- W4321444531 abstract "The erotic letters of Aristaenetus are replete with echoes of earlier texts, often in the form of verbatim quotations or slightly modified rewritings of full sentences or entire passages, which has led scholars to dismiss his work as that of an unoriginal plagiarist. Several recent studies have shown, however, that Aristaenetus’ allusive practice is a lot more sophisticated than previously recognised. Building upon these contributions, my paper investigates Aristaenetus’ intertextual engagement with one of his most important models, Philostratus, whose Imagines he repeatedly recalls through what we might term ‘intervisual allusions’. It is my contention that this Late Antique epistolographer, in whose letters descriptions (primarily of human beauty, but also of nature) play a major role, systematically infuses his text with Philostratean echoes to evoke the Imagines’ mimetic discourse, which significantly informs his own aesthetics of imitation. He even casts some of his characters as visitors to Philostratus’ picture gallery and describes a figure emblematic of his own art in terms that might be applied to Philostratus himself. Aristaenetus moreover restages Philostratean ekphrasis in an erotic context by presenting male or female objects of desire as though they were works of art contemplated by a spectator. Through a close analysis of passages modelled upon paintings described by Philostratus, I illustrate how Aristaenetus has absorbed the ekphrastic discourse of the Imagines into the epistolary framework of his own collection and self-consciously highlights his allusions to this Second Sophistic work through a marked emphasis on visuality." @default.
