How Women Became Poets
Lyric Poetry and Social Identity in Archaic Greece by Jessica M. Romney
BOOK REVIEWS/COMPTES RENDUS 321 their performance because they can be requested, or the way epigram and lament attach to enduring objects), and describes the formal features that help them endure. He undoubtedly succeeds in demonstrating that the orality of the Homeric poems includes textuality (thus defined). The tension between virtual and actual arises again to illuminate the limits of the argument. A striking expression of this tension is the…
Virginity Revisited
Andromache Karanika. Voices at Work
Voices at Work: Women, Performance, and Labor in Ancient Greece sets itself an ambitious agenda: to study work songs of Ancient Greece and explore how these informed early Greek poetics, while uncovering some lost voices of women singers and providing new information about the context of this genre, normally considered a lower species of the song culture. Although she focuses on the pre-Classical period, Andromache Karanika also provides some mat…
The Age of Grace
Helen of Troy
168 PHOENIX Comedy’s focus on extreme vulgarity. Acosta-Hughes (Chapter Seventeen) discusses the involvement of hellenistic poets, especially Callimachus, with the theatre and examines those works of Theocritus that seem to evoke performative contexts. Though addressing a dauntingly complex topic, this volume manages to be both comprehensive and accessible, with almost all its chapters providing important insights into a variety of issues. Agreea…
Intimations of Immortality
The Education of Achilles
1. Readers of the Iliad have ever understood that the well-known story of Thetis' abandonment of Peleus shortly after their wedding is foreign to Homer. Aristarchus thought it a post-Homeric invention of poets1, and indeed the version to which he alludes, that Achilles was brought to Chiron when he was twelve days old, appears very likely to come from a lost poem: the word ? ?exaxalo? which he quotes his comment is one that would conveniently fil…

Cyrene and Cheiron
Sappho, Aphrodite, and the Muses
The Divine Twins in Early Greek Poetry
Alcman’s Partheneion
Jason and Cheiron
NOTHING from the extant remains of Greek lyric is more impressive than Pindar's Fourth Pythian Ode. It is the longest complete poem remaining from the period between the epic and Attic tragedy. Even in the Pindaric corpus it stands unique in its length and unsurpassed in its brilliance. Thirteen full triads make it well over twice as long as its closest rivals, which have only five. Of these thirteen triads eight are devoted to the story of Jason…
Achilles to Thetis
Thalia Delighting in Song
Theater Outside Athens
This volume brings together archeologists, art historians, philologists, literary scholars, political scientists, and historians to articulate the ways in which western Greek theater was distinct from that of the Greek mainland and, at the same time, to investigate how the two traditions interacted. The chapters intersect and build on each other in their pursuit of a number of shared questions and themes: the place of theater in the cultural life…
Mystic Cults in Magna Graecia
Virginity Revisited
Voices from the Underworld
The following pair of dialogues was composed with the aim of presenting Graeco-Roman views about the female body to a class of students engaged in the study of women in classical antiquity. This semi-dramatic structure, in which several interlocutors take distinct positions on a selected topic, has the advantage of eliciting a high degree of involvement by the students and consequent engagement in the subject matter. The dialogues do not follow t…
