Summary/Abstract: The unity of the structure of the 3rd eclogue is given by the close connection of the ecphrasis, the invocations and the riddles relating to each other, that contributes to revealing of the hidden contents. In the allusions included in these three pairs are recalled the didactic poetry with its Hesiodic traditions, the Theocritean bucolics, the neoteric poetry as well as the elegy. Th is variety of genres is present also in the different style-levels of the eclogue, completed by some comic-mimic characteristics, because of that the third eclogue can be related with the sixth within the whole book.
