  sulpicia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
Sulpicia was the name of two Roman poets.
The earlier lived in the reign of Augustus, and was a niece of Messalla, the patron of literature.
It is in the form of a dialogue between Sulpicia and the muse Calliope, and is chiefly a protest against the banishment of the philosophers by the edict of Domitian (AD 94), as likely to throw Rome back into a state of barbarism.

 SULPICIA   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
Sulpicia assigns an intention because that is what she needs to understand; but she assigns a self-conflicted intention, where cruelty masquerades as sollicitude, because there is no clear understanding.
Sulpicia’s detachment lies in the fact of her real detachment: her name and position are not hers but a reflection of her status as the possession of others.
Sulpicia’s effort to celebrate the dignity of the intimate space of responsible reciprocity and to speak in her own discourse has been written over with a male voyeuristic fantasy, one which first dresses her up and then undresses her, one in which even the wild boar is voyeur to her

 Diotima
Sulpicia's erotic verse seems to have enjoyed a renaissance in late antiquity, when it is mentioned by Ausonius and other writers.
Ausonius also speaks of Sulpicia as a moral critic; this may be a reference to the poetic Complaint attributed to her, but whose authenticity is often denied by modern scholars.
All that survives of the poetry for which she was most famed is a fragment consisting of two lines preserved by a grammarian as a gloss on a Latin word for "linen".

Sulpicia's beloved Cerinthus is probably to be identified with the Cornutus to whom Tib.
Indeed, the Kalends of March is significant as the day Sulpicia is cultivated (4.2.1) because it is the Matronalia, the day when husbands pray for the health of their wives and offer them presents.
That the only two Roman poetesses we know should both be named "Sulpicia" is too much of a coincidence; it must be that the earlier Sulpicia's name was appropriated by the latter, who saw the earlier Sulpicia's poetry as a precedent for her (or his) work.

 Sulpicia: about this text
Sulpicia's poems are the only literary texts by a female preserved from ancient Rome.
In her poems, Sulpicia proclaims her love for Cerinthus and, in doing so, she articulates the female response to the male gaze.
The leading suffering throughout her corpus is not the one provoked by the absence of reciprocated love -- as in the male elegiacs --, but the one caused by the panoptic gaze of her male counterparts.

 Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2003.02.24
Sulpicia is the only Roman woman poet whose work has survived from antiquity, and Skoie is of course particularly interested in issues of gender and morality, that is in the ways male philologists have confronted a female-produced text according to their different ideological and cultural preconceptions.
The real turning point in Sulpicia's reception was the publication of Matthew Santirocco's article, "Sulpicia Reconsidered," CJ 74 (1979) 229-39, where for the first time Sulpicia's poems began to be evaluated as poetry, and not as a male fiction or biographical document.
Unlike Cyllenius, Scaliger offers his readers an extensive paraphrasing of Sulpicia's poems, and he even tries to fill in the many gaps of the love story between Sulpicia and Cerinthus by imagining that Messalla himself was in love with her.

Sulpicia's contemporaries were Ovid and Horace, but while their work has been feted in the centuries since they created it, Sulpicia has been largely marginalised.
Sulpicia had a relationship with a man not her husband, but her uncle halted that liaison.
Referring to the earthy nature of Sulpicia's poetry, she said: "We should not underestimate that people from another time were just as passionate and peculiar as we are".

Finally, the notion of Sulpicia's reputation, her fama, is reached at the end of the pentameter as it pulls together the sense of the subordinate clause.
Venus was, we learn, beseeched and won over through the agency of Sulpicia's Muses: her poetry, in a gender reversal of the usual roles of the avid, poetic male and the bemused but hesitant female, has placed her lover comfortably in her bosom.
First, Sulpicia avoids elision; there is only one in the ten lines and although it occurs in the pentameter of the first couplet, it is of a short vowel and away from the diaeresis.

The particular construction used by Sulpicia however being an infinitive clause without an accusative, the value of sit mihi fama is the same as that of ferar in the closing line.
In my opinion Sulpicia, by using meis Camenis, wants to emphasise that she is writing “Latin verse” in the sense of an ancient Latin genre.

Nanay Sulpicia recounted how in those days, Cagayan de Oro River used to be a great source of fun for children and adults alike.
As a child, Nanay Sulpicia recalled that the thick branches of the lambago trees lining the river bank served as their diving board as they would swim in the crystal clear waters of the Cagayan de Oro River.
Nanay Sulpicia also recalled how women in her times would pound lambago leaves and flowers and used the juice as shampoo, which would leave their hair soft and lustrous.

The six poems ascribed to the effortlessly aristocratic Sulpicia owe their survival to one of the patrons of literature in Rome in the 1st century BC, Messalla.
He also happened to be her uncle and became her guardian on the death of her father, Servius Sulpicius Rufus, a leading lawyer and consul in 51 BC.
So Sulpicia has been around for more than 600 years, and translations of her six love elegies (40 lines in all) have been available for some time, telling of her passionate feelings for her lover Cerinthus (a pet name, hiding his identity).
