The article discusses the archaic Greek view of men and human condition, through which we learn of the traditional poetic pessimism that considers the fragility, the limitation and the finitude of human nature in a courageous and no-illusions manner. A nature that by its intrinsic qualities distinguishes itself from that of the gods to whom it is the necessary referent for their hierarchic cosmic superiority. By doing so, it moves through Homer, Hesiod and Simonides, but focuses on Bacchylides' epinician melic poetry, specifically, Epinician 5, in order to highlight the themes that therein are as important as that of praise for the athletic victory: the theme of human condition and the instability of fortune and limitation of knowledge
