Description
Abstract
The studies on the late hexameter have progressed a lot in recent decades, but a detailed analysis of the poetry remainders of the Empress Eudocia still needs to be implemented. This study shows that the verses of Eudocia are not affected by the Nonnus’s reform, despite being verses with an epic and Homeric style. The schemata number, the lesser regression of the spondee with respect to Nonnus and his followers, as well as some differences in the use of the caesuras and in the prosody, which show that her hexameter is affected by the change from quantitative rhythm to accentuatory one, they both demonstrate that the Eudocia verse is a singular page in the history of the Greek dactylic hexameter.
