Chapter Thirteen. Ion of Chios, Sophocles, and Myth
Ion may have enhanced his own reputation simply by virtue of composing his Epidemiai . In his memoir, as cited by Athenaeus, Ion describes a merry evening spent with Sophocles. Sophocles lived long and was fully active as soldier and citizen; the biographical tradition, ever a creative genre, invests him with a striking and complex personality. Ion may not have lived so long or made such an impact in public life, but his talent and activities are…

Poseidon, walls, and narrative complexity in the Homeric Iliad
The sea god Poseidon is taken for granted as such in Classical Greek literature and iconography. Yet one does not have to look far in the literary or iconographical sources to find material that conveys a somewhat different impression. This has been noticed, and in the past there have been some interesting attempts to surmise Poseidon's origins and significance from the evidence at hand. This paper is not an attempt to reconstruct a putative Myce…
Translating the Metaphor: Problems Solved and Circumvented in Staging Aristophanes’ Thesmophoriazusae
When the decision was made to present Aristophanes’ Thesmophoriazusae, a number of problems presented themselves, not the least of which was the title.

Some of the problems were those common to every play of Aristophanes, and others were peculiar to this play.
Marcellinus'’ Life of Thucydides: Criticism and criteria in the biographical tradition
The focus of this paper will be the critical material in the particular Life of Thucydides which is attributed to ‘Marcellinus’. 1 After some preliminary remarks about the extant Lives , I shall identify the critical material to be discussed, and proceed to examine its composition and possible origin. I shall suggest that, like the biographical material, the critical passages are a compilation of material from different sources and show a variety…
Dynasty and Family in the Athenian City State: A View From Attic Tragedy
Greek tragedy shows a serious preoccupation with family concerns. Some of these concerns seem beyond the scope of ordinary family experience, particularly in the matter of the behaviour of women. The apparent discrepancy between historical evidence and the literary presentation of women has long been noted and variously explained. I want to suggest that this discrepancy reflects a way of distinguishing between the objectives and behaviour of the …
