Achilles and the Myth of the Mortal Races 237 Conclusion 238 Bibliography 242 Abstract This descriptive reading of the Iliad explores its meaningful reception within the ancient Greek polls. Because it was performed at the Greater Panathenaic Festival at Athens, I have ap­ proached the poem as a religious artefact, or hero myth, that expresses devotional attitudes, be­ liefs and practices specific to its most normative, content defining cultural context, the Panathe­ naic Festival. More precisely, my study identifies an underlying, paradigmatic association be­ tween the heroic characters of the poem's narrative and the male athletes who competed at the Games such as Olympia, which were held in honour of the gods. Building from the association I identify as operating between the heroes of the Iliad, Achilles and the Achaeans especially, and the athletes, I argue that the poem expresses the attitudinal/characterological entailments of the Greek male as he prepares to marry and become a citizen. Acknowledgements My period of doctoral studies, from 2004 to 2009, has been financially supported by the University of Ottawa's Entrance Scholarship Program, and by the Ontario Graduate Scholarship Program. I must also acknowledge my sincere gratitude to Dr. Anne Vallely and Dr. Theodore De Bruyn for engaging me as their assistant in their respective re­ search projects, thereby providing me with the financial support to extend my own work for an additional year. Far beyond this, I am most grateful for opportunity to have learned from them. In addition to providing me with the opportunity to renew my love of India and anthropological study, Dr. Vallely has been a constant source of support for my thesis writing, my understanding of myth, ritual, iconic art, divinity and cosmology. The impact all of this has had on my understanding of religion has been far too great to adequately express in words of appreciation. Finally, I must acknowledge my gratitude to Dr. Dominique Cote, my director from the outset of my doctoral stud­ ies. He has always expressed great enthusiasm for my attempts to situate my under­ standing of Homer within the polis context and has provided me with great encour­ agement to look at my vastly studied topic with fresh, original eyes. 2 Chapter 1. Introduction This study of the Iliad explores its meaningful reception within the context of the polis, the Greek city-state.1 I aim to demonstrate that the poem was experienced as a hero myth that dramatically elaborated a pedagogy of male acculturation to the require­ ments of life as a citizen. The Iliad, in my reading, related especially to Greek young men who were of an age to compete for the last time in the circuit of sacred games; young men of approximately thirty years of age who had completed their military terms and who were transitioning towards the settled, married life of the householding citizen. Given this focus, I infer that the poem was selected for the programme of con­ tests at the Greater Panathenaia to establish the festival's legitimacy alongside the circuit of pan-Hellenic games that were anchored by the Zeus cult competitions at Olympia. This last point will be expanded upon shortly. Put briefly, underlying this descriptive study is the postulate that the poem was regarded as sacred and therefore served as a devotional medium through which performers and audience experienced their cult en­ tities, their gods and heroes. I am seeking to elaborate a reading that sees in the Iliad an accretion of religious cult or, in other words, a reading that regards the poem as a means by which a potent, 1 Regarding the historical dating of the poem as concurrent with the rise of the polis, see van Wees 1999: 1-13. Also, Nagy 2002: 1-8, who provides a timeline for the shaping of the poetry and presents its per­ formance logistics at the Panathenaic festival. My concern is with the poem's cultural relevance to the polis as a cultural organism and ideological construct and am most concerned with its formal perform­ ance at Athens from the mid sixth century BCE onward through the Classical period.

  • A Study of the Nature of the Photochromic Mechanism in Various Sodalites
    A STUDY OF THE NATURE OF THE PHOTOCHROMIC MECHANISM IN VARIOUS SODALITES by RICHARD MARTIN CHARNAH B. Sc., A.R.C.S. A Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of London. September 1973 Department of Electrical Engineering IMPERIAL COLLEGE University of London • - Abstract The major inorganic photochromic materials are reviewed, and in particular sodalite in greater detail. The growth of sodalites by hydrothermal and fluxed- melt techniques and by a low temperature aqueous medium method from kaolinite is dealt with, and the production of a novel material with more convenient activation properties than hitherto is described. Using chiefly epr measurements and spectra reconstructions the electron centres previously suggested as the source of the photochromic activity are eliminated and a new model developed, though others are also considered possible. Other effects in sodalites are explained using configuration co-ordinate diagrams, and suggestions are made concerning non-photochromic sodalites. • To my wife, Haze • - iv - Acknowledgements I would like to thank Dr D W G Ballentyne for his encouragement and supervision during this work. I am also grateful to Dr E A D White for advice on crystal growth, to Professor J C Anderson for his interest and support and to Dr J F Gibson for providing unhindered access to the Varian epr spectrometer and with whom I had many illuminating discussions. May I also thank my colleagues and friends of the materials section for their advice and criticism and for the environment they created, and the technical staff of the electrical engineering department, especially Mr P Robinson whose guidance on hardware saved much time.

Many a brave soul did it send hurrying down to Hades, and many a hero did it yield a prey to dogs and vultures, for so were the counsels of Jove fulfilled from the day on which the son of Atreus, king of men, and great Achilles, first fell out with one another. And which of the gods was it that set them on to quarrel? It was the son of Jove and Leto; for he was angry with the king and sent a pestilence upon the host to plague the people, because the son of Atreus had dishonoured Chryses his priest. Now Chryses had come to the ships of the Achaeans to free his daughter, and had brought with him a great ransom: moreover he bore in his hand the sceptre of Apollo wreathed with a suppliant's wreath and he besought the Achaeans, but most of all the two sons of Atreus, who were their chiefs. "Sons of Atreus," he cried, "and all other Achaeans, may the gods who dwell in Olympus grant you to sack the city of Priam, and to reach your homes in safety; but free my daughter, and accept a ransom for her, in reverence to Apollo, son of Jove." On this the rest of the Achaeans with one voice were for respecting the priest and taking the ransom that he offered; but not so Agamemnon, who spoke fiercely to him and sent him roughly away.

  • Separating Fact from Fiction in the Aiolian Migration
    hesperia yy (2008) SEPARATING FACT Pages399-430 FROM FICTION IN THE AIOLIAN MIGRATION ABSTRACT Iron Age settlementsin the northeastAegean are usuallyattributed to Aioliancolonists who journeyed across the Aegean from mainland Greece.

  • Trojan War - Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia Trojan War from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia for the 1997 Film, See Trojan War (Film)
    5/14/2014 Trojan War - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Trojan War From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia For the 1997 film, see Trojan War (film). In Greek mythology, the Trojan War was waged against the city of Troy by the Achaeans (Greeks) after Paris of Troy took Helen Trojan War from her husband Menelaus king of Sparta. The war is one of the most important events in Greek mythology and has been narrated through many works of Greek literature, most notably through Homer's Iliad. The Iliad relates a part of the last year of the siege of Troy; its sequel, the Odyssey describes Odysseus's journey home. Other parts of the war are described in a cycle of epic poems, which have survived through fragments. Episodes from the war provided material for Greek tragedy and other works of Greek literature, and for Roman poets including Virgil and Ovid. The war originated from a quarrel between the goddesses Athena, Hera, and Aphrodite, after Eris, the goddess of strife and discord, gave them a golden apple, sometimes known as the Apple of Discord, marked "for the fairest". Zeus sent the goddesses to Paris, who judged that Aphrodite, as the "fairest", should receive the apple. In exchange, Aphrodite made Helen, the most beautiful Achilles tending the wounded Patroclus of all women and wife of Menelaus, fall in love with Paris, who (Attic red-figure kylix, c. 500 BC) took her to Troy. Agamemnon, king of Mycenae and the brother of Helen's husband Menelaus, led an expedition of Achaean The war troops to Troy and besieged the city for ten years because of Paris' Setting: Troy (modern Hisarlik, Turkey) insult.

Iliad of Homer. Chicago: University of Chicago Press 1967: VI.429-30 Hektor and Andromache 3 Table of Contents Introduction 4 Chapter One: Hektor 5 Chapter Two: Andromache 8 Chapter Three: The Marriage 10 Chapter Four: The Weight of Mortality: Hektor’s Fate 13 Chapter Five: The Lost Soul: Andromache After Hektor 16 Chapter Six: Tragedy in its Final Conclusion 18 Hektor and Andromache 4 Introduction This thesis paper was not written to analyze any specific source or sources of the literary figures of Hektor and Andromache, but rather to assimilate a common theme associated with them as individuals and as a family. I will look into how ancient writers, such as Homer and Virgil, interpreted them, and how modern writers, such as Marion Zimmer Bradley, portray them. Regardless of who the author is, I am determined in this paper to provide enough evidence that Hektor and Andromache were universally tragic, and can even be considered the most tragic couple in ancient literature. This is true in Homer’s depictions in the Iliad, Euripedes’ renditions of the Troy’s capture and imprisonment of Andromache in the Trojan Women and Andromache, respectively, as well as many others.

    Synoikism, Urbanization, and Empire in the Early Hellenistic Period by Ryan Anthony Boehm A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Ancient History and Mediterranean Archaeology in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Emily Mackil, Chair Professor Erich Gruen Professor Mark Griffith Spring 2011 Copyright © Ryan Anthony Boehm, 2011 ABSTRACT SYNOIKISM, URBANIZATION, AND EMPIRE IN THE EARLY HELLENISTIC PERIOD by Ryan Anthony Boehm Doctor of Philosophy in Ancient History and Mediterranean Archaeology University of California, Berkeley Professor Emily Mackil, Chair This dissertation, entitled “Synoikism, Urbanization, and Empire in the Early Hellenistic Period,” seeks to present a new approach to understanding the dynamic interaction between imperial powers and cities following the Macedonian conquest of Greece and Asia Minor. Rather than constructing a political narrative of the period, I focus on the role of reshaping urban centers and regional landscapes in the creation of empire in Greece and western Asia Minor. This period was marked by the rapid creation of new cities, major settlement and demographic shifts, and the reorganization, consolidation, or destruction of existing settlements and the urbanization of previously under- exploited regions. I analyze the complexities of this phenomenon across four frameworks: shifting settlement patterns, the regional and royal economy, civic religion, and the articulation of a new order in architectural and urban space. The introduction poses the central problem of the interrelationship between urbanization and imperial control and sets out the methodology of my dissertation. After briefly reviewing and critiquing previous approaches to this topic, which have focused mainly on creating catalogues, I point to the gains that can be made by shifting the focus to social and economic structures and asking more specific interpretive questions.
