Resumen
SCHNIEBS, Alicia. Dubitatio and exemplum in Valerius Maximus: the operation of exemplarity and memory in Rome. Circe clás. mod. [online]. 2013, vol.17, n.1, pp.85-100. ISSN 1851-1724.
The work of Valerius Maximus enrolls in the political, socio-cultural and symbolic transformations of the advent of the Principate. We study the features and functions of dubitatio, one of the most idiosyncratic rhetorical figures of this author's style, as a textual markings which allows recover the position of the speaker as an agent of the exemplary discourse and memory, main focus of the text and of a context in which the elite is forced to redefine their identity and their role in the political scene.
