Gaius Valerius Flaccus Was A First Century Roman Poet That Flourished During The Flavian Dynasty. His Sole Surviving Work Is The Latin Epic Poem ‘argonautica’, Which Owes A Large Debt To The Epic Poem Commonly Ascribed To Apollonius Of Rhodes, Composed Four Centuries Before. It Narrates The Story Of Jason And The Argonauts And Their Quest For The Golden Fleece, With Many Differences From Its Greek Model. Valerius Is Notably More Descriptive In His Portrayal Of Character, While Indicating The Influence Of Virgil. An Important Work Of The Latin Silver Age, The Epic Poem’s Greatest Strength Is The Portrayal Of The Relationship Between Medea And Jason, Especially In The Vivid Depiction Of The Growth Of Medea’s Love.
