Abstract

The analysis about a relatively small section of the novel Notti Romane written by the 18th-century Italian intellectual Alessandro Verri, i.e. the animated discussion in the underworld between two ancient rivals, Iulius Caesar and Pompeius, and the description by his wife of Pompeius’ pitiful death are useful to enlighten Verris neoclassic novel-shaping, as it focuses on the patterns followed by the author in arranging his classical sources, and particularly Pompeius' Life by Plutarch.
