Rzymskie bóstwo akwatyczne Tiberinus w epickiej narracji "Annales" Enniusza
Journal Title: Collectanea Philologica - Year 2014, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
After a short introduction, including the Annals’ characteristic and providing the state of research on ancient prayer, the speaker will present the ritual formula used to call upon the God of the Tiber River: adesto, Tiberine, cum tuis undis. (Serv., in Aen. VIII 72). An example of this formula usage is the prayer utterance of one of the national epic’s character, the Annals of Quintus Ennius (Ann. I 26 Skutsch). Since, for the purposes of literary research, significant is only the first triad of this historic poem, the research was limited to Book I of the work. The realism of portrayed events is a dominant feature of the world depicted in the analyzed work and, in an essential manner, it influenced Roman religious ideals. The prayer of Aeneas to Tiberinus – the god of the Tiber River, is therefore reviewed in a context of mythological topics taken from Homeric tradition. This sacral utterance is spoken in accordance to certain stylistic and ritual patterns that were in use in Roman poetry.
