This is a translation of Book VII of Statius's Thebaid into Italian ottava rima. Publius Papinius Statius was a Roman poet of the 1st century CE, known primarily for his epic poem, the Thebaid, which recounts the conflict between Polynices and Eteocles for the throne of Thebes. Giulio Lisati provides this rendering in ottava rima, an Italian stanza form traditionally used for epic and narrative poetry. This work offers a unique perspective on a classical text, blending the grandeur of Roman epic with the lyrical possibilities of Italian verse.
