Huc ades! Una nota al lessico di Virgilio

Abstract

Huc ades is an expression Virgil uses four times in the Bucolics, and which is usually claimed to be his own invention, a probable suggestion from hymnodic poetry. Thanks to the information now available in digital libraries, my paper reflects on these claims, proposing some new observations.
