APPENDIX 15 PROBLEMS IN THE ARGOS NARRATIVE, §§76–84 Date of the campaign and its motivation 1 Paus 3.4.1, perhaps drawing on Lakonika, says that Cleomenes attacked Argos immediately (aÈt¤ka) on becoming king, i.e. c520. The best argument in favour of this is that he took on a difficult task in a bravura attempt to show that he was worthy to hold the kingship, despite the rival claim of Dorieus (note to §§49.2–55 paras 4, 8). But most historians reject this late Spartan tradition1 and place it in the mid 490s,2 for several reasons: (a) it helps make sense of the double oracle, the Milesian part of which prima facie anticipates the fall of Miletus in 494.3 (b) It is easier to make sense of subse- quent events: the “slaves” taking and then losing power, §83; per- haps the Argives using their defeat as the reason (or excuse) for not officially sending troops to Aegina, §92.2; and the use of nevst¤, “recently”, attributed to them in 481–0 when they spoke of those losses (7.148) when refusing to help against Persia (for the word, see Appx 10 n. 6). (c) At §92.1 the Argives fine Sicyon and Aegina for supplying the Spartans with ships: and that reads more easily if it 1 Writers of Spartan history were late, and the value of what they recorded is pro tanto suspect. Huxley (1962) 19 suggests that Pausanias may have used Sosibios (FGrH 595, perhaps late second century). The story in Socrates of Argos that Demaratos was also there (para 6) is not persuasive, at least on the dates proposed by Forrest (1980) 21: Cleomenes succeeded c520, when Demaratos’ father Ariston was still king; Demaratos did not succeed until c515; cf on ÉAr¤stvni, §61.1. 2 E.g. BM 162; CAH IV2 497 (Hammond), so HG 196, 201; Jeffery (1976) 125, id CAH IV2 335, 364; CAH V2 101 (Lewis, with some reservations). For a defence of Pausanias’ date see Wells (1923) chap IV; he accepts the Telesilla story, infra, as true (cf Appx 6 n. 10). Stadter (1965) 52, following Jacoby, argues that Demaratos was added to the story after an incident at Argos in 271, when Pyrrhus king of Epirus was killed by a projectile thrown by a woman from above (Paus 1.13.7, Plut Pyr 34). The ransom trick does not help, since there was no Argive coinage even in 494; they start in c475–c468: Kraay (1976) 96. Ransom could have been paid in bullion or coins from elsewhere, e.g. Aegina. 3 See Appx 6, esp paras 8–10, noting the possibility that Cleomenes’ consulta- tion of Delphi (next note) was a few years before actually invading, and the double oracle was given shortly afterwards. 572 appendix 15 had happened not long before the events just described, the fighting between Athens and Aegina, which on any view probably happened in the period 493 to 484: Appx 12 paras 5–6. (d) In Herodotus’ narrative, only Cleomenes is there.4 (e) There is much merit in the point made by Jones (1967) 53, Jeffery (1976) 125, that a 50 year truce after Thyrea would expire in c496. (f ) If Telesilla was there, whatever her role, the later the date the easier it is to accommo- date her.5 2 Understanding Cleomenes’ motive and plan involves several prob- lems; when he set out, he could not have foreseen that he would be able to eliminate a substantial part of the Argive army. Did he indeed hope to capture the city, and so compel her to join the Peloponnesian league, and did he persuade the ephors that he could (cf on §§76.1 and 82.1)? Or was his aim to incorporate Argive ter- ritory into Laconia (but see para 3 ad fin)?6 That he might want to make his mark as the new king has been noted supra; but a victory over Argos would enhance his position at any time. There were probably always internal political tensions within Sparta: cf note to §§49.2–55 paras 3–4. Did he do it out of personal ambition, or was there a substantial body of Spartiate opinion behind him wanting to “nullify a major rival for hegemony of the Peloponnese” (Cartledge (1979) 149); or were both the case?7 4 In Herodotus, it was Cleomenes who had the oracle, and he alone led the expedition. This is consistent with it being after the law of 506, that only one king should lead the army. But there are cases of one king doing it before then: note to §§49.2–55 para 3. The 510 expedition was said to be in response to an oracle, but that of 508 was not. 5 It is also arguable that Herodotus’ narrative reads better if Cleomenes had been on the throne for a good time. 6 Tomlinson (1972) 95–6, who dates the attack to 494 and after the fall of Miletus, suggested the alternative, or perhaps additional, aim of neutralising possible Argive support for Persia; Cartledge (1979) 149, infra, left it open. That is very doubtful, as few Greeks would see Persia as a threat to Hellas in the mid 490s. 7 There was probably an emotive side to the hostility between Sparta and Argos. Both probably said that Aristodemos and his brothers had shared out the Peloponnese (cf on §52.1). Sparta’s control of Messenia had already given her Cresphontes’ lot in addition to her own, and she also sought to appropriate Agamemnon (cf ibid and note to §§49.2–55 para 5). But Argos could claim that she had inherited the lot of Temenos, and was also successor to Agamemnon: see Jeffery (1976) 134–6, 164. Kelly (1976) 41–2, 44–5, questions the reliability of the “lot” references, but the story of Tegea at Plataea, 9.26–7, shows how powerful tradition could be in such matters. Although it is unclear how far Argos’ authority extended (paras 17–18), she blocked Sparta’s claim to total hegemony in the Peloponnese..

In this article, I trace a nuanced interchange between Euripides’ Helen, Aristophanes’ Thesmophoriazusae, and Euripides’ Orestes that contains a previ- ously overlooked example of Aristophanic paratragedy and Euripides’ paracomic response. I argue that the escape plot from Helen, in which Menelaus and Helen flee with “sword-bearing” men ξιφηφόρος( ), was co-opted in Thesmophoriazusae, when Aristophanes staged Euripides escaping with a man described as “being a razor-bearer” (ξυροφορέω). Furthermore, I suggest that Euripides re-appropriates this parody by escalating the quantity of sword-bearing men in Orestes, suggest- ing a dynamic poetic rivalry between Aristophanes and Euripides. Additionally, I delineate a methodology for evaluating instances of paracomedy. PARATRAGEDY, COMEDY’S AppROPRIATION OF LINES, SCENES, AND DRAMATURGY FROM TRAGEDY, constitutes a source of the genre’s authority (Foley 1988; Platter 2007), a source of the genre’s identity as a literary underdog in comparison to tragedy (Rosen 2005), and a source of its humor either through subverting or ridiculing tragedy (Silk 1993; Robson 2009, 108–13) or through audience detection and identification of quotations (Wright 2012, 145–50).1 The converse relationship between 1 Rau 1967 marks the beginning of serious investigation into paratragedy by analyz- ing numerous comic scenes that are modeled on tragic ones and providing a database, with hundreds of examples, of tragic lines that Aristophanes parodies.

The form of presentation is prescribed by the plan of the series. The book is to be a compilation of extracts from the Greek authors, selected, so far as possible, without prejudice and translated with such honesty as a translation may have. This plan has the merit of isolating the actual thought of the Greeks in this period from all the constructions put upon it by later ages, except in so far as the choice of extracts must be governed by some scheme in the compiler's mind, which is itself determined by the limits of his knowledge and by other personal factors. In the book itself it is clearly his business to reduce the influence of these factors to the lowest point; but in the introduction it is no less his business to forewarn the reader against some of the consequences.
  • 1 Lyric Messene

    1 Lyric Messene

    1 Lyric Messene: Collaborative Ethnogenesis and Historical Narrative1 Luke Nathaniel Madson Classical Studies Introduction: In the ancient world, Messenia is the case study par excellence of competing historical- political narratives and notions of revival. The wholesale creation of the late classical polis of Messene illustrates the variety of ways in which new political realities look to the past to establish precedent and stability in the face of seismic change.2 Many Messenian traditions map well onto what Jan Bremmer has called “Myth as Argument,”3 namely, a particular construction of the past to justify present political views, (sometimes) with an argument for a certain direction in the future. This idea is exemplified in the fragmentary lyric tradition of Eumelus known as the Delian Prosodion, of which we have only two attributed lines. As my analysis of this poetic tradition will show, it is inadequate to dismiss such evidence as mere political propaganda orchestrated by the Thebans and Messenians as they founded a new polis. The Delian Prosodion, when contextualized and queried against other emerging Messenian poetic traditions, historical narratives, and archaeological evidence, reveals the compelling traditions which are put forward in the process of ethnogenesis. Such expressions serve to establish legitimacy, not just in a broader external panhellenic political community, but also internally in the micro-narrative of Messene and the identity of its citizens. The poetry attributed to Eumelus shows the development of lyric memory, which functions much like the physical manifestation of civic memory, as seen in the city of Messene; both facilitate the emergence of a certain historical consciousness as well as the embodiment of a present contemporary community.

    584 THE STROMATA, OR MISCELLANIES BOOK 1 CHAPTER 1 PREFACE THE AUTHOR’S OBJECT THE UTILITY OF WRITTEN COMPOSITIONS [Wants the beginning ]..........that you may read them under your hand, and may be able to preserve them. Whether written compositions are not to be left behind at all; or if they are, by whom? And if the former, what need there is for written compositions? and if the latter, is the composition of them to be assigned to earnest men, or the opposite? It were certainly ridiculous for one to disapprove of the writing of earnest men, and approve of those, who are not such, engaging in the work of composition. Theopompus and Timaeus, who composed fables and slanders, and Epicurus the leader of atheism, and Hipponax and Archilochus, are to be allowed to write in their own shameful manner. But he who proclaims the truth is to be prevented from leaving behind him what is to benefit posterity. It is a good thing, I reckon, to leave to posterity good children. This is the case with children of our bodies. But words are the progeny of the soul. Hence we call those who have instructed us, fathers. Wisdom is a communicative and philanthropic thing. Accordingly, Solomon says, “My son, if thou receive the saying of my commandment, and hide it with thee, thine ear shall hear wisdom.” He points out that the word that is sown is hidden in the soul of the learner, as in the earth, and this is spiritual planting. Wherefore also he adds, “And thou shalt apply thine heart to understanding, and apply it for the admonition of thy son.” For soul, me thinks, joined with soul, and spirit with spirit, in the sowing of the word, will make that which is sown grow and germinate.

    Wandering Poets and the Dissemination of Greek Tragedy in the Fifth

    Wandering Poets and the Dissemination of Greek Tragedy in the Fifth and Fourth Centuries BC Edmund Stewart Abstract This work is the first full-length study of the dissemination of Greek tragedy in the earliest period of the history of drama. In recent years, especially with the growth of reception studies, scholars have become increasingly interested in studying drama outside its fifth century Athenian performance context. As a result, it has become all the more important to establish both when and how tragedy first became popular across the Greek world. This study aims to provide detailed answers to these questions. In doing so, the thesis challenges the prevailing assumption that tragedy was, in its origins, an exclusively Athenian cultural product, and that its ‘export’ outside Attica only occurred at a later period. Instead, I argue that the dissemination of tragedy took place simultaneously with its development and growth at Athens. We will see, through an examination of both the material and literary evidence, that non-Athenian Greeks were aware of the works of Athenian tragedians from at least the first half of the fifth century. In order to explain how this came about, I suggest that tragic playwrights should be seen in the context of the ancient tradition of wandering poets, and that travel was a usual and even necessary part of a poet’s work. I consider the evidence for the travels of Athenian and non-Athenian poets, as well as actors, and examine their motives for travelling and their activities on the road. In doing so, I attempt to reconstruct, as far as possible, the circuit of festivals and patrons, on which both tragedians and other poetic professionals moved.
