The article deals with the passages of the Ilias Latina regarding Hecuba and Andromache (vv. 543-52, 564-74, 1015-19 and 1057-62). The analysis, enriched by a parallel with the Greek model and the Aeneid, shows a reduction of the role of these fgures, which are primarily described as Hector’s mother and wife and equipped with the typical virtues of a Roman woman.

Abstract
The article deals with the passages of the Ilias Latina regarding Hecuba and Andromache (vv. 543-52, 564-74, 1015-19 and 1057-62). The analysis, enriched by a parallel with the Greek model and the Aeneid, shows a reduction of the role of these fgures, which are primarily described as Hector’s mother and wife and equipped with the typical virtues of a Roman woman.File in questo prodotto:
