PAR M. GIN, CONSEILLER AU GRAND-CONSEIL TOME PREMIER. ne - A PARIS, DE L’IMPRIMERIE DE DIDOT L’AÎNÉ. M.DCC.LXXXVL AU ROI. SIRE, VOTRE MAJESTÉ, ayant permis que ma traduction des OEuvres completes d’Homere lui fût dédiée, a pensé, sans doute, que le tableau des maux inséparables de la guerre la plus juste étoit propre à faire goûter à ses sujets le bienfait inestimable de la paix- que sa sagesse vient de procurer à l’Europe. Les poèmes d’Homere appartiennent encore à un autre titre à VOTRE MAJESTÉ. Né parmi ces nations qui, dans les siecles postérieurs, se mon- trerent si jalouses de leur prétendue indépendance, mais soumises alors à des rois, peres et pasteurs des peuples, suivant l’énergique expression de notre poëte, Homere a parlé dignement de ce centre unique d’autorité, nécessaire pour arrêter les efforts des intérêts par- ticuliers contre l’intérêt public. a: Illustre fils d’Atrée, roi des hommes, Agamemnon , dit le sage a; Nestor, je parlerai de toi, je commencerai par toi, parceque tu (c regnes sur un grand peuple, que Jupiter t’a donné le sceptre et a tout ce qui appartient à l’exercice de la justice, afin que tu prennes ce conseil pour eux. C’est à toi qu’il convient de parler le premier, ce d’écouter ensuite, et de procurer aux autres les moyens de te dire a ce que leur esprit leur suggere pour l’utilité commune ;d’ordonner a enfin, car à toi seul appartient l’empire n. Si le traducteur aspire à quelque gloire, il I’espere, SIRE, de la profession publique que les circonstances l’ont mis à portée de faire de ces vérités saintes dont l’amour est, depuis tant de siecles, le caractere distinctif des François (*). Eh! quel monarque, SIRE, est plus digne d’inspirer et de soutenir cet esprit national, qu’un roi qui chérit, par-dessus tous ses titres, le titre glorieux d’ami de la justice?

DISCOURS PRÉLIMINAIRE AYANT conçu le projet de faire connoître les poèmes d’Homere à ceux de mes concitoyens à ui la langue grecque n’est pas familiere, la sorte ’ d’oubli auquel l’Odyssée sembloit condamnée ’ dans notre nation m’avoit déterminé, lors de la premiere édition de ce livre , à m’essayer d’abord sur ce poeme. J ’entre dans un champ fertile que e ne crois pas entièrement défriché ; je profiterai des travaux de ceux qui m’ont précédé. Ainsi le nautonnier ins- truit par l’expérience évite des écueils contre les- . quels des pilotes plus habiles ont souvent échoué. ’ Les détails de a vie d’Homere se perdent dans la nuit des tem s. Apeine peut-on regarder comme constants que ques faits que , suivant la commune Opinion , ce poète nous a transmis lui-même dans l’Odyssée , sous l’allégorie ingénieuse des aventures d’Ulysse. Je les ai recueillis dans l’introduction de l’OdNion objet ssée. , dans ce discours, I est de jetter un V coup d’œil rapide sur la marche de l’Iliade , etle but moral qu’Homere s’estproposé; surie génie de no- tre langue, ra prOchée de celle d’Homere; enfin sur la nature clé notre versification , et le genre de 1. K xstyle DISCOURSauquel e me suis efforcé d’atteindre dans ces traductions. On peut comparer l’Iliade à une vaste galerie de tableaux du même maître , où les fureurs de Mars s’offrent sous tous leurs aspects, sous toutes leurs formes ; dans laquelle le spectateur , fatigué de l’hor- reur des combats , est sans cesse délassé par des Objets cham êtres, naïfs , touchants , sublimes, ef- fet de la mu titude de com araisons que ce poème q renferme , toutes tirées de ’gadmirable spectacle de la nature, tandis que l’œil se repose par intervalles sur de grands tableaux qui entrent dans le plan gé- néral pour former l’ensemble le plus parfait, tels que les conseils des dieux, les remords d’Hélene , les adieux d’Andromaque , la toilette de Junon , la ceinture de Vénus, les armes d’Achille, les funé- railles de Patrocle , celles d’Hector. Ce sont ces grands effets qui ont rendu Homère le modele de tous les poètes, de tous les orateurs , de tous les peintres, de tous les artistes, tantlan- ciens que modernes. Ce seul point de vue répond à la critique la plus a parente qui ait été faite du poème du courroux " ’Achille. Quel sujet, dit-on , pour un poème épique , que l’absence du héros ui en est le principal Objet! Mais dans cette simp’licité même éclate avec plus de majesté le génie du pere de la poésie épique. Achille paroit dans le remier chant de l’Iliade ; il force Agamemnon de livrer sa captive our appai- ser Apollon irrité. Dans le neuvieme, il)5e montre inexorable aux prieres et aux larmes d’Ulysse , d’A- PRÉLIMINAIRE. xj jax, de Phœnix, députés par les Grecs C1pour fléchir son courroux. Dans le onzreme, éni’u ’une tendre pitié à la vue de Machaon blessé que Nestor ramene dans sa tente , à la vue de la flamme rête à consu- mer les vaisseaux des Grecs, il pren la résolution d’envoyer Patrocle , à la tête des Thessaliens , re- pousser les Troyens. Depuis l’époque de la mort de son compagnon , à la In du seizieme chant, le fils de Pelée ne quitte plus la scène. Lors même qu’il est absent, il est annoncé dans tOut le poème. Si Homère vante la beauté , la noble prestance d’un héros: cc Il étoit, dit-il, le plus beau des enfants de cc la Grece , après l’irréprochable fils de Pélée a). S’il ’ loue l’intréplde courage d’un guerrier: (c Il étoit le (c plus courageux des Grecs , après l’invincible fils cc de Pélée». Ainsi tous les héros dont on admire les exploits dans les premiers chants de l’Iliade , sont, s’il est permis de parler ainsi, les précurseurs d’Achille; et uels hommes! le prudent Ulysse , les deux Ajax, lefils de Tydée , Diomede , qui ne craint pas d’affronter le dieu de la guerre.

  • CROSSJNG the STRAITS: the PERSIANS in THRACE' Jan P. Stronk Tn Or Shortly Before 5131, King Darius Collected a Large Fleet From
    TALANTA XXX-XXXJ (1998-1999) CROSSJNG THE STRAITS: THE PERSIANS IN THRACE' Jan P. Stronk Tn or shortly before 5131, King Darius collected a large fleet from among the Greek cities in Asia Minor and sent it to the Pontic coast. A Greek engineer, Mandrocles, constructed a boat-bridge across the Bosporus. As Herodotus states (Hdt. IV.87), two marble memorial ste­ lae commemorated this feat in Greek and "Assyrian characters", by which he can have meant Old Persian, Elamite, or Akkadian. The Persian army crossed the bridge and entered Thrace, following the fleet. People from the West Pontic coast until the Ister, including Greek colonies and Thracian tribes, submitted to the Persians without resist­ ance. Without problems the army continued its march to the Ister. Meanwhile a pontoon bridge had been constructed across the river. Darius crossed the Danube and started a campaign against the Scythians of the South Russian steppes. As Bury puts it: "Cyrus had conquered the eastern coasts of the Mediterranean; Cambyses had completed and secured that conquest on the south side by the subjec­ tion of Egypt; it remained for Darius to complete and secure his empire on the north side by the reduction of Thrace" (Bury 1970, 238). A key function in this policy was preserved for "The Straits", the Bosporus and the Dardanelles. Control of the Straits was in more than one respect important for Persia. First because the Straits connected rather than divided the Thracians living on either sides of the Straits (cf. Stronk 1995, 59-60), second because mastery of the Straits facili­ tated the hegemony of the Ionian states in the Euxine region,2 third * In 1994, I submitted a paper with this title to the Thracia Pontica VI conference at Soz.opol (Bulgaria).

Zeus is the child of Cronus and Rhea, and the youngest of his siblings. In most traditions he is married to Hera, although, at the oracle of Dodona, his consort is Dione: according to the Iliad, he is the father of Aphrodite by Dione.[5] He is known for his erotic escapades.

No. _Zv_^ _ii ALL RIGHTS RESERVED INTRODUCTION Our grandfathers regarded the study of mythology as a necessary adjunct to a polite education, without a knowledge of which neither the classical nor the more modem poets could be read with understanding. But it is now recognised that upon mythology and folklore rests the basis of the new science of Comparative Religion. The evolution of religion from mythology has now been made plain. It is a law of evolution that, though the parent types which precede certain forms are doomed to perish, they yet bequeath to their descendants certain of their characteristics ; and although mythology has perished (in the civilised world, at least), it has left an indelible stamp not only upon modem religions, but also upon local and national custom. The work of Fruger, Lang, Immerwahr, and others has revolutionised mythology, and has evolved from the unexplained mass of tales of forty years ago a definite and systematic science.

AUTHOR OF MODERN AND ANTJENT GEOGRAPHY FOR THE USE OF SCHOOLS. STEREOTYPED BY J. HOWE. PHILADELPHIA: BLANQHARD AND LEA. 1851. G- PREFATORY NOTE INDEX OF DR. BUTLER'S ANTIENT ATLAS. It is to be observed in this Index, which is made for the sake of complete and easy refer- ence to the Maps, that the Latitude and Longitude of Rivers, and names of Countries, are given from the points where their names happen to be written in the Map, and not from any- remarkable point, such as their source or embouchure. The same River, Mountain, or City &c, occurs in different Maps, but is only mentioned once in the Index, except very large Rivers, the names of which are sometimes repeated in the Maps of the different countries to which they belong. The quantity of the places mentioned has been ascertained, as far as was in the Author's power, with great labor, by reference to the actual authorities, either Greek prose writers, (who often, by the help of a long vowel, a diphthong, or even an accent, afford a clue to this,) or to the Greek and Latin poets, without at all trusting to the attempts at marking the quantity in more recent works, experience having shown that they are extremely erroneous.
