Résumé
The study of the hexameter of Dracontius’ Romulea (proportion of dactyls and spondees, their positions and combinations in the four first feet, elisions, clausules and caesuras) shows that this hexameter, different in some respects from Dracontius’ other hexameters and very purist, is nearer to Statius’ and Valerius Flaccus’ hexameter than to Vergilius’ or Ovidius’, with some specific and personal features.
