Abstract

Catullus was quoted by Nepos in his Chronica, an original book, the first in its genre written in Rome. The Chronica, as we see in Atticus’ Liber Annalis and Jerome’s Chronica were books of general history that included reports on writers. Catullus was meant to be included in literary history on the basis of Nepos’ book, which claimed to be the first in its genre. A proem is usually a paratextual instance that connects a particular book with literary history. The book of Catullus, as much as the one of Nepos, exhibits a deep comprehension of historical time and broad geographical horizons, like the Empire itself. It also opens the way for other liminary poems of some books of Augustan poetry (Bucolics, Odes, Epodes), which connect the poet’s time with the Empire’s time.
