Sulpicia
Sulpicia was the name of two Roman women reputed in antiquity as poets.
==Sulpicia I==
The earlier Sulpicia is the only known woman from Ancient Rome whose poetry survives to this day.〔http://www.thelatinlibrary.com/sulpicia.html〕 She is said to have lived in the reign of Augustus and have been probably the daughter of Servius Sulpicius Rufus and a niece of Messalla Corvinus, an important patron of literature. Her verses were preserved with those of Tibullus in the third book of elegies, the ''Appendix tibulliana,''〔http://www.thelatinlibrary.com/tibullus3.html〕 and were for a long time attributed to him. They consist of six elegiac poems (3.13-18) addressed to a lover called Cerinthus. Cerinthus was most likely a pseudonym, in the style of the day (e. g. Catullus' Lesbia, Ovid's Corinna). Cerinthus has sometimes been thought to refer to the Cornutus addressed by Tibullus in two of his ''Elegies,'' probably an aristocratic Caecilius Cornutus. Recent criticism has tended away from attempting to identify Cerinthus with an historical figure in favour of noting the literary implications of the pseudonym.〔Pearcy, L.T., “Erasing Cerinthus: Sulpicia and her audience”, The Classical World, v.100, n.1 (Fall 2006) 31-36.〕
For a long time many academics regarded Sulpicia as an amateur author, notable for nothing but her gender. This view was challenged by Santirocco in an article published in 1979,〔Santirocco, M. S. 1979. "Sulpicia Reconsidered." CJ 74.3: 229-39.〕 and subsequently the literary merit of this collection of poems has been more fully explored.〔An overview of Sulpician criticism until 2006 can be found in Keith, Alison - "Critical trends in Interpreting Sulpicia", The Classical World, Vol. 100, No. 1 (Fall, 2006), pp. 3-10〕
Some critics have challenged the view that the poems attributed to Sulpicia were authored by a woman; Hubbard suggests the content of the poems is too risqué to have been penned by an aristocratic woman in Rome, while Habinek and Holzberg both suggest that the poems are too sophisticated to have been written by a woman.〔T. Habinek, The Politics of Latin Literature (Princeton 1998); N. Holzberg, "Four Poets and a Poetess or A Portrait of the Poet as a Young Man? Thoughts on Book 3 of the Corpus TibullianumT CJ 94 (1999).〕 In an overview of Sulpician criticism, Alison Keith described the logic of Hubbard's article as "tortuous" and also highlights problems in Holzberg and Habinek's attempts to efface female authorship.〔Keith, Alison - "Critical trends in Interpreting Sulpicia", The Classical World, Vol. 100, No. 1 (Fall, 2006), pp. 3-10〕 In contrast, Hallett argues for increasing the numbers of poems attributed to Sulpicia to include poems 8-12 from the ''Corpus Tibullianum,'' which had previously been attributed to the ''amicus Sulpiciae'' (friend of Sulpicia).〔Hallett, J., “The eleven elegies of the Augustan Poet Sulpicia”, Churchill, L.J., and Brown, P.R., Women writing Latin: From Roman Antiquity to Early Modern Europe, vol. 1 (New York, 2002) 45-65.〕
