The contribution aims to analyze the classical echoes in Jerome's letter 123 de monogamia sent in 409 to Geruchia, a Gallo-Roman noblewoman. Quotations and allusions to the classics, renewed and transformed, intertwine with the doctrinal essence of the text. Virgil's, Ovid's and Lucan's references, utterly fit in the Christian context, through a modus operandi which reveals itself to be, once again, not only intentional, but also systematic.

Abstract
The contribution aims to analyze the classical echoes in Jerome's letter 123 de monogamia sent in 409 to Geruchia, a Gallo-Roman noblewoman. Quotations and allusions to the classics, renewed and transformed, intertwine with the doctrinal essence of the text. Virgil's, Ovid's and Lucan's references, utterly fit in the Christian context, through a modus operandi which reveals itself to be, once again, not only intentional, but also systematic.File in questo prodotto:
