N2  - Roman declaimers often use intertextuality to characterize a persona. This paper examines literary references in Minor Declamatio 259. The speech, defending an adulescens, echoes successively Virgil's Aeneid, Cicero's Divinatio in Caecilium, and comedy plots. Such a variety may be connected to the thema of declamation, which recalls ancient novel, a hybrid genre by definition. At the end of the speech, the young man appears as a suicidal lover: this performance brings him even closer to a novel protagonist. © 2018 Cappelli Editore.
