Strattis, Tragedy, and Comedy Strattis, Tragedy, and Comedy Sarah Miles Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy February 2009 Abstract This study comprises a translation, textual commentary, and discussion of the fragments of the Old comic dramatist Strattis which engage with tragedy. It forms the centre of a wider examination of the art of paratragedy and tragic parody in Old Comedy because paratragedy represents the earliest reception of tragedy and one that is contemporary with the initial live performances of tragic plays. Ancient and modern scholarship alike has viewed Aristophanes as the dominant figure in the art of paratragedy and tragic parody. Strattis, a contemporary of Aristophanes, was active in the late fifth and early fourth centuries BC and the fragments of his comedies indicate a sustained and wide ranging interaction with contemporary tragedy which is rivalled only by Aristophanic comedy. This is particularly remarkable since the extant corpus of Strattis numbers less than ninety fragments. This work explores the phenomenon of paratragedy beyond Aristophanic paratragedy and raises awareness of the importance of Strattis in this respect. It begins with a survey of paratragedy in other non-Aristophanic fragments of Old Comedy and it examines the various ways that comedy engages with tragedy, indicating the depth and breadth of paratragedy in comic fragments. This provides the foundations on which to examine the fragments of Strattis through a text, translation and commentary on those fragments that engage with tragedy. It leads to a discussion of the works of Strattis overall for their use of tragedy and myth, which allows us to note characteristics of Strattis’ work. This enables a comparison of the paratragedy in the comedies of Strattis and Aristophanes which allows us to reassess the uniqueness of Aristophanic paratragedy and to consider reasons for the popularity of paratragedy in the late fifth century BC. Acknowledgements I owe the greatest debt of gratitude to Prof. Alan Sommerstein for guidance, patience, ideas and, most of all, enjoyable discussions about comedy (of all kinds). My heartfelt thanks go to members of the Classics Department at Nottingham for their friendliness and support, and also to the School of Humanities for providing me with a studentship which allowed me time and space to research. Especial and personal thanks must go to my family for their continual support and love, and especially to Jez, for love, laughter and life.

    Lectures on Greek Poetry 1 2 ADAM MICKIEWICZ UNIVERSITY IN POZNAŃ CLASSICAL PHILOLOGY SERIES NO. 35 GERSON SCHADE Lectures on Greek Poetry POZNAŃ 2016 3 ABSTRACT. Gerson Schade, Lectures on Greek Poetry [Wykłady o poezji greckiej]. Adam Mickiewicz University Press. Poznań 2016. Pp. 226. Classical Philology Series No. 35. ISBN 978-83-232-3108-0. ISSN 0554-8160. Text in English with a summary in German. The series of lectures contained in this volume were written for students at Adam Mic- kiewicz University. A first group of these lectures are intended to serve as an introduc- tion to Greek poetry of the archaic, classical and pre-Hellenistic age. They treat a selection of texts, ranging from the eighth to the fourth century BC. A second group of these lec- tures focuses on Homer’s Iliad: while the whole work is treated, the lectures follow the story of Achilles, which is developed mainly in five books. All texts are provided in trans- lation, and secondary literature is discussed and used to make the texts more accessible for young students interested in poetry. The lectures introduce to some of the main issues that characterise the texts, such as their relationship to their primary audience, the impact of orality, and the influence of the eastern poetic tradition on the Greeks. Where appro- priate, the lectures also treat the interrelation between various texts, their intertextuality. They try to answer the questions of how poetry did work then, and why these texts do matter for the European poetic tradition.

    23 Later Euripidean Music ERIC CSAPO In memory of Desmond Conacher, a much-loved teacher, colleague, andfriend. I. The Scholarship In the last two decades of the twentieth century several important general books marked a resurgence of interest in Greek music: Barker 1984 and 1989, Comotti 1989a (an expanded English translation of a work in Italian written in 1979), M. L. West 1992, W. D. Anderson 1994, Neubecker 1994 (second edition of a work of 1977), and Landels 1999. These volumes provide good general guides to the subject, with particular strengths in ancient theory and practice, the history of musical genres, technical innovations, the reconstruction and use of ancient instruments, ancient musical notation, documents, metrics, and reconstructions of ancient scales, modes, and genera. They are too broadly focussed to give much attention to tragedy. Euripidean music receives no more than three pages in any of these works (a little more is usually allocated to specific discussion of the musical fragment of Orestes). Fewer books were devoted to music in drama. Even stretching back another decade, we have: one general book on tragic music, Pintacuda 1978, two books by Scott on "musical design" in Aeschylus (1984) and in Sophocles (1996), and two books devoted to Aristophanes' music, Pintacuda 1982 and L. P. E. Parker 1997. Pintacuda 1978 offers three chapters on basic background, and one chapter for each of the poets. The chapter on Euripides (shared with a fairly standard account of the New Musicians), contains less than four pages of general discussion of Euripides' relationship to the New Music (164-68), which is followed by fifty pages of blow-by-blow description of the musical numbers in each play—a mildly caffeinated catalogue-style already familiar from Webster 1970b: 110-92 and revisited by Scott.

  • The Hybris of Socrates: a Platonic 'Revaluation of Values' in T
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by MURAL - Maynooth University Research Archive Library The hybris of Socrates 43 The hybris of Socrates: A Platonic ‘revaluation of values’ in the Symposium Will Desmond Abstract: In the final speech of Plato’s Symposium, the young, aristocratic Alcibiades accuses Socrates of being characteristically hybristic. This is a startling claim that requires explanation, in relation both to the rest of the Symposium and to Plato’s broader ethical and metaphysical concerns. Previous interpretations of the meaning and purpose of Alcibiades’ speech miss the main point: namely, the notion of a philosphical or Socratic hybris complements the discussion by Socrates-Diotima of the ideal nature of eros. Just as all desire in fact aims at eternal ends, so the Platonic philosopher acts ‘hybristically’, by typically asserting his own activity and insights vis-à-vis temporal, contingent values. Therefore, Alcibiades’ speech should be understood in the context of a more general Platonic ‘revaluation of values’ that reorients traditional words and concepts towards ideal ends. At the end of Plato’s Symposium, Alcibiades bursts into Agathon’s house and proceeds to deliver a speech in praise of Socrates. It is a deeply ambivalent speech. Intermixed with genuine admiration for Socrates’ moral virtues, intelligence and physical strength, is the recurrent and insistent condemnation of Socrates for hybris. Alcibiades levels the charge at the beginning of his speech when he compares Socrates to the satyr Marsyas: ‘You are a hybristes, Socrates. If you deny it, I will produce witnesses’.

  • Agathon's 'Ilioupersis'
    Agathon’s Ilioupersis in Aristophanes’ Thesmophoriazusae Existing scholarship has shown how Aristophanes in the Thesmophoriazusae parodies Agathon’s style and music (Rau 1967, p. 104; Paduano 1983, pp. 85-6; Bierl 2001, pp. 163-4; Austin-Olson 2004, p. 87; Mastromarco-Totaro 2006, p. 449.), but this focus on form has led to relative neglect of content. In my paper, I show how the playwright mocks the content of Agathon’s tragedies as well. At line 101, Agathon enters singing a freshly-composed choral song. This song, though an invention, is also a means by which Aristophanes mocks a specific tragedy by Agathon on the destruction of Troy. To make this argument, I defend the manuscript reading in the first strophe of the song (lines 101-103): for its obscurity, the expression cu\n e)leuqe/r# / patri/di xoreu/sasqai boa/n has been considered corrupted and emended in many different ways by many different scholars. I defend the reading of the manuscript, proposing a new interpretation of the passage, based on a rhetorical analysis of these lines, and arguing that the poet is referring here to the last day of Troy. Then I discuss the presence of Leto, Apollo and Diana in the song, three divinities tightly connected with the city of Troy, and the allusion to the foundation of a city by Apollo, the mythical founder of Troy. This Trojan tragedy is the one referred to by Aristotle (Poet. 1456 a 11-19) among the worst examples of tragic art. I argue that Aristophanes in the Thesmophoriazusae has Agathon sing a song about Troy because he wants to mock this tragedy, which at his time, as well as some decades later (as Aristotle attests), was considered the most poorly composed and received of Agathon’s works.

    Ancient Macedonians This article is about the native inhabitants of the historical kingdom of Macedonia. For the modern ethnic Greek people from Macedonia, Greece, see Macedonians (Greeks). For other uses, see Ancient Macedonian (disambiguation) and Macedonian (disambiguation). From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ANCIENT MACEDONIANS ΜΑΚΕΔΌΝΕΣ Stag Hunt Mosaic, 4th century BC Languages. Ancient Macedonian, then Attic Greek, and later Koine Greek Religion. ancient Greek religion The Macedonians (Greek: Μακεδόνες, Makedónes) were an ancient tribe that lived on the alluvial plain around the rivers Haliacmonand lower Axios in the northeastern part of mainland Greece. Essentially an ancient Greek people,[1] they gradually expanded from their homeland along the Haliacmon valley on the northern edge of the Greek world, absorbing or driving out neighbouring non-Greek tribes, primarily Thracian and Illyrian.[2][3] They spoke Ancient Macedonian, a language closely related to Ancient Greek, perhaps a dialect, although the prestige language of the region was at first Attic and then Koine Greek.[4] Their religious beliefs mirrored those of other Greeks, following the main deities of the Greek pantheon, although the Macedonians continued Archaic burial practices that had ceased in other parts of Greece after the 6th century BC. Aside from the monarchy, the core of Macedonian society was its nobility. Similar to the aristocracy of neighboring Thessaly, their wealth was largely built on herding horses and cattle. Although composed of various clans, the kingdom of Macedonia, established around the 8th century BC, is mostly associated with the Argead dynasty and the tribe named after it. The dynasty was allegedly founded by Perdiccas I, descendant of the legendary Temenus of Argos, while the region of Macedon perhaps derived its name from Makedon, a figure of Greek mythology.

McGlew And approved by ___________________________________ ___________________________________ ___________________________________ ___________________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey May, 2017 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION ACTORS AND CONSPIRATORS: CIVIC ANXIETY IN LATE ATTIC TRAGEDY By SCOTT ASHER WILLIAM BARNARD Dissertation Director: James F. McGlew In the year 411 BC, Athens endured a brief but violent political revolution at a moment when the city’s fortunes were declining in the late stage of the Peloponnesian War. This “coup of 411” was driven by a relatively small number of oligarchic sympathizers who conspired in secret to overthrow the democratic Athenian government and install themselves at the head of a new oligarchic regime, that, they believed, would secure desperately needed aid from the Persian Empire against their Spartan enemies. For all of the civic turbulence these oligarchic conspirators caused, their government collapsed after only a few months and Athenian citizens were left to reinstall their fragile democracy. In the aftermath of the coup of 411 (and other conspiracies that preceded it) the citizens of Athens were particularly agitated by the possibility that other conspiracies may have been active in the city, and there is evidence that a sense of mutual suspicion was pervasive. And yet, in spite of the political upheaval many of Athens’ civic and cultural institutions remained active – including the annual celebration of the City Dionysia, the festival that served as the venue for the production of Greek tragedy.
