This study transforms our understanding of Roman love elegy, an important and complex corpus of poetry that flourished in the late first century b.c.e. Sharon L. James reads key poems by Propertius, Tibullus, and Ovid for the first time from the perspective of the woman to whom they are addressedâthe docta puella, or learned girl, the poet's beloved. By interpreting the poetry not, as has always been done, from the stance of the elite male writersâas plaint and confessionâbut rather from the viewpoint of the womenâthus as persuasion and attempted manipulationâJames reveals strategies and substance that no one has listened for before.
