Abstract
This study examines the structural function of the marriage-divorce theme in the second edition of Martial's book 10, whose main theme is the poet's decision to move back to Spain, after having spent more than thirty years in his beloved domina Rome. In the wake of recent works on intratextuality and especially on the structure of Martial's books, this paper considers the book's epigrams devoted to the marriage-divorce theme, declined in satiric as well as serious way, with the aim of enlightening links between texts, which the poet sets up to increase the book's compactness and to enrich at the same time individual poems with further meaning, inside a sophisticated texture that he presents to his generic lectors, real responsible of his lasting fame.
