Iliad Aristeia Chart – 3Rd Period 2018 Iliad Aristeia Chart – 3rd Period 2018 Aristeia: a soldier’s highest moment of glory in war, when he fights so bravely and single-mindedly as to experience no fear and to appear nearly invincible Instructions: Keep track of the aristeias in the epic as we read.

Armoring: What Page 297, 11. 18-50 “Hector leapt to the ground does the hero put on, from his chariot fully armed and in what order? Be 1. “wrapped his legs with well and brandishing two sharp detailed! made greaves” spears” (lines 245-246) 2. “strapped the breastplate round his chest” (ornate guest- gift for Ag. leaving for Troy) 3. “slung his sword” 4. “well-wrought shield” 5. “set his helmet” 6. “two tough spears” So fearsome looking “awestruck at the sight Athena and Hera loosed a crack of thunder” 3.

Return to battle and N/A grand duel with an important enemy: Who is the central enemy that the hero faces during his aristeia? What leads to the battle, and what happens during the battle? 6. Slaying of the N/A important enemy with eventual boasting: How does the hero slay the enemy? How does he boast? 7. Conflict over the N/A body of the slain enemy: What happens to the body of the slain enemy? What happens as a result of the slaying? Does this lead to future conflicts? Things to Consider about the Aristeias: What differences emerge when you compare the four aristeias? Why causes these differences, and what might they teach us? Thematically speaking, what does Homer reveal through each of the four aristeias? How do the aristeias work to enhance the plot of the epic? .

    Virgil, Aeneid 11 (Pallas & Camilla) 1–224, 498–521, 532–96, 648–89, 725–835 G Latin text, study aids with vocabulary, and commentary ILDENHARD INGO GILDENHARD AND JOHN HENDERSON A dead boy (Pallas) and the death of a girl (Camilla) loom over the opening and the closing part of the eleventh book of the Aeneid. Following the savage slaughter in Aeneid 10, the AND book opens in a mournful mood as the warring parti es revisit yesterday’s killing fi elds to att end to their dead. One casualty in parti cular commands att enti on: Aeneas’ protégé H Pallas, killed and despoiled by Turnus in the previous book. His death plunges his father ENDERSON Evander and his surrogate father Aeneas into heart-rending despair – and helps set up the foundati onal act of sacrifi cial brutality that caps the poem, when Aeneas seeks to avenge Pallas by slaying Turnus in wrathful fury. Turnus’ departure from the living is prefi gured by that of his ally Camilla, a maiden schooled in the marti al arts, who sets the mold for warrior princesses such as Xena and Wonder Woman. In the fi nal third of Aeneid 11, she wreaks havoc not just on the batt lefi eld but on gender stereotypes and the conventi ons of the epic genre, before she too succumbs to a premature death. In the porti ons of the book selected for discussion here, Virgil off ers some of his most emoti ve (and disturbing) meditati ons on the tragic nature of human existence – but also knows how to lighten the mood with a bit of drag.

  • Emasculating Jason: Narratology and Gender in Apollonius’ Argonautica 3-4
    Emasculating Jason: Narratology and Gender in Apollonius’ Argonautica 3-4 That Apollonius constantly reworks details, scenes, vocabulary, and more from the Homeric poems has long been established. The specific Homeric echoes of the confrontation between Jason and Medea in Book 3 of Apollonius’ Argonautica have not gone unnoticed, either. In particular, Richard Hunter’s notes reworkings of the confrontation between Hector and Achilles of Iliad 22 in Argonautica 3 (Hunter, 1989). The focus on Apollonian connections to the Homeric tradition, however, has largely been based on linguistic similarities, whereas other points of connection, especially thematic relationships, between Apollonius and the Homeric epics have gone unremarked (Lennox, 1980). A detailed analysis of Apollonius’ reworking of Homeric type-scenes in general, and of how Apollonius does this in the confrontation between Jason and Medea, has yet to be accomplished. Campbell’s commentary, while noting the similarities between this section and the meeting of Odysseus and Nausicaa in Odyssey 6—certainly an important connection—does not note the connections to Homeric aristeiai (Campbell 1983). Beye has noted that “Jason’s meeting with Medea has the climactic tension of an aristeia,” but delves no deeper and moves on to discussing Jason’s contest as the aristeia “truer to the epic tradition,” (Beye 1982). Apollonius tends to portray Homeric elements in quite unusual ways, and so he does here: Jason begins an aristeia, entering not a battle of swords and spears, but a contest of wits and words with Medea. The scene contains the tropes commonly found in such type-scenes in the Homeric epics, and certain elements draw specific comparisons to aristeiai in the Iliad.

All rights reserved. 1 ABSTRACT Listening for the Plot: The Role of Desire in the Iliad’s Narrative by Rachel Hart Lesser Doctor of Philosophy in Classics and the Designated Emphasis in Women, Gender and Sexuality University of California, Berkeley Professor Mark Griffith, Chair This dissertation is the first study to identify desire as a fundamental dynamic in the Iliad that structures its narrative and audience reception. Building on Peter Brooks’ concept of “narrative erotics,” I show how the desires of Akhilleus and his counterpart Helen drive and shape the Iliad’s plot and how Homer captures and maintains the audience’s attention by activating its parallel “narrative desire” to plot out the Iliad’s unique treatment of the Trojan War story. I argue that Homer encodes the characters’ desires in repeated triangles of subject, object, and rival, and that Akhilleus’ aggressive desires to dominate his rivals Agamemnon and Hektor cause the heroism and suffering at the poem’s heart.

  • THE WOMEN of the AENEID Vanishing Bodies, Lingering Voices S
    THE WOMEN OF THE AENEID-- Vanishing Bodies, Lingering Voices -- 1of 14 THE WOMEN OF THE AENEID Vanishing Bodies, Lingering Voices S. Georgia Nugent The "constant changeability" that Vergil's Mercury predicates of "woman" ( mutabile semper femina , 4.570) might well be applied to the Aeneid itself. For readers' understanding of the poem continually evolves, reflecting changes in historical circumstances, cultural mores, and critical fashions. Essays in this volume discuss ways in which the elusive meaning of Vergil's epic has been quite differently understood, for example, by readers for whom the sun never set on their national empire and by readers whose nation was embarked on a war they believed to be unjustified and unjust. Not surprisingly, just as Victorian imperialism or the Viet Nam War inflected, in their time, readers' understanding of the Aeneid , so has the political and intellectual movement of feminism in recent decades led some readers to look at the Aeneid in a different way, to ask new questions of the text, and to reevaluate its significance. In the context of widespread critical reappraisal and reevaluation of the role of women in literary texts, it is worthwhile to examine female characters and their deployment in the Aeneid , for they figure importantly in almost every book of the epic. The history of critical attention to the female figures of the Aeneid , however, is marked by paradox. There is no doubt that the Aeneid is profoundly centered around men, their aspirations and relationships with one another. And yet the divine figure of Juno and especially the human figure of Dido have always elicited great interest among readers.
