Laudatio Turiae
Laudatio Turiae ("In praise of Turia") is a tombstone engraved with a carved epitaph that is a husband's eulogy of his wife.〔(''Private Lives and Public Personae'' University of Tennessee )〕 It was made in the late 1st century BC. It portrays the love of a husband for his loyal wife.
This inscription is traditionally known as the "Laudatio Turiae".〔http://www.u.arizona.edu/~afutrell/survey/laud%20tur.htm〕〔(Laudatio Turiae tombstone )〕 The attribution is uncertain, but the addressee was generally identified with Turia,〔(Women in Rome )〕〔(A funeral eulogy. Rome, 1st cent. B.C. (ILS 8393. Tr. E. Wistrand. L) )〕 whence the name of the inscription. W. Ward Fowler states, "...there is a very strong probability that her name was Turia, and that he was
the certain Q. Lucretius Vespillo..."〔(Social life at Rome in the Age of Cicero by W. Warde Fowler )〕 This assignment is no longer generally accepted.
== Tombstone ==
The frequently moving eulogy inscribed on the stone is addressed from a husband to his deceased wife, lauding her virtues, self-sacrificing love, and unflinching loyalty toward him when she was still alive. The stone itself is broken, and parts have been found scattered around the city of Rome, although some sections remain lost.〔(JSTOR: A New Fragment of the Laudatio Turiae )〕 At 180 lines, the "Laudatio Turiae" is currently the longest surviving personal inscription from Classical Rome.
