À la suite de la bataille d’Actium, Auguste est parvenu à fonder un régime politique durable, communément appelé principat, dont la nature continue à faire débat. L’apparition au début des années 20 av. J.-C. du thème de la Res publica restituta, à la fois slogan et programme politique qui faisaient d’Auguste le restaurateur de l’État romain, n’est pas le moindre des paradoxes. Si l’historiographie reste sensible aux ruptures qui résultaient de la mainmise sur l’État d’un seul homme et de sa famille, il y a place également pour une étude des continuités que le nouveau régime n’a cessé de mettre en avant à ses débuts. Les organisateurs du colloque de Nantes, Fr. Hurlet et B. Mineo, ont rassemblé une équipe internationale d’une vingtaine de chercheurs pour susciter un échange de points de vue sur le sujet entre littéraires, historiens, historiens de l’art et archéologues. Les auteurs augustéens – historien comme Tite-Live, poètes comme Virgile, Horace ou Ovide – ont été l’objet d’une attention particulière à travers l’étude de leur perception du nouveau régime et de la nature de leurs relations avec le prince ; l’enquête a été étendue aux auteurs postérieurs à Auguste qui ont traité de la naissance du principat (Tacite et Dion Cassius). Les épigraphistes et les numismates ont analysé la manière dont le nouveau régime cherchait à se présenter sur les inscriptions et les monnaies afin de mieux saisir toutes les subtilités du discours officiel. La mise en forme des pouvoirs impériaux et l’attitude de l’aristocratie au moment de la mise en place du principat ont fait également l’objet d’études spécifiques. Ont été prises en compte les images liées au nouveau pouvoir – monuments, demeure d’Auguste sur le Palatin, statues, reliefs, cérémonies religieuses – comme support matériel de l’idéologie impériale. Un tel faisceau de points de vue permet de mieux se représenter dans toute leur complexité les fondements du principat augustéen à sa naissance.

The Augustan age was one in which writers were constantly reworking the Roman past, and which was marked by a profound engagement of poets with the historians and historical techniques which were the main vehicle for the transmission of the image of the past to their day. In this book seventeen leading scholars from Europe and America examine the fascinating interaction between such apparently diverse genres: how the Augustan poets drew on — or reacted against — the historians’ presentation of the world, and how, conversely, historians picked up and transformed poetic themes for their own ends. With essays on poems from Horace’s Odes to Ovid’s Metamorphoses , on authors from Virgil to Valerius Maximus, it forms the most important topic so central to such a particulary relevant period of literary history.

At the time of this book's first publication in 1999, orthodoxy interpreted the Georgics as a statement of profound ambivalence towards Octavian and his claim to be Rome's saviour after the catastrophe of the civil wars. This book takes issue with the model of the subtly subversive poet. It argues that in the turbulent political circumstances which obtained at the time of the poem's composition, Virgil's preoccupation with violent conflict has a highly optimistic import. Octavian's brutal conduct in the civil wars is subjected to a searching analysis, but is ultimately vindicated, refigured as a paradoxically constructive violence analogous to blood sacrifice or Romulus' fratricide of Remus. The vindication of Octavian also has strictly literary implications for Virgil. The close of the poem sees Virgil asserting his mastery of the Homeric mode of poetry and the providential world-view it was thought to embody.
