By examining different aspects of the relationship between women and time we are able to shed light on the role of the female beloved, or puella, in Latin love elegy. In chapter one of this dissertation, I investigate the socio-historical context of elegy as revealed in sources documenting the Augustan regime. These sources suggest that the Princeps' moral and marital legislation put restrictions on the life-course of elite citizens that are felt in elegy's preoccupation with time and aging.

520 $a By examining different aspects of the relationship between women and time we are able to shed light on the role of the female beloved, or puella, in Latin love elegy. In chapter one of this dissertation, I investigate the socio-historical context of elegy as revealed in sources documenting the Augustan regime. These sources suggest that the Princeps' moral and marital legislation put restrictions on the life-course of elite citizens that are felt in elegy's preoccupation with time and aging.
520 $a In chapters two and three, I discuss features of elegiac language that rely on the puella's identity as a delaying figure and define her as exempt from the forward movement of time. The theorist J. Kristeva argues (1979) that the temporal experience of women is characterized by repetition, circularity, and eternity, while "men's time" is defined by "departure, progression and arrival...the time of history." Kristeva's view of women as outside the linear movement of men's time corresponds neatly with the way that pursuit of elegy's puella functions as an alternative for the Roman male citizen who refuses to take part in the traditional pursuits of war and history making.
520 $a Chapter four uncovers elegiac conventions that counter the notion of woman's existence outside historical time and identify the puella as subject to the destructive properties of time. This identification relies on the traditional association between woman and nature (S. B. Ortner 1972, 1996). Woman's link with the natural world and her consequent susceptibility to physical decay result in two rhetorical strategies extending throughout elegy: metaphors equating woman with the forces of nature and passages illustrating the effects of time on the puella, lena, or anus.
520 $a Elegy's poet-lovers also express fears about the consequences of age on themselves. In chapter five, I consider future alternatives for the poet-lover who considers writing outside the boundaries of the elegiac genre, thereby extending his life beyond the course of any love affair. In doing so, the elegiac speaker assumes a poetic immortality that sharply contrasts the fate of his puella.
