摘要：The Rape of Lucretia is a fascinating episode of Roman history, which stretched outside the caveats of historical archives and became a recurring motif in philosophical writings, conduct books, poetry and art. The socio-cultural standing of this episode is undeniable and when we contrast the representation of this historical in two different art forms, one sees a fascinating amalgam of two distinct yet connected art forms poetry and painting. Through Titians’ and Shakespeare’s rendering of this episode, this paper would try to understand the structural nexus of these two art forms and how a comparative study of these two distinct interpretation reveal the workings of the mind of the artist and renders clear the socio-cultural patina of Art.
