SLATER Beazley, coiranenting on a Siana cup in Berlin, showing three dolphins in the tondo, made a brilliant but daring interpre- tation; the painter was portraying the inside of the cup as a round harbour. Another similar cup in the Villa Giulia was to confirm this view, but one of the three dolphins has arms and plays the flute. Greifenhagen 2) commented: probably the painter had in mind the dolphin's notorious love of music, and he compared Pindar fr. 140 b Snell, 13-17: fepeOL^ouai.

But the most penetrating observation came from Erika Simon, 3) that the sea in which the musical dolphins play is a calm sea like Pindar's, and that the artist is representing the idea that calm is a prerequisite for the dolphin's song. I hope in the following pages to show that this is but one aspect of a theme that has a much wider significance. The dolphin in Pindar sings in a waveless sea, and we can assume that dolphins were not observed to sing save in calm weather. It may seem to stretch the limits of analogy to com- pare here the west pediment of the temple of Zeus at Olympia, showing the battle of the Lapiths and Centaurs with Apollo as the central figure, but here is the interpretation of Bernard Ashmole: 4) The scene is appropriate to the temple of Zeus in that Peirithoos was a grandson of Zeus; but its deeper signi- ficance lay in the presence of Apollo, the son of Zeus, patron of all the arts, and of all that makes life humane and decent. His presence ensures that civilized men shall prevail." 2 - 206 Illinois Classical Studies, VI . In these examples we have I suggest the expressions of a general idea, that civilized peace, represented by metapho- rical calm, dolphins, Apollo, his representatives or any other culture hero, must triumph over disorder symbolized by turbu- lent waves. Centaurs, or any of the other exempla for dis- orderly behaviour such as Giants or Titans. The basic under- lying idea is that peace is a precondition for civilization and culture. It was indeed an obvious thought that a city at war could not hold its festivals regularly, and Homer illus- trates this on the shield of Achilles [Iliad 18. 490 ff.); the city at war is contrasted with the city at peace, dis- tinguished by its festivity. Aristophanes repeatedly points to social festivity as one of the chief benefits of military peace. 5) But I should like to concentrate on another area where I believe that this idea was very much alive. The examples that I gave earlier have also in common a connection with symposia; the cups are drinking cups, whose message was read by the symposiast as he drained each draught, while the battle of the Lapiths and Centaurs resulted from the notorious break- down of order at a wedding celebration, becoming thereby the notorious exemplum for sympotic hybris. It was much easier for Greeks than for us to see in their symposia the same con- flict of peaceful civilized behaviour with disorderly brawling that they deplored in their political life, or in more sanguine moments conceived as Hellenism versus Barbarism. Peace as they were only too well aware is a prerequisite for harmonious convivality and its enemy is hybris. Greeks could see the dining room as a microcosm of the political world, as did Solon, 4.10 West: (oL riveu^ves dSLKoOvxEQ xaL uPpl^ovtes) ou yip tnioxavTai xaxixei-v k6pov o06fe uapouaae eOcppoouvas hoouelv 6aLT6s tv f\o\JXim- Solon moves naturally from the social unit of the polls to the more comprehensible unit of the assembled banqueters: one can extrapolate from the immediate environment to the larger and less appreciable world outside. Both function best in an atmosphere of concord; the word for this ideal is one of the ). ) , VJ. J. Slater 207 Hours, Eunomia, which we know to be a sympotic as well as a political slogan. Plato in fact also plays on its musical 7 8 sense. The opposite of Eunomia is Hybris , and this occurs in its most striking form in the drunken rioting of the sym- posium, for hybris is notoriously the effect of too much drinking. 9) Solon therefore can move easily from political hybris to the uncontrolled behaviour that ruined convival harmony I believe that speculation by poets about the atmosphere of symposia gave such thoughts more precise definition. Greeks took some trouble to ensure that harmony could prevail in their gatherings. Even before the philosophers wrote their sympotic laws, poets constructed a set of ideals to en- sure that their own harmony and music would be appreciated in the proper circumstances. The Graces appear as Euphrosyne Thalia^ Aglaia, the Hours as Eunomia^ Dike^ Eirene^ all of them connected by poets to poetry; to these, abstracts like Paidia and Hesyahia^ Sophrosyne and Euphrosyne , were easily added. But theory constructed an opposition with Hybris, Stasis, Polemos and Aphrosyne. By the end of the fifth century, political prose was producing a new language with words like Homonoia and Philanthropia to express political nuances; this both replaced the poetic mythology, and sepa- 12) rated the language of symposia from politics. Since it was poets who first devised these ideals, it is not surprising that it is in connection with poetry, music, and festivity that they are first used, and reach their greatest influence in the high baroque period of choral lyric. In the view of poets not only is war to be banned from symposia but even thoughts of war and warlike subjects that might inspire such thoughts. 13) Listeners are warned likewise about the effects of strong drink — piaxdiv duTt^Aou TiaL6a — that could lead to Scythian or centaurlike behaviour. They are reminded that Peace and the Horae are the enemies of Hybris, and that they are the prerequisites for song; the symposium will preferably sail on a calm sea. To achieve this, the symposium is placed under the guidance 14) of the Graces and Apollo, creator of good order.

  • Remembering Music in Early Greece
    REMEMBERING MUSIC IN EARLY GREECE JOHN C. FRANKLIN This paper contemplates various ways that the ancient Greeks preserved information about their musical past. Emphasis is given to the earlier periods and the transition from oral/aural tradition, when self-reflective professional poetry was the primary means of remembering music, to literacy, when festival inscriptions and written poetry could first capture information in at least roughly datable contexts. But the continuing interplay of the oral/aural and written modes during the Archaic and Classical periods also had an impact on the historical record, which from ca. 400 onwards is represented by historiographical fragments. The sources, methods, and motives of these early treatises are also examined, with special attention to Hellanicus of Lesbos and Glaucus of Rhegion. The essay concludes with a few brief comments on Peripatetic historiography and a selective catalogue of music-historiographical titles from the fifth and fourth centuries. INTRODUCTION Greek authors often refer to earlier music.1 Sometimes these details are of first importance for the modern historiography of ancient 1 Editions and translations of classical authors may be found by consulting the article for each in The Oxford Classical Dictionary3. Journal 1 2 JOHN C. FRANKLIN Greek music. Uniquely valuable, for instance, is Herodotus’ allusion to an Argive musical efflorescence in the late sixth century,2 nowhere else explicitly attested (3.131–2). In other cases we learn less about real musical history than an author’s own biases and predilections. Thus Plato describes Egypt as a never-never- land where no innovation was ever permitted in music; it is hard to know whether Plato fabricated this statement out of nothing to support his conservative and ideal society, or is drawing, towards the same end, upon a more widely held impression—obviously superficial—of a foreign, distant culture (Laws 656e–657f).

  • 12 Soothing Lyres and Epodai Music Therapy and the Cases of Orpheus
    Antonietta Provenza Soothing Lyres and epodai: Music Therapy and the Cases of Orpheus, Empedocles and David The Charms of Music: Harmonia, Music Therapy and Musical Ethos The psychagogic efficacy of music, namely its power to act on the soul in such a way as to influence characters and behaviors, and even health,1 is based in ancient Greek thought on a likeness between soul and musical harmony.2 This idea involves also a “harmonious” order distinguishing human physis as being a part of the world order (kosmos), as it is possible to notice at least since the time of the pre-Socratics. From many of the surviving fragments of their works3 we learn of the shift of the term harmonia4 (Bonaventura-Meyer 1932; Lippman 1963; Lambropoulou 1995–1996; Franklin 2002) from material aspects of human life 1 *I wish to express my heartfelt thanks to Dr. Joan Goodnick Westenholz and to Professors Yossi Maurey and Edwin Seroussi for the opportunity to present this paper and for their interest in my study of ancient Greek music. I would like also to thank Professors Salvatore Nicosia, Andrew D. Barker, John C. Franklin, Angelo Meriani, Eleonora Rocconi and the anonymous reviewer of this paper for their observations. See Anderson 1966; West 1992: 31–33 (quoting many references concerning the healing and soothing properties of music); West 2000: 51–68; Barker 2005. 2 This idea was discussed extensively in ancient Greece at least since the early Pythagoreans. Among the many evidence concerning the topic of soul and musical harmony, I mention here only the well-known passage in Plato’s Phaedo (85 e4–86 a3) where Simmias refers to the notion of soul as a harmonious blend of the elements composing the human body (verisimilarly recall- ing the physiological theories and the notion of isonomia of the Pythagorean physician Alcmae- on of Croton, see 24B4 DK = Aët.

  • Threnodic Elegy in Sparta Cecilia Nobili
    Threnodic Elegy in Sparta Cecilia Nobili OST STUDIES concerning the new elegy of Simonides for the fallen at Plataea acknowledge the Spartan M commission of the ode and the role played by the Spartan leader Pausanias in the extant fragments. It has been argued that the poem was composed to celebrate the Spartan soldiers who died at Plataea and was performed at a public festival which involved cultic ceremonies at the common graves.1 The Spartans, in fact, were buried on the battlefield according to the Spartan custom, and Thucydides testifies that they received offerings by the inhabitants of Plataea and were venerated as heroes.2 Later sources attest that an annual fes- tival called Eleutheria was instituted, possibly by the Athenian Aristides, in order to honour the Plataiomachoi, but the fifth- 1 A.
