We can be grateful that Carlon alerts us so lucidly to Pliny's use of characterization and idealized images, and to the deliberation with which he deploys rhetorical structure, diction, and content, in pursuit of his autobiographical intent. --BMCR Author InformationJacqueline Carlon is Assistant Professor of Classics at the University of Massachusetts, Boston.
