La De Luca, partendo dal testo di F.W. Lenz e G.C. Galinsky (Leiden 1971), ha curato un vasto ed approfondito commento del Panegyricus Messallae che le ha consentito di raccogliere numerose prove contro l'attribuzione di questa opera a Tibullo: il Panegyricus Messallae non è un'opera tibulliana, ma una esercitazione retorica che non può essere in alcun modo datata al 31 a.C. Ha inoltre indagato i rapporti del Panegyricus Messallae con la tradizione retorica dell'encomio e ha dato particolare attenzione alle poche, ma significative riprese di questo testo in autori tardo-antichi.
