Interpretations of Greek Mythology (Routledge Revivals) Routledge Revivals Interpretations of Greek Mythology Interpretations of Greek Mythology, first published in1987, builds on the innovative work of Walter Burkert and the ‘Paris school’ of Jean-Pierre Vernant, and represents a renewal of interpretation of Greek mythol­ ogy. The contributors to this volume present a variety of approaches to the Greek myths, all of which eschew a monolithic or exclusively structuralist hermeneutic method. Specifically, the notion that mythology can simply be read as a primitive mode of narrative history is rejected, with emphasis instead being placed on the relationships between mythology and history, ritual and political genealogy. The essays concentrate on some of the best known characters and themes — Oedipus, Orpheus, Narcissus — reflecting the complexity and fascination of the Greek imagination. The volume will long remain an indispensable tool for the study of Greek mythology, and it is of great interest to anyone interested in the development of Greek culture and civilisation and the nature of myth.

Following analyses of the concept of myth and the influence of the Orient on Greek mythology, the succeeding chap­ ters shed new light on the threatening appearance of wolf and werewolf and on such familiar figures as Oedipus, Orpheus and Narcissus. The puzzling relationship of myth and ritual is illum­ inated by a discussion of the ambiguities in the traditions sur­ rounding Kronos. Where does myth end and history begin? Studies of the first Spartan and Athenian kings demonstrate ways in which myth is manipulated to suit history, and an examination of the early stages of the Delphic oracle shows that some history is actually myth. Finally, an analysis of Greek mythography illus­ trates how myths were handed down in the Greek tradition before they became part and parcel of Western civilisation. The volume is concluded with a bibliography of the best mythological studies of recent decades. All chapters are based on the most recent insights and methods, and they display a great variety of approaches. The volume would never have materialised without a chance meeting with Richard Stoneman, Senior Editor at Croom Helm. I am very grateful for his most pleasant co-operation in the prepara­ tion of this book. I also owe grateful thanks to Sarah Johnston and Ken Dowden, who were willing to shoulder the difficult task of revising most of the translations. Kees Kuiphof skilfully gave cartographical assistance. Finally, a Dutch initiative in mythology would have greatly Preface surprised Friedrich Creuzer, one of the great students of Greek mythology in the nineteenth century. Having left Heidelberg in the summer of 1809 to take up a professorship at Leiden, he soon returned to Germany: for, as he put it, he could not conceive any mythological thoughts because the country was too flat.1 H olland still has no mountains, but interest in mythology abounds as we hope this book may show. J.B. Ede, Holland Note 1. Cf. F. Creuzer, Aus dem Leben eines alien Professors (Leipzig and Darmstadt, 1848): “ In Holland dann — feine Stadte, hubsche Leute — aber ich konnte keinen mythologischen Gedanken fassen in dem flachen Lande.” I owe this reference to Albert Henrichs. 1 What is a Greek Myth? Jan Bremmer What exactly is a Greek m yth?1 In the past, many solutions to this problem have been proposed, but in the course of time all have proved to be unsatisfactory.2 The most recent analyses stress that myth belongs to the more general class of traditional tales. For example, Walter Burkert, the greatest living expert on Greek religion, has stated that ‘myth is a traditional tale with secondary, partial reference to something of collective importance’.3 This definition raises three important problems that we will discuss briefly in this introduction. First, how traditional is a Greek myth? Second, to what degree does Greek myth contain matter of col­ lective importance? And finally, if myth is a traditional tale — what then is the difference between myth and other genres of traditional tales, such as the fairy-tale or the legend? 1.

G. L. Hammond TUDENTS of ancient history sometimes fall into the error of read­ Sing their history backwards. They assume that the features of a fully developed institution were already there in its earliest form. Something similar seems to have happened recently in the study of the early Attic theatre. Thus T. B. L. Webster introduces his excellent list of monuments illustrating tragedy and satyr-play with the following sentences: "Nothing, except the remains of the old Dionysos temple, helps us to envisage the earliest tragic background. The references to the plays of Aeschylus are to the lines of the Loeb edition. I am most grateful to G. S. Kirk, H. D. F. Kitto, D. W. Lucas, F. H. Sandbach, B. A. Sparkes and Homer Thompson for their criticisms, which have contributed greatly to the final form of this article. The students of the Classical Society at Bristol produce a Greek play each year, and on one occasion they combined with the boys of Bristol Grammar School and the Cathedral School to produce Aeschylus' Oresteia; they have made me think about the problems of staging.

And this is not confined to the men who are said to have taken part in the Trojan war, but it embraces the "mythical world of the past" 2), that of the demigods 3), the rivers 4) and even the gods 5).

    ------~~==~================~======~~~~~~~~~========~r_---------------------------------------------.---. A NOTE fROM THE CHAIR t». C,~VltVlitil Ailt1Vl Department of Communication Welcome to the 2014-2015 season of the Pittsburg State Theatre! This is a smaller production season than usual due to the major move into the Bicknell Family Center for the Arts complex. You can imagine what all the years of tools, equipment, costumes, lumber racks, etc. from our Whitesitt shop will be like to move across campus. Fortunately, that effort, led by Megan Westhoff and Lisa Quinteros, will be a successful one, I'm sure. This transition year for us is one of great excitement and anticipation for the opportunity to further develop and grow our theatre program. It also gives me great pleasure to take this opportunity to thank the alumni of the Pitt State theatre program. The excellent productions created by scores of previous students are, in part, what helped cement the support and belief in the theatre program and the need for a real performing arts center. Whether you currently work in the theatre profession or not, your dedication to Pitt State Theatre while a student is appreciated and respected. You are the legacy of this program and you set the bar high. We honor you and thank you. Lindsey Lockhart (Eurydice) and Gil Cooper (Her Father). The 2014/2015 season begins October 23-25 with You Can't Take It With You, by Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman and directed by yours truly, Cynthia Allan. This raucous comedy, set in the days of the Depression, centers on the Sycamore family and their individualistic approach to life.

Refresh and try again. For a small book it packs a hefty punch, with a clear and engaging style that should be accessible to a wide audience. The philosopher also asserted that the action of epic poetry and tragedy differ in length, "because in tragedy every effort is made for it to take place in one revolution of the sun, while the epic is unlimited in time. Another novelty of Euripidean drama is represented by the realism with which the playwright portrays his characters' psychological dynamics. The Greek chorus of up to 50 men and boys danced and sang in a circle, probably accompanied by an aulos , relating to some event in the life of Dionysus. As elsewhere in the book, the chapter kicks off with contextual information, this time on the prevalence of choruses in ancient Greek life, and proceeds to a discussion of their tragic manifestation. After a brief analysis of the genre and main figures, it focuses on the broader questions of what defines tragedy, what its particular preoccupations are, and what makes these texts so widely studied and performed more than 2, years after they were written.

  • Mythology Study Questions
    Greek Mythology version 1.0 Notes: These are study questions on Apollodorus’ Library of Greek Mythology. They are best used during or after reading the Library, though many of them can be used independently. In some cases Apollodorus departs from other NJCL sources, and those other sources are more authoritative/likely to come up on tests and in Certamen. In particular, it is wise to read the epics (Iliad, Odyssey, Aeneid, Metamorphoses) for the canonical versions of several stories. Most of these are in question form, and suitable for use as certamen questions, but many of the later questions are in the format of NJCL test questions instead. Students should not be worried by the number of questions here, or the esoteric nature of some of them. Mastering every one of these questions is unnecessary except, perhaps, for those aiming to get a top score on the NJCL Mythology Exam, compete at the highest levels of Certamen, and the like. Further, many of the questions here are part of longer stories; learning a story will often help a student answer several of the questions at once. Apollodorus does an excellent job of presenting stories succinctly and clearly. The best translation of the Library currently available is probably the Oxford Word Classics edition by Robin Hard. That edition is also excellent for its notes, which include crucial information that Apollodorus omits as well as comparisons with other versions of the stories. I am grateful for any corrections, comments, or suggestions. You can contact me at [email protected]. New versions of this list will be posted occasionally.
