Abstract

A long meta-rhetorical and meta-poetical tradition links the image of the tuba to the enhancement of the stylistic apparatus and expressive efficacy. This topic culminates in classicist Roman literature of 4th-5th century AD (Claudianus, Sidonius, Prudentius, Macrobius); an epigraphic poem (CLE 1403 + 1399 Bücheler) is affected by this cultural climate: the anonymous author uses an auditory metaphor (tuba rhetorica) to praise the excellent rhetorical training of the deceased young people.
