Resumo

Troy and Trojan lore plays an appreciable role in the extant poetry of Catullus, though to date there has been no systematic study of all of the allusions to Priam’s city and Phrygian mythology in his corpus. Close examination of the references to Troy in Catullus reveals a noteworthy concern with the Trojan element in the foundation lore of Rome, of interest both for a better understanding of the poet and as a precursor to Virgil’s more systematic engagement with the same themes in his epic.
