Latin literature is a hotbed of holes and erasures. Its sensitivity
to politics leaves it ripe for repression of all sorts of names,
places and historical events, while its dense allusivity appears to
hide interpretative clues in a network of texts that only the
reader's consciousness can make present. This volume showcases
innovative approaches to the field of Latin literature, all of
which are refracted through this prism of absence, which functions
as a fundamental generative force both for the hermeneutics and the
ongoing literary aftermath of these texts. Reviewing and working
with various influential approaches to textual absence, the
contributors to Unspoken Rome treat these texts as silent types,
listening out for what they do not say, and how they do not speak,
whilst also tracing the ill-defined borders within which scholars
and modern authors are legitimized to fill in the silences around
which they are built.
