  • The Death of Eurydice Orpheus' Descent Into Hades
    Myth #4 Orpheus and Eurydice Name _____________________________________ READ CLOSELY AND SHOW EVIDENCE OF THINKING BY ANNOTATING. Annotate ​ all readings by highlighting the main idea in ​yellow​; the best evidence supporting in​ blue​, and any interesting phrases in ​green. As it is only fitting, Orpheus, “the father of songs” and the supreme musician in Greek mythology, ​ ​ was the son of one of the Muses, generally said to be Calliope, by either Apollo or the Thracian king ​ Oeagrus. Be that as it may, we know for sure that Orpheus got a golden lyre as a gift from Apollo ​ ​ when just a child, and that it was the god who taught him how to play it in such a beautiful manner. Moreover, his mother showed him how to add verses to the music, and his eight aunts how to polish them to perfection, in every style known to man. So, when Orpheus was a young man, as ​ Shakespeare writes, his “golden touch could soften steel and stones, make tigers tame, and huge leviathans forsake unsounded deeps to dance on sands.” Loved by many, this young man loved only the beautiful Eurydice; and she loved him back. This is the story of their tragic love. ​ ​ The Death of Eurydice Soon after the marriage of Orpheus and Eurydice, Eurydice died of a snake bite. Different authors ​ tell different stories as to what led to the fatal encounter. According to the most repeated story, Eurydice fell into a serpent nest after trying to escape from a certain Aristaeus, a shepherd who ​ ​ began to chase her through the forest as soon as he laid his eyes upon her otherworldly beauty.

A charming and talented musician, Orpheus is the son of a Thracian king and the muse Calliope. When Orpheus plays, every animate and inanimate thing follows and his music can divert the course of rivers. He meets and marries the maiden Eurydice—thought to be perhaps a nymph (minor Greek deity related to nature), or maybe a daughter of Apollo. Their joy is brief; on their wedding day Eurydice travels through a meadow with her bridesmaids (in some versions, she’s running to Orpheus Leading Eurydice from the Underworld by Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot, 1861. escape the sexual advances of a satyr or shepherd) and she steps into a pit of vipers.

His limbs were scattered, but his head and lyre floated on the river Hebrus out to sea, both all the while making lamentations. Hades set one condition, however: upon leaving the land of death, both Orpheus and Eurydice were forbidden to look back. Although every book should be approached with an open mind, and judged on its own merits, I found it difficult while reading this picture-book adaptation of the Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice , not to measure it against Charles Mikolaycak's version , which happens to be a personal favorite. Orpheus is unpopular—his poetry has been too successful. BookDB marked it as to-read Sep 18, You see, Orpheus knew full well that no man was ever allowed to visit the Underworld twice and he was now on his way out of it. He later presented himself in front of the god of the Greek underworld, Hades Pluto in Roman mythology , and his wife, Persephone.

  • Mythology, Greek, Roman Allusions
    Advanced Placement Tool Box Mythological Allusions –Classical (Greek), Roman, Norse – a short reference • Achilles –the greatest warrior on the Greek side in the Trojan war whose mother tried to make immortal when as an infant she bathed him in magical river, but the heel by which she held him remained vulnerable. • Adonis –an extremely beautiful boy who was loved by Aphrodite, the goddess of love. By extension, an “Adonis” is any handsome young man. • Aeneas –a famous warrior, a leader in the Trojan War on the Trojan side; hero of the Aeneid by Virgil. Because he carried his elderly father out of the ruined city of Troy on his back, Aeneas represents filial devotion and duty. The doomed love of Aeneas and Dido has been a source for artistic creation since ancient times. • Aeolus –god of the winds, ruler of a floating island, who extends hospitality to Odysseus on his long trip home • Agamemnon –The king who led the Greeks against Troy. To gain favorable wind for the Greek sailing fleet to Troy, he sacrificed his daughter Iphigenia to the goddess Artemis, and so came under a curse. After he returned home victorious, he was murdered by his wife Clytemnestra, and her lover, Aegisthus. • Ajax –a Greek warrior in the Trojan War who is described as being of colossal stature, second only to Achilles in courage and strength. He was however slow witted and excessively proud. • Amazons –a nation of warrior women. The Amazons burned off their right breasts so that they could use a bow and arrow more efficiently in war.

  • Constellation Legends
    Constellation Legends by Norm McCarter Naturalist and Astronomy Intern SCICON Andromeda – The Chained Lady Cassiopeia, Andromeda’s mother, boasted that she was the most beautiful woman in the world, even more beautiful than the gods. Poseidon, the brother of Zeus and the god of the seas, took great offense at this statement, for he had created the most beautiful beings ever in the form of his sea nymphs. In his anger, he created a great sea monster, Cetus (pictured as a whale) to ravage the seas and sea coast. Since Cassiopeia would not recant her claim of beauty, it was decreed that she must sacrifice her only daughter, the beautiful Andromeda, to this sea monster. So Andromeda was chained to a large rock projecting out into the sea and was left there to await the arrival of the great sea monster Cetus. As Cetus approached Andromeda, Perseus arrived (some say on the winged sandals given to him by Hermes). He had just killed the gorgon Medusa and was carrying her severed head in a special bag. When Perseus saw the beautiful maiden in distress, like a true champion he went to her aid. Facing the terrible sea monster, he drew the head of Medusa from the bag and held it so that the sea monster would see it. Immediately, the sea monster turned to stone. Perseus then freed the beautiful Andromeda and, claiming her as his bride, took her home with him as his queen to rule. Aquarius – The Water Bearer The name most often associated with the constellation Aquarius is that of Ganymede, son of Tros, King of Troy.

    Ovid's story of Orpheus and Eurydice v. 08.13, www.philaletheians.co.uk, 31 August 2017 Page 1 of 6 MYSTIC VERSE AND INSIGHTS SERIES ORPHEUS AND EURYDICE Translated by Sir Samuel Garth, John Dryden, et al., in 1717 Book X Eurydice, Hyacinth, Pygmalion, Adonis, Atalanta, Cyparissus. Thence, in his saffron robe, for distant Thrace, Hymen departs, thro’ air’s unmeasur’d space; By Orpheus call’d, the nuptial Pow’r attends, But with ill-omen’d augury descends; Nor chearful look’d the God, nor prosp’rous spoke, Nor blaz’d his torch, but wept in hissing smoke. In vain they whirl it round, in vain they shake, No rapid motion can its flames awake. With dread these inauspicious signs were view’d, And soon a more disastrous end ensu’d; For as the bride, amid the Naiad train, Ran joyful, sporting o’er the flow’ry plain, A venom’d viper bit her as she pass’d; Instant she fell, and sudden breath’d her last. When long his loss the Thracian had deplor’d, Not by superior Pow’rs to be restor’d; Inflam’d by love, and urg’d by deep despair, He leaves the realms of light, and upper air; Daring to tread the dark Tenarian road, And tempt the shades in their obscure abode; Thro’ gliding spectres of th’ interr’d to go, And phantom people of the world below: Persephone he seeks, and him who reigns O’er ghosts, and Hell’s uncomfortable plains. Arriv’d, he, tuning to his voice his strings, Thus to the king and queen of shadows sings.

  • Homeric Catalogues Between Tradition and Invention
    31 DOI:10.34616/QO.2019.4.31.54 Quaestiones Oralitatis IV (2018/2019) Isabella Nova Università Cattolica di Milano [email protected] ORCID: 0000-0002-7880-4856 HOMERIC CATALOGUES BETWEEN TRADITION AND INVENTION Abstract This contribution aims at showing how a traditional list of names could be varied by poets with the addition of new ones sharing the same features, with a special focus on the Nereids’ names. A compari- son between the catalogue of Nereids in the Iliad (XVIII 39–49) and the one in the Theogony (Theog. 243–264) shows that whilst some names are traditional and some others seem to be invented ad hoc, they all convey relaxing images (sea, nature, beauty, or gifts for sailors). This list of names did not become a fixed one in later times either: inscriptions on vase-paintings of the 5th century preserve names different than the epic ones. Even Apollodorus (I 2, 7) gives a catalogue of Nereids derived partly from the Iliad and partly from the Theogony, with the addition of some names belonging to another group of deities (the Oceanids) and other forms unattested elsewhere but with the same features of the epic ones. A further comparison between a catalogue of Nymphs in the Georgics (IV 333–356) and its reception in the work of Higynus proves that adding new names to a traditional list is a feature not only of oral epic poetry, but also of catalogues composed in a literate culture. Keywords: Homer, Iliad, Hesiod, Theogony, Apollodorus, Virgil, Hyginus, reception of Homer, vase-paintings, catalogues, Nereids, speaking-names, oral culture, orality 32 Isabella Nova This paper will consider the ancient lists of the Nereids’ names, making a comparison between catalogues in epic po- etry, which were orally composed, and their reception in clas- sical times.
