Sumario:Properz and Tibullus are among the most important Latin poets of the Augustan period and shaped the Roman love elegy at its best. In their elegies, both deal with the social and value concepts of the time. For example, they portray the elegiac ego as a submissive, desperate, or rejected lover—an image incompatible with the ideals of Augustan Rome. Previous studies of elegy have focused on the development of its motifs; Here, especially in the last century, a clear distinction was drawn between the narrating and the narrated I. Fabiola Dengler, on the other hand, combines the specific motifs of the love elegy - lamentation, mourning, fulfillment - with the first-person perspective of the Roman love elegy in one investigation. In doing so, she places the concept of the elegiac I at the center of her interpretations of selected elegies from the four books of Properz and the two books of Tibullus. It shows the possibilities that the poets use to control the perception of the elegiac I in the mind of the reader. Can the literary techniques used by Tibullus be distinguished from those used by Propertius? Can a typical ego representation be identified for the two elegiacs? With regard to the composition of the books, she also examines whether mechanisms from previous elegies are used.
