Resumen

Proba's cento reusing Vergilian verses to retell Biblical narratives has met with both appreciation and disdain in the centuries since it was composed. This paper considers recent scholarly analyses of Proba's work alongside feminist approaches to Virgil, especially those set out in the 2021 special issue of the journal Vergilius on "Vergil and the Feminine," edited by Elena Giusti and Victoria Rimell, and asks what feminist criticism, with its emphasis on understanding gender and power as represented in texts, could bring to the study of Proba's work and its larger context.
