En se criblant mutuellement d'origines obscures et dégradantes, decruauté, de lâcheté, d'incompétence oratoire et littéraire, dedébauches, de luxure, d'ivrognerie et autres traits infamants, Octavienet Marc Antoine, entre 44 et 30 a. C. n., tentèrent de démolirsystématiquement l'image de leur adversaire politique respectif auprèsde divers publics. Or, le rôle joué par ces invectives n'a pas encoresuffisamment retenu l'attention de la recherche, ce qui est d'autantplus regrettable que le genre rhétorique de la uituperatio seprête à merveille à une utilisation critique du concept de propagande etremet en question la primauté généralement accordée aux émissionsmonétaires et à la poésie. Par sa structure tripartite, ce livre offre, pour la première fois, une vue globale de la uituperatio de cettepériode, analysée tour à tour selon les thèmes rhétoriques desinvectives, les publics auxquels elle s'adresse, et les formes et lessupports par lesquels elle est véhiculée. Il démontre que, par savirulence et la vigueur de son expression, la uituperatio nedevient pas seulement une arme de guerre, mais préfigure aussi lesfondements idéologiques du Principat augustéen.
By blaming each other for obscure and degrading origins, cruelty, cowardice, oratorical and literary incompetence, debaucheries, luxury, drunkenness and other slanders, Octavian and Mark Antony, between 44-30BC, endeavoured to destroy their respective political foe's reputationin the eyes of various publics. Unfortunately, until now, invectiveshave not yet benefitted from the academic attention they deserve, whichis doubly regrettable as the rhetorical genre of uituperatio is aperfect illustration for the use of propaganda in Antiquity and helps tocontest the traditional focus put on coinage and poetry. Through itstripartite structure, the present book offers, for the first time, anencompassing view of the uituperatio of this period, analysed inturn according to the rhetorical themes of the invectives, the publicconcerned, and the forms and supports by which it is conveyed. Itdemonstrates that, by its srenuous and fierce expression, theuituperatio not only became a tool of war, but also prefiguredthe ideological basis of the Augustan Principate.
