| Summary: | Prudentius’ perist. 3 (Hymnus in honorem passionis Eulaliae, beatissimae martyris) points out in a clear way a mélange of different literary genres. Its initial lines have a consolatory content that goes back to Jerome’s Epitaphium Paulae (epist. 108) and to Paulinus of Nola’s carm. 31. The lines that introduce Eulalia’s passio follow in a remarkable way Paulinus’ natalicia III, IV, and VI (carm. 14, 15, and 18). On the contrary, we cannot determine with certainty which sources Prudentius really uses in its main part. If we consider their content, the final lines (186-215) once more show their evident dependence on that part of natalicia above mentioned, where Paulinus celebrates the anniversary of saint Felix’s death and his ascent to Heaven. Le Perist. 3 de Prudence (Hymnus in honorem passionis Eulaliae, beatissimae martyris) manifeste, de manière évidente, un mélange de divers genres littéraires. Ses premiers vers ont le caractère d’une consolation qui remonte à l’Epitaphium Paulae (epist. 108) de Jérôme et au carm. 31 de Paulin de Nole. Les vers qui introduisent la passion d’Eulalie remontent au contraire aux natalicia III, IV et VI (carm. 14, 15 et 18) de Paulin. Par contre, nous ne pouvons établir quelles sources Prudence utilise dans la partie centrale. Si nous considérons leur contenu, les vers finaux 186-215 manifestent encore une fois la même dépendance étroite à l’égard des natalicia cités ci-dessus, dans lesquels Paulin célèbre l’anniversaire de la mort de Félix et sa montée au ciel. Il Perist. 3 di Prudenzio (Hymnus in honorem passionis Eulaliae, beatissimae martyris) evidenzia in maniera chiara un mélange di generi letterari diversi. I suoi versi iniziali hanno un contenuto consolatorio, che si rifà all’Epitaphium Paulae (epist. 108) di Girolamo ed el carm. 31 di Paolino di Nola. I versi che introducono la passio di Eulalia si rifanno al contrario in misura notevole ai natalicia III, IV e VI (carmm. 14, 15 e 18) di Paolino. Non possiamo stabilire invece quali fonti Prudenzio usi nella sua parte centrale. Se consideriamo il loro contenuto, i versi finali 186-215 mostrano ancora una volta la stessa evidente dipendenza dai natalicia da noi sopra citati, in cui Paolino celebra l’anniversario della morte di s. Felice e la sua salita al cielo. |
