| Nagle, R., "Polynices the Charioteer: Statius, Thebaid 6.296-549," Échos du monde classique = Classical Views 18.3 (1999): 381-396 • "Statius' portrait of Polynices as a charioteer is a metaphor, bolstered by a series of patronymics, for his ambition to follow in Oedipus' footsteps and assume the Theban throne. The analogy drawn between Polynices and Phaeton highlights the problems in trying to succeed a famous father." |
| Nagle, R., "Statius' Horatian Lyrics, Silvae 4.5 and 4.7," The Classical World 102.2 (2009): 143-57 • Statius makes use of Horatian forms and motifs, such as the simple house in the country and the literary help of a friend, but his tone is fervent and sincere, rather than dry and ironic. Statius is also fully aware of Horace's generic choices, but makes different choices for his own work with no apparent anxiety. With many literary allusions, the poor and humble poet praises the wealth and public accomplishments of Septimius Severus and Vibius Maximus, and at the same time shows how like-minded they are in their attitudes to literature, friendship, and wealth. |

| Newlands, Carole Elizabeth, "Statius and Ovid: Transforming the Landscape," Transactions and Proceedings of the American Philological Association 134.1 (2004): 133-55 • Three landscapes that illustrate the Thebaid's debt to Ovid are the sacred grove of Diana (4.419-442), the Nemean grove (Books 4-6), and the river landscape of the Ismenos (9.360-373). These landscapes are disconnected from the gods and provide a canvas on which Statius displays the evil of the war. Humans are held accountable for the destruction of the state as much as for the loss of a paradise described in Ovidian terms as a locus amoenus. |

Anderson on his Seventy-Fifth Birthday, Lang classical studies 15 (New York: Lang, 2005): 151-73 • Silv. 2.4 and 2.5 rewrite Ovid for the Flavian age, placing a positive value on luxury and withdrawal. Drawing on the traditions of the fable, Statius can be seen as a new authoritative voice that locates social criticism in praise itself. |
| Newlands, C., "Book-Ends: Statius Silvae 2.1 and 2.7," Ramus 35.1 (2006): 63-77 • "The first and last poems of Silv. 2 (1, on the death of a child of low birth, and 7, on the death of Lucan) have been dismissed as wearisomely rhetorical and have been largely overlooked in scholarship on consolationes as they endorse lamentation, elaborate upon it, and thus run counter to philosophical strictures against overt grief. Issues of class also surely play a role in their dismissal as trivial poems. A proper understanding of the social circumstances in which these poems are embedded, however, will show that they can offer insight into contemporary Flavian society." |
| Newlands, Carole Elizabeth, "Mothers in Statius's Poetry: Sorrows and Surrogates," Helios 33.2 (2006): 203-26 • Despite the reverence for the idea of the mother in Roman society, there are no ideal mothers in the poetry of Statius. In the Silvae, Statius envisages an alternative family structure in which men usurp women's traditional role of childrearing. Examples include Theb. 3.135-146, 9.360-362. and 12.791-793; Silv. 3.3.119-121, 5.2.75-79, 5.3.64-66 and 241-245, 5.5.81-85; and other passages. |

Both poets largely avoid the themes of portents and the anger of the gods and blur the boundaries between poetry and history, fiction and plain-speaking. In contrast, Martial 4.44 uses the Hellenistic genre of epideictic epigram. |

While both poems draw on literary topoi about trees from Horace through Ovid and Lucan, they interact with one another in word and theme. This intersubjective form of literary engagement involves both opposition and complementarity ; read as a diptych, these poems reveal the literary and political potential of the occasional genre" (from LAPH). |

Arion played a significant role in the Thebaid as king Adrastus's horse; in Silv. 1.1, Arion's imagined reaction to Domitian's equestrian statue offers an interpretive crux in the encomium. Through allusion to his own epic, Statius suggests a possible method of reading the first of his Silvae as a critical complement to his epic in contemporary Rome" (from LAPH). |

Construction and deconstruction of these oppositions reveal disjunction between the initial narrative portrayal of a virtuous Argos dragged into war by an unjust Jupiter and the counter story of past Argive sin. Cracks in Ornytus's rhetorical attempt to condemn Creon's behavior at 12.155-157 demonstrate the difficulty of assigning simple moral judgments within the poem's complexities." |
