Centro de Estudios Helénicos Heracles's weariness and apotheosis in Classical Greek art Agotamiento físico y apoteosis de Heracles en el arte clásico griego Antonio Orlando Dourado Lopes Universidad Federal de Minas Gerais, Brasil [email protected] Resumen: Este estudio propone una interpretación general de las imágenes realizadas en Grecia, a partir del siglo V a. C. en monedas, joyas, pinturas de vasijas y esculturas, que muestran el agotamiento físico de Heracles y su apoteosis divina. Luego de una extendida consideración de los principales trabajos académicos que abordaron el tema desde finales del siglo XIX, procuro mostrar que la representación iconográfica del agotamiento de Heracles y de su apoteosis da testimonio de la influencia de nuevas concepciones religiosas y filosóficas en su mito, fundamentalmente del pitagorismo, del orfismo y de los cultos mistéricos, así como del fuerte intelectualismo de la Atenas del siglo V a.

Myth and Reality in the Battle Between the Pygmies and the Cranes in the Greek and Roman Worlds
ARTÍCULOS Gerión. Revista de historia Antigua ISSN: 0213-0181 http://dx.doi.org/10.5209/GERI.56960 Myth and Reality in the Battle between the Pygmies and the Cranes in the Greek and Roman Worlds Asher Ovadiah1; Sonia Mucznik2 Recibido: 19 de septiembre de 2016 / Aceptado: 23 de marzo de 2017 Abstract. Ancient writers, such as Homer, Aesop, Hecataeus of Miletus, Herodotus, Aristotle, Philostratus, Pliny the Elder, Juvenal and others have often referred to the enmity and struggle between the Pygmies and the Cranes. It seems that this folk-tale was conveyed to the Greeks through Egyptian sources. Greek and Roman visual works of art depict the Pygmies fighting against the vigorous and violent attack of the birds, which in some cases was vicious. This article sets out to examine the reasons for the literary and artistic portrayals of the Battle between the Pygmies and the Cranes (Geranomachy) in the context of the migration of the cranes in the autumn from the Caucasus (Scythian plains) to Central (Equatorial) Africa. In addition, an attempt will be made to clarify whether the literary sources and visual works of art reflect myth and/or reality. Keywords: Egypt; Ethiopia; Geranomachy; Migration; Nile; Scythia; Trojans. [en] Mito y realidad en la batalla entre los pigmeos y las grullas en el mundo griego y romano Resumen. Escritores antiguos, tales como Homero, Esopo, Hecateo de Mileto, Herodoto, Aristóteles, Filóstrato, Plinio el Viejo, Juvenal y otros se refirieron frecuentemente a la enemistad y guerra entre los pigmeos y las grullas. Es posible que este cuento popular fuese transmitido a los griegos a través de fuentes egipcias. -

SYLLABUS FOR CLASSICS 140 (#20821) INTRODUCTION TO CLASSICS Fall 2014 Semester, San Diego State University Brett Robbins, PhD., Department of Classics & Humanities Class Hours: M/W 2-3:15 PM, Classroom: PSFA-310 Office Hours (AL-672): MW 12:30-1:45 PM (or by appointment) Phone: 805-444-2393, E-Mail: [email protected] 1) COURSE DESCRIPTION If you’re curious about your own society, you should also be curious about the ancient Greeks and Romans, because they were the inventors of western culture and you should be curious about where so much of what you take for granted comes from. It’s inherently pleasurable to trace so much of what we think and do today to their roots in ancient Greece and Rome, to make sense of their world and our own world through their world and of both worlds through their interrelationships with each other. That is, I believe, what is most special about the study of antiquity: we find, if we look closely, so many firsts in western culture: the first epic and lyric poems, the first plays, the first theaters, the first histories, even the first cinema (huh?). And through the literature of ancient Greece and Rome we encounter the first expression of certain ideas like community, democracy, and imperialism and of certain emotions like courage, curiosity, and love. If tracing things back to their roots, their origins in the past, excites you, you are in the right place, because that is what I am primarily interested in: getting back to the roots. There is more. -

Early Mythology Ancestry
GRANHOLM GENEALOGY EARLY MYTHOLOGY ANCESTRY 1 INTRODUCTION This book covers the earliest history of man and the mythology in some countries. The beginning from Adam and Eve and their descendants is from the Old Testament, but also by several authors and genealogy programs. The age of the persons in the lineages in Genesis is expressed in their “years”, which has little to do with the reality of our 365-day years. I have chosen one such program as a starting point for this book. Several others have been used, and as can be expected, there are a lot of conflicting information, from which I have had to choose as best I can. It is fairly well laid out so the specific information is suitable for print. In addition, the lineage information shown covers the biblical information, fairly close to the Genesis, and it also leads to both to mythical and historical persons in several countries. Where myth turns into history is up to the reader’s imagination. This book lists individuals from Adam and Eve to King Alfred the Great of England. Between these are some mythical figures on which the Greek (similar to Roman) mythology is based beginning with Zeus and the Nordic (Anglo-Saxon) mythology beginning with Odin (Woden). These persons, in their national mythologies, have different ancestors than the biblical ones. More about the Nordic mythology is covered in the “Swedish Royal Ancestry, Book 1”. Of additional interest is the similarity of the initial creation between the Greek and the Finnish mythology in its national Kalevala epos, from which a couple of samples are included here. -
The Use of Masks on the Ceramics from the Theban Kabeirion in Greece
eSharp Issue 8 Un/Worldly Bodies Changed Appearances: The Use of Masks on the Ceramics from the Theban Kabeirion in Greece Kirsten Bedigan (University of Glasgow) Kabeiric ware is a unique ceramic type from the sanctuary of the Kabeiroi, near Thebes in Boeotia, central Greece. The Kabeiroi were a group of pre- Hellenic deities, of probable Anatolian origin (Beekes, 2004, p.473), whose cult was founded at Thebes in the late sixth century BC (Heyder and Mallwitz, 1978, pp.59-60). The focus of this paper is to identify and catalogue those Kabeiric vases that have masks within their scenes. This clarifies the motivations and reasoning of the society and artists who created and used these vessels. This study will take into account the Kabeiric vases as well as evidence from other Greek ceramics. Upon Kabeiric ware the human figure was depicted in different, or unworldly, ways to that of a normal, or worldly, human body. Although early representations of humans were stylised and simplistic (Cook, 1997, p.20), the orientalising period saw more realistic depictions (Boardman, 2001, p.31). The vases of the Kabeirion, however, are renowned for their grotesque and caricatured appearance. It has been argued that, across Greece, the peculiar vase scenes with deliberately grotesque figures may represent theatrical and mythological scenes which were performed before an audience (Taplin, 1993, p.6). Kabeiric ware and the sanctuary of the Kabeiroi Kabeiric ware appeared in the sanctuary in the mid-fifth century BC (Schachter, 1986, p.99), although there are a few examples of pottery with Kabeiric characteristics before this period. -
The New World Mythology in Italian Epic Poetry: 1492-1650
THE NEW WORLD MYTHOLOGY IN ITALIAN EPIC POETRY: 1492-1650 by CARLA ALOÈ A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Italian Studies School of Languages, Cultures, Art History and Music College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham September 2015 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT My thesis explores the construction of the New World mythology as it appears in early modern Italian epic poems. It focuses on how Italian writers engage with and contribute to this process of myth-creation; how the newly created mythology relates to the political, social and cultural context of the time; and investigates extent to which it was affected by the personal agendas of the poets. By analysing three New World myths (Brazilian Amazons, Patagonian giants and Canadian pygmies), it provides insights into the perception that Italians had of the newly discovered lands in the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries, as well as providing a greater understanding of the role that early modern Italy had in the ‘invention’ of the Americas.
