Resumo
The concern that moves us in this dissertation is to discuss how death and funerary practices are presented as a political vehicle for aristocratic groups at
the time of the Principality of Augustus. We use the Consolatory to Livia
(Consolatio ad Liuiam), a document that comes to us with anonymous
authorship, intended for Livia Drusila, wife of Augustus, to comfort her for the
death of her son Nero Claudio Druso, which occurred in 9 BC. Our study sought
to analyze how human finitude, a biological factor, when reaching the imperial
house, provides social, religious, ritualistic, symbolic and intentional practices
that are performed by the living. The narrative manifests the conflicts,
indispositions and disputes in the spaces of power between the Iulia and Claudia
gentes around the imperial succession. We propose to understand the funerary
practices represented in the poetic discourse of Consolatory to Livia (Consolatio
ad Liuiam), as a discourse that concerns us with political practices in Antiquity;
discuss how the social context of death in the imperial environment leads to the
production of symbols of power and the social promotion of family memory; to
present the relationship between death and the sacralization of funeral spaces
based on the execution of collective rituals that legitimized aristocratic families
and their position in the civic community; and to reflect on the social and
political functions of the consolatory, since the poetic discourse legitimizes and
justifies the perpetuation of the Iulia and Claudia gentes in the spaces of power,
as well as presents us with the public conflicts that involve the imperial house.
