  • Hesiod Theogony.Pdf
    Hesiod (8th or 7th c. BC, composed in Greek) The Homeric epics, the Iliad and the Odyssey, are probably slightly earlier than Hesiod’s two surviving poems, the Works and Days and the Theogony. Yet in many ways Hesiod is the more important author for the study of Greek mythology. While Homer treats cer- tain aspects of the saga of the Trojan War, he makes no attempt at treating myth more generally. He often includes short digressions and tantalizes us with hints of a broader tra- dition, but much of this remains obscure. Hesiod, by contrast, sought in his Theogony to give a connected account of the creation of the universe. For the study of myth he is im- portant precisely because his is the oldest surviving attempt to treat systematically the mythical tradition from the first gods down to the great heroes. Also unlike the legendary Homer, Hesiod is for us an historical figure and a real per- sonality. His Works and Days contains a great deal of autobiographical information, in- cluding his birthplace (Ascra in Boiotia), where his father had come from (Cyme in Asia Minor), and the name of his brother (Perses), with whom he had a dispute that was the inspiration for composing the Works and Days. His exact date cannot be determined with precision, but there is general agreement that he lived in the 8th century or perhaps the early 7th century BC. His life, therefore, was approximately contemporaneous with the beginning of alphabetic writing in the Greek world. Although we do not know whether Hesiod himself employed this new invention in composing his poems, we can be certain that it was soon used to record and pass them on.

  • Heracles in Greek Epic from Homer to Nonnus the Norwegian Institute At
    A Gluttonous Strongman and Irascible Stoic: Heracles in Greek Epic from Homer to Nonnus The Norwegian Institute at Athens, 01.11.2018 Introduction Heracles – ladies and gentlemen! – was the perhaps most prominent, most popular, and most prevalent figure in ancient mythology. He was present in as good as all aspects of ancient Greek (and Roman) culture, religion, literature, iconography, etc., but also in many facets of daily life. The focus of my lecture today will be on Heracles as a character in ancient Greek epic. We know from various sources that Heracles was used as an eponymous hero in numerous Greek epics from the Archaic Period onward. However, unfortunately, most of these Heracles epics do not survive (the only exception being the pseudo-Hesiodic Aspis). On the other hand, existing Greek epic from Homer to Nonnus is not concerned with the life and deeds of Heracles. However, these epics nonetheless all include references to Heracles, be it on a diegetic or on a metadiegetic level. In what follows, I will offer a selective tour de fource through existing Greek epic with a focus on the appearance and function of Heracles in the Homeric epics, in Apollonius of Rhodes’ Argonautica, and in Nonnus of Panopolis’ Dionysiaca. For reasons of limited time (and with a bleeding heart!) I will exclude Hesiod and Quintus of Smyrna. As a first step, I need to lay out some of my methodological premises, the main of which is narratological character analysis. The main tenet of narratological character analysis is the insight, as Mieke Bal puts it (see n.

  • Heracles in Homer and Apollonius: Narratological Character Analysis in a Diachronic Perspective
    Heracles in Homer and Apollonius: Narratological Character Analysis in a Diachronic Perspective Silvio Bär Department of Philosophy, Classics, History of Art and Ideas, University of Oslo, Norway For Winnie 1. Introduction Aristotle in his Poetics (1451a 16–22) mentions epics on the life and deeds of Heracles as a negative example of what he considers to be imperative for good dramatic progress and coherence, namely, the unity of action.1 According to Aristotle, unity of action is not automatically constituted by the sum of all the single events that occur in one and the same character’s lifetime. This verdict encapsulates two parameters that are going to be of eminent importance in this article. First, it shows that Aristotle did not see an inherent connection between a literary character and the idea of unity, but indeed rather viewed these two aspects as contradictory. As will be demonstrated, plausible as it sounds, this methodological proposition is often not taken for granted in literary character studies in classical scholarship. Secondly, the Aristotelian passage testifies to the fact that Heracles was indeed popular as an 1 µῦθος δ᾿ ἐστὶν εἷς οὐχ ὥσπερ τινὲς οἴονται ἐὰν περὶ ἕνα ᾖ· πολλὰ γὰρ καὶ ἄπειρα τῷ ἑνὶ συµβαίνει, ἐξ ὧν ἐνίων οὐδέν ἐστιν ἕν· οὕτως δὲ καὶ πράξεις ἑνὸς πολλαί εἰσιν, ἐξ ὧν µία οὐδεµία γίνεται πρᾶξις. διὸ πάντες ἐοίκασιν ἁµαρτάνειν ὅσοι τῶν ποιητῶν Ἡρακληίδα καὶ Θησηίδα καὶ τὰ τοιαῦτα ποιήµατα πεποιήκασιν· οἴονται γάρ, ἐπεὶ εἷς ἦν ὁ Ἡρακλῆς, ἕνα καὶ τὸν µῦθον εἶναι προσήκειν.

  • Greco-Roman Gods and Goddesses
    GRECO -ROMAN GODS AND GODDESSES THE OLYMPIANS : THE “T WELVE ” Of the many major and minor gods in the Olympian dynasty the most important are the Twelve, a group chosen by the Greeks themselves as the key figures in the Olympian group and the basis for most of their religious observances. Greek law is also to some extent derived from the concept of the Twelve, and Greeks in both court proceedings and in ordinary conversation took their oath “by the Twelve.” The divinities constituting this group were: Zeus (Jupiter, Jove) Leader of the Olympians, god of lightening, and representative of the power principle. Hera (Juno) Wife of Zeus and goddess of marriage and domestic stability. Poseidon (Neptune) God of the sea. Often called “the earth shaker,” possibly because the Greeks attributed earthquakes to marine origin. Hades (Pluto, Dis) God of the Underworld and presider over the realm of the dead. Also connected with the nature myth by his marriage to Persephone (Proserpine), who spent half of her time on earth (the growing season) and half in the underworld (the winter period). Hades does not represent death itself, that function being relegated to a lesser divinity Thanatos. Pallas Athena, Athena (Minerva) Goddess of wisdom, but also associated with many other concepts from warfare to arts and crafts. Her birth was remarkable, since she sprang fully-armed from the forehead of Zeus. She was the patron goddess of Athens and to the Athenians represented the art of civilized living. Phoebus Apollo Son of Zeus and Leto, daughter of the Titans Krios and Phoebe.

  • Stockton 1 the Sculpture the Three Goddess Is Found in the East
    Stockton 1 The sculpture The Three Goddess is found in the east pediment of the Parthenon. The Parthenon a temple dedicated after Athena the Greek goddess. The Parthenon got its name from one of the epithets of the goddess – Parthenos and depicts many important Athenian myths including the contest between Athena and Poseidon and Athena’s birth. All the sculpture relief’s in the Parthenon tell story’s about the people of Athens and there relationship with the Gods. Unfortunately the East Pediment in which the Three Goddesses lye is in very poor shape. Due its poor shape the identification of the characters is hard to determine. They have been identified as many different things but the most accepted identification of the Three Goddesses is Hestia (goddess of home and hearth), Dione (mother of Aphrodite), and Aphrodite (goddess of sexual love). Hestia the goddess of home and hearth is thought to be the seated Goddess on the far left. The myth goes that Hestia was the first born child of the titan Kronos and his wife Rhea. At birth Hestia was swallowed by her father along with her siblings. Zeus discovered this and forced Kronos to throw up Hestia and her five siblings. As a young woman the Gods Apollo and Poseidon fought for her hand in marriage Hetia refusing both of them asked Zeus if she could remain a virgin forever and that is how she came to be the goddess hearth. Dione the earth goddess is though to be the daughter of Aphrodite. Dione is also thought to be the female version of Zeus.
