Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ABSTRACT The thesis is an attempt to view the iconography of A ttic vase-painting of the Late Geometric II period, in re­ latio n to the previous Late Geometric I period as well as the ensuing Early P rotoattic and to establish and in te rp re t the origin and meaning of the various iconographie themes. The main body of the work begins with a detailed look at those iconographie representations which are found in both Late Geometric I and Late Geometric II . The purely dec­ orative animal representations such as goats, deer and horses are studied f i r s t , while the more complex narrative scenes such as prothesis and chariot representations follow. Chapter II deals only with the Late Geometric II inno­ vations, for example riders, man and lions, as well as animals, grazing horses, bulls,dogs and fantastic animals such as cen­ taurs, sphinxes and winged goats. In chapter III, three different workshops are studied, each one distinguished for its predilection for specific ico­ nographie themes, such as hunting, cu lt scenes and the various schemes of man with horses and horses with tripods. In a ll three chapters the iconography of other areas of the Greek world especially Euboea, Boeotia, Argos and Crete is drawn for comparison and the possible influences of the Mycenaean world as well as the Near East are also considered. New workshops and individual painters are also studied; since the main subject of the thesis is iconography and not workshops, these new workshops are included in the Appendix, Finally the relationship between iconography and shape, and iconography and workshops is studied. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Special thanks are due to my academic supervisor Professor J.N.Coldstream, who gave me throughout the benefit of his invaluable advice and constructive criticism. Many scholars have helped and encouraged me: Dr.Barbara Bohen and Dr. Ursula Knigge of the German In s titu te in Athens gave me permission to study in d e ta il the Geometric vases and sherds in the Kerameikos Museum Athens. There is also a long lis t of Museum authorities who allowed me to study the vases in their collections and who provided me with photographs or gave me permission to take my own.

God sends his angel to Tortosa down, Godfrey unites the Christian Peers and Knights; And all the Lords and Princes of renown Choose him their Duke, to rule the wares and fights. He mustereth all his host, whose number known, He sends them to the fort that Sion hights; The aged tyrant Juda's land that guides, In fear and trouble, to resist provides. I The sacred armies, and the godly knight, That the great sepulchre of Christ did free, I sing; much wrought his valor and foresight, And in that glorious war much suffered he; In vain 'gainst him did Hell oppose her might, In vain the Turks and Morians armed be: His soldiers wild, to brawls and mutinies prest, Reduced he to peace, so Heaven him blest. II O heavenly Muse, that not with fading bays Deckest thy brow by the Heliconian spring, But sittest crowned with stars' immortal rays In Heaven, where legions of bright angels sing; page 2 / 730 Inspire life in my wit, my thoughts upraise, My verse ennoble, and forgive the thing, If fictions light I mix with truth divine, And fill these lines with other praise than thine. III Thither thou know'st the world is best inclined Where luring Parnass most his sweet imparts, And truth conveyed in verse of gentle kind To read perhaps will move the dullest hearts: So we, if children young diseased we find, Anoint with sweets the vessel's foremost parts To make them taste the potions sharp we give; They drink deceived, and so deceived, they live.

His screams are heard by his mother, Thetis, from the depths of the sea. She calls on her nymphs (Nereids) to come to her son’s aid. “With these the bright cave was filled, and the nymphs all alike, beat their breasts, and Thetis led the lament.” The names of ancient Greek sea nymphs are recalled throughout the work.

  • THE INTERPRETATION of THEBAN MYTHS in LATE MEDIAEVAL LITERATURE David Anderson for Richard Hamilton Green
    MYTHOGRAPHY OR HISTORIOGRAPHY? THE INTERPRETATION OF THEBAN MYTHS IN LATE MEDIAEVAL LITERATURE David Anderson For Richard Hamilton Green The modern term "classical myth" covers a range of legendary subjects which mediaeval writers commonly distinguished as tabula or historia; or, with the addition of a third term, as 1) things which could have happened and did happen (historia); 2) things which could have happened but did not (argumentum) ; and 3) things which could not have happened and did not happen, such as the preposterous high jinks of the pagan gods (fabula).* Though the mediaeval Latin word historia and the derivative loan-words in vernacular languages, such as Middle English "storie," do not correspond exactly to the meaning of Modern English "history," they stood always and clearly in contrast to fabula, which denoted a lie, a falsehood. By the fourteenth century, writers were using this pair of terms with the informality accorded an unquestioned convention. In one well-known example, Chaucer's Physician remarks that the tale of Appius and Virginia "is no fable, / but knowen for historial thyng notable" (154-55); and in another, Boccaccio distinguishes the fabulous from the historical characters and events in Vergil's Aeneid, book 4 (Genealogie 14.13). Accounts of the "myths" of the ancient cities of Thebes and Troy often focussed on the question of fabulous and historical elements in the received sources: Guido delle Colonne, for one, sets it as his task to "separate the true from the false among the things which were written of [Trojan] history in Latin 2 books," an assertion which John Lydgate translates and expands in the prologue to his Troy Book.

Tel: 0207 679 1525 Office hours: Tuesday, Wednesday 11am-12pm 1. Overview of course: This module is designed to develop in students the skills of careful looking, and detailed visual analysis, grounded in a strong awareness of the major theoretical issues, which are central to research in classical art history. It will take the form of a series of seminars addressing key themes in the historiography of classical art through detailed consideration of specific works of art in the British Museum and other London museums, where most classes will be held. Alongside traditional concerns with issues of style and iconography, a particular emphasis will be laid on questions of ‘facture’, ‘materiality’ and ‘agency’ which have been at the centre of recent discussions in archaeology, the anthropology of art and art history. Particular themes and classes may vary from year to year to reflect students’ own research interests, new publications and special exhibitions. Module schedule: Classes will be held in the British Museum, 2-4pm every Tuesday. We will meet in the Great Court at the Entrance to the Egyptian Galleries. 3/10/17: 1.

According to Iliad, Book 19,395-424, the horses of Achilles spoke to him a word of warning before his entry into battle, and in Num 22:21-34 Balaam’s donkey complained of the unfair beating he received from Balaam when trying to avoid the threatening angel of the Lord (Num 22:21-34). The stories are not similar enough to declare that the biblical author used the Greek narrative for a template. However, both are unusual narratives that bear some particular similarities with each other. It would appear to me that as the biblical author crafted his or her story, the author consciously reacted against some of the underlying themes in the Homeric narrative. Keywords: Achilles, Balaam, Homer, Iliad, donkey, angel of the Lord INTRODUCTION mighty Achilles, though the day of doom is near you, nor will we be the cause of it, but a mighty Tales are told in the ancient world about talking god and overpowering Fate.

Personhood and agency in the earliest 1 Greek inscriptions (800–550 BC) James Whitley Introduction: the view from Methana The archaeological museum in Poros is not much visited. In summer, the harbours and jetties of Poros are crowded with yachts on their way from Athens to the islands of the Saronic Gulf and the Southern Argolid – Aegina, Poros, Hydra and Spetses.
