The present paper discusses the (im)permanence of objects and memory in Sappho and Alcaeus, in the context of archaic Greek poetry, and of their reception in antiquity. After a methodological introduction, the paper analyses several texts by Alcaeus and Sappho, with special attention to the dynamics of proper names, family memories, and female kleos. The main texts analysed are: Alcaeus fr. 140 Voigt; the unnoticed allusion to this fragment in Virgil, Aeneid 7.170-86; Sappho fr. 98 Voigt.

Abstract
The present paper discusses the (im)permanence of objects and memory in Sappho and Alcaeus, in the context of archaic Greek poetry, and of their reception in antiquity. After a methodological introduction, the paper analyses several texts by Alcaeus and Sappho, with special attention to the dynamics of proper names, family memories, and female kleos. The main texts analysed are: Alcaeus fr. 140 Voigt; the unnoticed allusion to this fragment in Virgil, Aeneid 7.170-86; Sappho fr. 98 Voigt.File in questo prodotto:
