• "On the use of animal images in Stazio's Thebaid in relation to male and female figures. Their occurrence is linked to the transgression of qualities or expectations of this kind, for men the corruption of the virile virtus, for women the refusal of their maternal role and the ambition to self-affirm and acquire independence. In both cases the transgression is determined by the anger that dominates the epic poem. Animal metaphors become a point of convergence, a common place where gender roles oscillate and social limina vanish in favor of primitive chaos."

Silv. 2.4 makes use of catalogs of birds at 16-23 and 26-28, which play off of Ovid (Am. 2.6; Met. 2.544-65, 5.677-78, 8.236-59, 6.424-674) in order to locate Statius within the Latin tradition and to comment on the changing role of the poet under the emperors.

• "Statius (Th. 12.177-179), Valerius Flaccus (1.749 ff.), and Silius Italicus (2.675-680) all offer up depictions of female characters who take their own lives. But unlike their literary sisters, whose suicides are an aspect of or the result of their gender, the Flavian epic heroines commit suicide despite their gender. These episodes owe more to the historical accounts of suicide in the Julio-Claudian era than to their epic predecessors. This connection may account for why these suicides seem overtly political in their opposition to tyranny. The negative depiction of female suicide may also be indicative of a cultural backlash against the kinds of political suicides prominent in the 1st cent. A.D."

• Understanding of the Sminthiac hymn through the topoi prescribed by the rhetor Menander, De gen. dem. 17. Statius is indebted to the Sminthiac prescription, and references thereto tie the hymn in well with the Thebaid as a whole.

• "The reading magnae data Fata neci at Theb. 10.835 takes into account not only the authority of fata in the manuscript tradition and the suitability of Fata in the epic context, but also the grammatical plausibility of the clause.
