Abstract:
After reasserting the traditional identification of the poetess Proba with Faltonia Betitia Proba (the wife of Clodius Celsinus Adelphius, PV 351), the Author examines Proba’s and Ausonius’ centos within the frame of the tradition of the literary genre they belong to. She suggests that the similarities in the use of Virgil half-verses in the two centos may be justified if we think that Ausonius, who composed his ‘cento nuptialis’ after 370, did know Proba’s work (presumably composed after 362) and hinted at it with elegance and with a slightly parodistic aim.
