Ariadne falls asleep: dream and erotic incapacity in Ovid’s Heroid 10

The subject of this article is the general passivity of Ariadne in Ovid’s Heroid 10. We start from the overstatement of dream (somnus) in the epistle in relation to its most probable source, Catullus’ Carmen LXIV. Then, we move to an erotic level and we study the lexemes iners and languida. These te...

El tema del artículo es la pasividad general de Ariadna en la Heroida 10 de Ovidio. Se parte del mayor número de menciones al sueño (somnus) en la epístola con relación a su fuente más probable, el carmen LXIV de Catulo, para pasar luego a un plano erótico a partir de los lexemas iners y languida. Dichos términos generan ambigüedad ya que usualmente son utilizados con respecto a la disfunción eréctil masculina, pero, en esta carta, hacen referencia a la heroína. Bajo la hipótesis de que la princesa cretense se configura como una personificación femenina de la impotencia sexual masculina, se lleva adelante el trabajo por medio de una metodología filológica e intertextual.
