The Ciris, a Latin mythological poem of contested date and authorship, has received a certain amount of scholarly attention during the twentieth century, but has failed to meet with adequate appreciation. This study aims at vindicating the Ciris, by exploring its use of pre-Virgilianpoetic texts largely ignored in previous scholarship.
