I28-R145-11251_oai2025-11-17 Daujotas, Gustavo 2022-03-25 Ovid’s Elegy 3.7 from Amores the enunciator complains given that, suffering from sexual impotence, he was unable to unite with the young woman . Beyond these vicissitudes, we understand this episode as a metapoetic which presents the transient abandonment of the elegiac practice and foreshadows the approach to other poetic genres. In the elegiac code, where an objective is pursued but not attained (as, if it were, it would put an end to the amatory and writing practice), the desire for the puella’s body is comparable to the desire for the amatory and poetic practice. We consider this elegy not only shows an implied announcement of the abandonment of this type of poetry, but also a strengthening of the enunciator’s poetic streak and, thus, it foreshadows the development of other genres, which will include a subjacent amorous layer, as is substantiated by the rest of Ovid’s preserved works. En la elegía 3.7 de Amores de Ovidio el enunciador se queja porque, víctima de impotencia sexual, no ha podido unirse con la joven. Más allá de estas vicisitudes, entendemos el episodio como una metapoética que escenifica el transitorio abandono de la práctica elegíaca y prefigura el abordaje de otros géneros poéticos. En el código elegíaco, donde se persigue un objetivo que no se alcanza (pues de resultar así se terminaría la práctica amatoria y escrituraria), el deseo por el cuerpo de la puella es equiparable al deseo de la práctica amatoria y poética. Consideramos que en esta elegía no solamente se encuentra implicado un anuncio del abandono de esta clase de poesía, sino que la vena poética del enunciador se ve fortalecida y, de este modo, preanuncia el cultivo de otros géneros, en los cuales subyacerá un estrato amoroso, tal como lo demuestra el resto de la producción ovidiana conservada. application/pdf text/html https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/afc/article/view/11251 10.34096/afc.i34.11251 spa Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/afc/article/view/11251/10083 https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/afc/article/view/11251/10084 Anales de Filología Clásica; Vol. 2 Núm. 34 (2021); 41-54 2362-4841 0325-1721 Ovid Amores metapoetic sexual impotence genre Ovidio Amores metapoética impotencia sexual g´énero Sexual impotence and genre experimentation in Ovid’s Amores 3.7 Impotencia sexual y experimentación genérica en Ovidio, Amores 3.7 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo revisado por pares https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=anafilog&d=11251_oai |
