Abstract

The story of Canace and Macareus is presented in the letter number 11 of the Ovidian Heroides. It is a common place to consider that its literary model is the Aeolus of Euripides. In this paper I will consider the ambiguity raised in Heroides 11 in relation to the identification of Aeolus himself as father of Canace and Macareus. This ambiguity will inevitably guide us back to a mytographical problem of greater scope. Finally, I will analyse the thematic connections and deviations between Heroides 11 and Aelous, thanks to the edition of POxy 2457.
