  • {FREE} the Iliad and the Odyssey Ebook
    THE ILIAD AND THE ODYSSEY PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Homer,Jan Parker,George Chapman,Tom Griffith | 976 pages | 01 Aug 2000 | Wordsworth Editions Ltd | 9781840221176 | English | Herts, United Kingdom The Iliad and Odyssey Linguistic analysis suggests that the Iliad was composed slightly before the Odyssey , and that Homeric formulae preserve older features than other parts of the poems. The Homeric poems were composed in unrhymed dactylic hexameter ; ancient Greek metre was quantity-based rather than stress-based. These habits aid the extemporizing bard, and are characteristic of oral poetry. For instance, the main words of a Homeric sentence are generally placed towards the beginning, whereas literate poets like Virgil or Milton use longer and more complicated syntactical structures. Homer then expands on these ideas in subsequent clauses; this technique is called parataxis. The so-called ' type scenes ' typische Scenen , were named by Walter Arend in He noted that Homer often, when describing frequently recurring activities such as eating, praying , fighting and dressing, used blocks of set phrases in sequence that were then elaborated by the poet. The 'Analyst' school had considered these repetitions as un-Homeric, whereas Arend interpreted them philosophically. Parry and Lord noted that these conventions are found in many other cultures. C, B, A has been observed in the Homeric epics. Opinion differs as to whether these occurrences are a conscious artistic device, a mnemonic aid or a spontaneous feature of human storytelling. Both of the Homeric poems begin with an invocation to the Muse. The orally transmitted Homeric poems were put into written form at some point between the eighth and sixth centuries BC.

See our timeline. These "Greeks" are relative late-comers to the area we now call "Greece" and likely originated to the East of Black Sea, around the area now called the Caucasus between the Black and Caspian seas, where Russia, Turkey and N. Iran meet. The story of Prometheus -- shackled to mount Caucus -- shows strong connections between their original culture and that of the Sumerians etc. So these Mycenaean people were both influenced by and influenced other great civilizations even before there was written The Iliad and the Odyssey or, for that matter, writing. Before the Mycenaeans arrived in the region, earlier "Greek" cultures worshipped ancient fertility goddesses probably related to Ishtar, Aphrodite, even Athena and Hera, and appear to have lived a rather peaceable, agricultural lifestyle we assume this because archeological digs show these pre-Mycenaean people lived without military weapons or fortifications From this perspective, The Iliad is a work of military propaganda that justifies Mycenaen control of the most valuable sea passage of age the Bosporusand The Odyssey justifies colonizing Italy and Sicily to the West. These Ancient and even Classical Greeks are best viewed as a culture rather than as a unified people or "nation". Achilles is a king in his own right, as is Odysseus, Menaleaus, Agamemnon etc. This distinction is important to understanding the Iliad : Achilles rightfully sees himself as Agamemnon's equal.

  • Homeric Emulation and Epic Reinvention in Nonnos' Dionysiaka
    i Homeric Emulation and Epic Reinvention in Nonnos’ Dionysiaka A thesis submitted by Christopher David Parkinson in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Classics Tufts University August 2017 Adviser: Professor Marie-Claire Beaulieu ii Abstract The AD 5th century epic, the Dionysiaka, by Nonnos of Panopolis contains substantial allusions to earlier works, most notably the works of Homer. The following study examines elements in the Dionysiaka which emulate Homer and argues that the purpose of this emulation was to compete, and ultimately supplant, the Homeric Cycle. This work further argues that this goal was a result of the late period in which Nonnos wrote. It proposes that the Dionysiaka aims to outdo Homer’s scenes and style mechanically but thematically it departs from Homer and attempts to reframe the traditional pagan epic to fit the culture of the 5th century. Ultimately, this thesis argues that Nonnos was part of a failed movement in late antiquity to rectify no longer operative but still prevalent pre-Christian culture with Christian and Neo-Platonic ideas. iii Acknowledgments I would like to acknowledge a number of people who have helped drive this project to completion. I would like to thank Professor Marie-Claire Beaulieu and Professor Steven Hirsch for their guidance and edits on this project as well as Professor David Proctor for serving on my defense committee. I would like to give my thanks and love to my partner, Natalie, for her perpetual patience, support, and editing assistance. I am further grateful to my friends Adam, Corey, and Tianran who each, in their own ways, showed their constant support.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original subm itted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again - beginning below the first row and continuing on until com plete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

    EVANGELIET ENLIGT HOMEROS: FRÅN EVA TILL MARIA Maria Sturesson ([email protected]) Lunds universitet Abstract: This article presents and discusses the so-called Homeric centos attributed to the fifth-century Byzantine empress Eudocia. More specifically it looks at the passages about Eve and Mary, whose length in this Gospel narrative far exceed those of the New Testament texts. Eve and Mary frame the story of Jesus’ life and death and can therefore be seen as an interpretative framework for this narrative. The Homeric centos, or Homerocentones, rewrite the Gospel story using verses from the Homeric epics and in the presentation of the two aforementioned characters the history of salvation is revealed. Eve allows, although unwittingly, sin to enter the world. And through Mary the word of salvation spreads as she receives the announcement of the resurrection. In the presentation of Mary, the cento dwells on the motif of grief. Similes and verses from Homer describing grief build up a character, whose accumulated grief in this narrative becomes something of a virtue. The elaboration of their char- acters in a Gospel narrative, and the interconnectedness of the two in the cento, thus inform an interpretation of Gospel stories in relation to classical literature. Keywords: Mary as Mother, Eve, Homerocentones, Aelia Eudocia PNA 31/2016 69 ARTIKLAR Introduktion Omskrivningar, parafraser och poetiska bearbetningar av de nytesta- mentliga evangelierna är en företeelse som tar sig olika uttryck i olika tider, där litterära gestaltningar av bibliska karaktärer, teologier och föreställningar med olika form och syfte breder ut sig på en kyrko- och litteraturhistorisk karta.

  • Homer and Rhapsodic Competition in Performance1
    Oral Tradition, 16/1 (2001): 129-167 Homer and Rhapsodic Competition in Performance1 Derek Collins Introduction One legacy of Homeric studies since the pathbreaking work of Milman Parry, Albert Lord, Gregory Nagy, and John Miles Foley has been an emphasis on the earliest stages of composition and performance. These scholars have shown in detail how poet-singers compose while they perform, and perform while they compose epic poetry. However, we have yet to apply the valuable insights gained from their research to later stages of a poetic tradition, particularly after the poetic “texts” have become stable and written down, while live performances of these “texts” continue. The time has now come to attempt such an application, but with important qualifications. This is because a performance tradition that takes place against a body of fixed texts is governed by different rules, as it were, than one that is as yet in a more fluid stage. For one, audience expectation will be different, and greater allusive precision may be achieved by live performers who modify and improvise textual elements to surprise, shock, or delight their audiences. It is important to stress at the outset that a fixed text need not be an impediment, and indeed it may be an impetus, to the contingent and improvisational demands of live poetic performance. Scholars are only beginning to apply these insights to the long tradition of rhapsodic performances of Homeric poetry.2 Although rhapsodes have received increasing attention in recent scholarship,3 there has 1 Earlier versions of this paper were given at the annual meeting of the American Philological Association (December 1998), and before audiences at the Universities of Michigan, Iowa, and Missouri.
