1 This article began its life as a conference paper (given at the ASCS/AULLA conference held in Feburary 1995 at the University of New England, Armidale) and then evolved into a chapter of my thesis on the use of colour imagery by the poets Catullus, Propertius, and Horace. I am very grateful to Professor Peter Toohey (Calgary) and Dr Anne Geddes (Adelaide) for their comments on this piece as a thesis chapter and also to Professor Toohey for his subsequent comments on my revision of the article. I would also like to thank Professor Elaine Fantham (Princeton) and Professor Emanuele Narducci (Florence) for the helpful remarks that they made on the chapter when examining my thesis. I also received many helpful comments and suggestions, not only at the ASCS/AULLA conference but also during two seminars which I gave on this paper in 2000, firstly at the University of Calgary and then at Cambridge. Finally I extend my gratitude to an anonymous CQ referee fo his/her encouraging remarks and suggestions for extending the scope of the piece.
