	Catullus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Catullus and Callimachus did not describe the feats of ancient heroes and gods (except perhaps in re-evaluating and predominantly artistic circumstances, e.g.
		Catullus was also an admirer of Sappho, a poetess of the 7th century BC, and is the source for much of what we know or infer about her.
		Catullus 51 is a translation of Sappho 31, and 61 and 62 are certainly inspired by and perhaps translated directly from lost works of Sappho.

		Gaius Valerius Catullus was born at Verona in Cisalpine Gaul.
		The second date cannot be true: that Catullus was alive in 55 is proved by his references to Pompey's second consulship (113.2), to the Porticus Pompeii (55.6), and to Caesar's invasion of Britain (11.12, 29.4), but he makes no references to any event after 55.
		Catullus' last message to her (11) was probably written in 55 or 54.

	Catullus, U. of Saskatchewan
		Catullus does not seem to be indignant at any illegal activity on the part of these governors, however, but rather at the fact that neither he nor his friends were able to profit from their service as part of these governors' cohorts.
		Catullus thus represents a social as well as a literary phenomenon, providing us with a glimpse of the life and concerns of a wealthy and talented member of the equestrian class in the midst of the turmoil of the Late Republic.
		In this sense Catullus' poetry serves as a useful corrective to the gloomy picture conveyed by the violent and chaotic politics of this period: it is clear that, despite the uncertainties of the times, for many people life went along its usual course.

	Catullus Translations - About Catullus - Gaius Valerius Catullus (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		Since Catullus is generally thought to have lived between 84 and 54 B. E., this manuscript was a copy of a copy of a copy...
		Catullus made fun of Julius Caeser and one of his hechmen in his poems, but apologized and was easily forgiven.
		Catullus is particularly well known for his rude and crude poetry which, however finely polished, astonishes us with vitriolic obscenities and gross violations of good taste.

	The Brownstone Journal
		Catullus’ Carmen 84 is a piece of invective poetry written in elegiac couplets and aimed at Arrius, a man who over-aspirates his words in a most unstylish way.
		Catullus further mocks Arrius by claiming his mother and her entire family (brother, mother, and father) spoke this way as well.
		Although this interpretation as well as the winteriness of cio¢ enouz, are possible, Catullus often criticizes his enemies for their literary and social shortcomings (as in poems 22, 36, and 95), and so it seems to me that Fordyce might be correct in saying the joke is no more complicated than its face value (375).

	Latin profanity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The satirical poets, particularly Catullus and Martial, use the words in preserved literary works.
		Catullus uses Mentula as a nickname for Mamurra, and uses it as an ordinary name, as in his epigram 105:
		It is in itself used metaphorically in Catullus 6, which speaks of latera ecfututa, funds exhausted, literally "fucked away." Catullus 41 speaks of a puella defutata, a woman exhausted by fucking; while Catullus 29 similarly speaks of a mentula diffutata, a penis similarly worn out.

	Bit o' Nifty: Lesbia
		If this is correct, then she's the same person accused by Cicero of poisoning her husband and committing incest with her brother.
		Of Catullus' 26 Lesbia poems, 10 are homages to his love for her; two compare her to other women; four gripe about their quarrels; six accuse her of infidelity to him; three charge her with specific affairs, including the rumored liaison with her brother; and four are just outright abusive (some of these categories overlap).
		Catullus apparently had an affair with her before her husband suddenly died.

	Gaius Julius Caesar (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		Caesar was a political ally of Pompey's at this time, and Catullus denounced both of them (Poem 29), as did his friend Calvus.
		In Poem 11 Catullus refers to the Caesar' campaigns in Gaul and Britain ("the memorials of great Caesar"), but his praise is doubtless ironic.
		When he addresses Caesar as "imperator unice (you one and only general)" in Poem 29 and Poem 54, he is again being sarcastic.

		Gaius Valerius Catullus was born at Verona in Northern Italy.
		Catullus is generally credited with bringing the poetics of Alexandria to Rome.
		Though Catullus apparently belonged to a group of stylish young poets, called the neoteroi (Ïnew poets -- we might be tempted to call them the avante garde), of this group's production only his poetry survived the ravages of time and taste.

		The vast majority of the individual notes simply present such information as is found in a glossary, or in the vocabulary at the end of the book (although there are exceptions: 1, 35 and 65, for example, have some more detailed notes).

		Catullus could clearly hate, but he could also love.
		In this section of the course we'll examine Catullus' attitudes towards love—especially romantic and sexual—and turn a critical eye to his well-documented relationship with his on-again, off-again flame, Lesbia.

		Our aim is to understand the poems of Catullus within their cultural context.
		With this in mind, we will read all the poems of Catullus' corpus and discuss their significance not only as independent entities, but as products of late-Republican Rome; and we will read selections from the works of Catullus' contemporaries and from secondary works on the history and society of Catullus' day.
		Each student will memorize one poem of Catullus of 8 or more lines and recite the poem to the instructor as part of her or his final exam.

		He certainly does a good job on the hatred part, cursing her to be screwed forever without interruption and without love, that is a pretty harsh curse.
		It's a very natural part of life, and Catullus does a great job of recording his experience in verse; the emotional progression he makes, from love, to jealous, to hatred is smooth believable and just riveting.
		This is another guy, like Catullus, who wrote a series of love poems for just one person However there are a couple of important differences between the two that are worth bringing up.

		This book is the first attempt to read the poems of Gaius Valerius Catullus in his own context; to look at the poet and his works against the cultural realities of the first century BC as recent advances in historical research allow us to understand them.
		Catullus' own social background, the circumstances of the literary life of his time, the true extent of his works and the variety of audiences he addressed - these and other questions are explored by Professor Wiseman with new and startling results.
		Contemporary high society and politics are illustrated through Clodia and Caelius Rufus, considered not as mere adjuncts to Catullus' story but as significant historical personalities in their own right.

		The title of Timothy Liu’s fifth collection may suggest poems of a political cast, but this book is no more or less topical than 2001’s Hard Evidence, and the title’s address embraces any number of abstractions: nation, God, beloved, body.
		Liu is not an untalented writer, and he is capable of moments of grace and craft; two poems here, “Getting There” and “Bisexuality,” suggest a poet of sly, sometimes lovely erotic subtlety, at his best almost resembling a latter-day, lesser Catullus.
		In this second collection of poems by noted critic James Longenbach, two travelers embark on a journey both grounded in the literal and imbued with spiritual significance.

		In general, class members were satisfied with the assignments, but one complained that the “grading policy was vague” and another actually wanted another paper.
