2 For the author-personae-reader one thinks of the work of W. Iser, Der implizite Leser (1972). For the internal structuring of Astronomica as a ‘story’ one could also consult M. Bal, Narratology. Introduction to the Theory of Narrative (1985), or I. de Jong, Narrators and Focalizers. The Presentation of the Story in the Iliad (particularly Chapter 2, ‘A Narratological Model of Analysis’, pp. 29–40) (1987).
