tibulo
I have written something lately about Tibullus.
—Lo último que he escrito es algo sobre Tibulo.
Tibullus’ verse could have been his motto: “in solis sis tibi turba locis” (“alone, be a world unto yourself”).
Los versos de Tibulo podrían ser su lema: In solis sis tibi turba locis, «En la soledad sé un mundo para ti mismo».
In neglecting Tibullus and Propertius, Quintilian and the Plinies, Statius, Martial, even Terence and Plautus whose jargon full of neologisms, compound words and diminutives, could please him, but whose low comedy and gross humor he loathed, Des Esseintes only began to be interested in the Latin language with Lucan. Here it was liberated, already more expressive and less dull.
Excluidos Tibulo y Propercio, Quintiliano y los dos Plinios, Estacio, Marcial de Bilbilis, Terencio y Plauto, cuya jerga llena de neologismos, palabras compuestas y diminutivos lo atraía pero cuyo ingenio ruin y cuyo humor salado lo repelían, des Esseintes sólo comenzaba a interesarse en la lengua latina cuando llegaba a Lucano, en cuyas manos adquiría una nueva amplitud y se hacía más brillante y expresiva.
