| Resumo: | This paper consists in an anthology and study of Pompeii’s graffiti which preserve direct or indirect quotations to verses of Propertius, a Roman elegiac poet from the Augustan period. Assuming that wall inscriptions manifest a dynamic layer of popular culture, it analyzes how five inscriptions – CIL 4.1520, 1894, 1950, 4491 e 9847 –, when examined in both their archaeological context and literary reformulations, inform popular appropriations of Propertius’ poetry. |
