Abstract(s)
The image of primary antiquity which is opposed to the present as a friendly and not yet spoiled state of things or unfriendly and not yet improved one is an important part of the poetic world of Tibullus. In these oppositions, a particular role is given to the idea of boundary, destructive and disintegrating or constructive and integrating, respectively. Thus, in this paper the images of primary antiquities are described and classified in accordance with how the idea of boundary is manifested in them. Specific realizations of the image of the primary antiquities bear marks of different poetic, philosophic or political traditions and systems. In this paper, the author does not discuss the origin of images as well as possible traces of Tibullus' changing ideology in them. However, the correlation of the image with the type, general pathos, and genre model of every specific poem is traced instead.
