      ab: The article discusses various aspects of the rhetorical history of the so-called slender verse. It explores the analogy between human body and literary text, the identification of Calvus by Cicero as leading literary exponent of the Atticist movement in Rome, and the prominence of the anatomical metaphor in the late Republican discussion of the Attic style of oratory. It notes the use of metaphor in the interpretation of Latin elegy.
