| Sumario: | The characters of Caesar and Pompey in Pharsalia show certain inconsistencies that critical literature has attempted to explain by means of different strategies for building of meaning. A distinctive one among these is the intertextual reading between Pharsalia and The Iliad, concerning mainly the heroic code (Anderson, 1957; Hardie, 1993; Green, 1991).This reading stems from von Albrecht (1970), who stablishes a parallelism between Caesar and Achilles, and between Pompey and Agamemnon. Our paper departs from von Albrecht as far as the second one is concerned, in order to set a new comparison between Pompey’s fictional representation and Hector’s character. Our objective is to rethink the intertextual reading of Pharsalia, and thereby shed light on Lucan’s interpretation of the Civil Wars. |
