Abstract

Résumé. — Le réexamen de l’exemple mythologique employé par Corydon chez Virgile (en Buc., II, 60-62) suggère que celui-ci ne renvoie pas au jugement de Pâris (comme l’écrivent Coleman, Clausen et Cucchiarelli) mais à la passion amoureuse entre Pâris etŒnone.

Abstract. — This note re-examines the mythological exemplum used by Corydon in Verg., Ecl., II, 60-62, suggesting that these verses do not refer to Paris’ iudicium (cf. Coleman’s, Clausen’s and Cucchiarelli’s commentaries) but to Paris’ and Oenone’s love story.
