The Cambridge Companion to Pindar
Pindar was the single most important, canonical and influential lyric poet in the ancient Greek world, and he remains one of the most demanding and rewarding poets whose work has come down to us from antiquity. This volume represents the most comprehensive introduction to the poet and his reception yet published. Eighteen leading contemporary scholars contribute individual chapters that together help to provide a holistic understanding of Pindar'…
Fiction and Pragmatics in Ancient Greek Lyric
This chapter offers an analysis of the ways in which the language of Sappho’s poems makes use of pragmatic elements that evoke a link to an extratextual world. Through this analysis, the dominant interpretative paradigm is questioned that sees Sappho’s poetry as primarily embedded within a ritual performance context, as well as the alternative reading that explains some of its most salient features as due to strategies enabled by the adoption of …
Performance, Transmission, and the Loss of Hellenistic Lyric Poetry
Theogony and Titanomachy
The evidence for the presence of a Theogony within the Cycle rests on only two uncertain testimonies. The first is a rather vague sentence of Philo of Byblos, according to whom the Greeks took over earlier traditions from other cultures, particularly that of the Phoenicians, embellished them, and eventually supplanted the originals with their own borrowings: ‘hence Hesiod and the celebrated Cyclic poets fashioned Theogonies and Gigantomachies and…
The Greek Epic Cycle and its Ancient Reception
The poems of the Epic Cycle are assumed to be the reworking of myths and narratives which had their roots in an oral tradition predating that of many of the myths and narratives which took their present form in the Iliad and the Odyssey. The remains of these texts allow us to investigate diachronic aspects of epic diction as well as the extent of variation within it on the part of individual authors - two of the most important questions in modern…
Parallela Graeco-Latina
Dealing with fragmentary texts is an unavoidable task for anyone working on the Greco-Roman world with the awareness that only a tiny portion of the texts produced in antiquity has survived the perilous process of transmission. Since the Renaissance, generations of scholars have painstakingly collected and sifted quotations, paraphrases and allusions in later authors and grammatical sources, laying the foundation for our knowledge of large parts …
The Hesiodic Catalogue of Women
The Catalogue of Women, ascribed to Hesiod, one of the greatest figures of early hexameter poetry, maps the Greek world, its evolution and its heroic myths through the mortal women who bore children to the gods. In this collection a team of international scholars offers an attempt to explore the poem's meaning, significance and reception. Individual chapters examine the organization and structure of the poem, its social and political context, its…
