J. HE remains of Hesiod are not alone interesting to the antiquary, as tracing a picture of the rude arts and manners of the ancient Greeks. His sublime viewa of a retri- philosophic allegories ; his elevated butive Providence and the romantic or ; elegance, daring grandeur, with which he has invested the legends of his mytholog}', offer more solid reasons than the accident of coeval existence for the tradi- tional association of his name with that of Homer. Hesiod has been translated in Latin hexameters by Nicolaus Valla, and by Bernardo Zamagna. A French translation by Jacques le Gras bears date 1586. The earliest essay on his poems by our owni " countrymen appears in the old racy version of Tlie Works and Days," by George Chapman, the trans- lator of Homer, published in 1618. It is so scarce that " " Warton in The History of English Poetry doubts SI 2 IV PREFACE. its existence. Some specimens of a work equally curi- ous fioni its rareness, and interesting as an example of our ancient poetry, are appended to this translation.

Nothing is positively known, and little can be conjectured with any degree of probability, con- cerning the author of the Library. Writing in the ninth century of our era the patriarch Photius calls him Apollodorus the Gi'ammarian,^ and in the manu- scripts of his book he is described as Apollodorus the Athenian, Grammarian. Hence we may con- clude that Photius and the copyists identified our author with the eminent Athenian grammarian of that name, who flourished about 140 b.c. and wrote a number of learned works, now lost, including an elaborate treatise On the Gods in twenty-four books, and a poetical, or at all events versified. Chronicle in four books. 2 But in modern times good reasons have been given for rejecting this identification,^ ^ Photius, Bibliotheca, p.

[ ] 안에 지역을 넣어 구분하였습니다. 그리스의 인명에서 y는 “ㅟ”, “ㅠ” 등으로 표기하기도 하는데 저는 “ㅣ”로 통일하였습니다. ae는 라틴어로 “아이”로 발음하지만 원래 그리스 발음이 “아 이”인 경우 ae로 옮겼습니다. 따라서 “아에”로 발음하는 경우는 예외에 속합니다. 다른 곳에서는 “에”, “아에”로 표기하기도 하지만 저는 그리스 발음에 따랐습니다. 그리스의 인명의 끝에 자주 사 용되는 “os”는 로마식으로 “us”가 됩니다. 영문표기는 라틴식으로 발음은 그리스식으로 “오스”라 고 하였습니다.

Hesiod’s poetry includes passages critical of those aristoi who support themselves on the labors of others rather than through their own exertions.

  • Hesiod the Poems and Fragments
    HESIOD THE POEMS AND FRAGMENTS DONE INTO ENGLISH PROSE WITH INTRODUCTION AND APPENDICES BY A. W. MAIR, M.A. (ABE_. Er CA_TAB.) PROFESSOR OF GRF.RK IN EDINBURGH UNIVERSITY SOMRTIMR FBLLOW OF GONVILLE AND CAIUS COLLRGE CAMBRIDGE OXFORD AT THE CLARENDON PRESS x9o8 HENRY FROWDEj M.A. PUBLISHER TO THE UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD LONDON_ EDINBURGH_ NEW YORK TORONTO AND MELBOURNE _.IN'TED IN ENGL/t.NO, '_i__ PREFACE No apology seems needed for a new English trans- lation of Hesiod. I shall be glad if the present rendering lead to a more general study of an author who, if only for his antiquity, must always possess a particular interest. In some few cases of great doubt and difllcuky I have consciously given a merely provisional version. These need not be specified here, and I hope to have an opportunity elsewhere of a fuU discussion. The Introduction aims at no more than supplying a certain amount of information, within definite limits, about the Hesiodic epos and the traditional Hesiod. A critical introduction was clearly beyond the scope of this book. In the Addenda I have given a preliminary and necessarily slight discussion of a few selected topics from the tVork_ and Days. The vexed question of the spdling of Greek proper names is particularly troublesome in Hesiod, since, as Quintilian says, 'magna pars eius in nomini- bus est occupata.' I have preferred some approxima- tion to the Gre& spelling rather than the Romanized forms, but I have not troubled about a too laborious ,J consistency. a2 iv Preface ! have had the privilege o[ consulting my colleague the Astronomer Royal for Scotland (Professor Dyson) on some astronomical matters, and several of my brothers have given me the benefit of their criticism on various points of scholarship.
