The motifs of fons inspirationis and labor limae lost their semantic force in Latin poetry after the Augustan age. This book analyzes these two topoi from Ovid to Martial and shows how poetic inspiration and lima poetica are subtly displayed for the purpose of self-fashioning and communication by poets with their patrons.
