modern critics' — this last a sensible protest against those who would make of the poet's work a mere cento of bookishness.
