The conference is part of a research project dedicated to the 
structuring role the Roman Empire as a new political reality in the 
Mediterranean played in the development of literary genres even before 
the Principate, but especially during the rule of Augustus and during 
the imperial era. The first event, held on 29–30 September, 2023, was 
dedicated to the Roman Republic as ‘empire before Empire’. The second 
will deal with the Empire of the Emperors, still including the age of 
Augustus as a period of transition.
