EDITED BY J. U. POWELL and E. A. BARBER OXFORD AT THE CLARENDON PRESS 1921 PREFACE When Mr. Evelyn Abbott wrote with truth in his glowing preface to Hellenica (1879), 'We have not done with the Hellenes yet . ; we have not entered into full possession of the inheritance bequeathed to us', he had in his mind, as he goes on to show, the significance of Greek history and literature, rather than additions to our knowledge due to the discovery of new texts. But although some years were to elapse, his words in another sense have come true. Twelve years in 1 1 a new of Greek afterwards, 89 , epoch scholarship opened, not only in this country, but in others ; for in that year Professor Mahaffy published the first part of the Petrie Papyri which Professor Flinders Petrie had discovered, containing parts of the Phaedo of Plato and of the Antiope of Euripides, with fragments of Homer, and other pieces ; while the Trustees of the British Museum published Aristotle's ' Athenian Con stitution', the Mimes of Herondas, who had been hitherto little more than a name, and part of a new speech by Hyperides. Other discoveries followed ; six years later, in 1897, the British Museum pub lished the Odes of Bacchylides, and Messrs. Gren- fell and Hunt began the series of discoveries at Oxyrhynchus, the publication of which has proceeded up to the present time. Nor must we forget the VI PREFACE important accessions from Inscriptions, such as Isyllus of Epidaurus, and the Hymns of Aristonous and others from Delphi. It is a misfortune to British scholarship that our histories of Greek Literature, with the exception of Professor Mahaffy's books, stop short with the death of Demosthenes, or treat but briefly of the succeeding centuries. We have nothing like the admirable and comprehensive history of MM. Croiset in France. But although the following pages do not profess to give an ' ' account of what is called the Alexandrian age of Greek Literature, we hope that, through the new texts which are treated of in them, they will make large additions to our knowledge of the literature during the fourth and following centuries b. c. up to the beginning of the Roman Era in the Greek world (which may conveniently be dated with the formation of the Province of Achaea after the capture of Corinth in and 146 b.c), may encourage future writers on the subject to lengthen their range. The number of the additions is surprisingly large. We may also hope that the Oxford and Continental which Papyri have been, or may be, recovered from and Egypt Herculaneum, will provide new material even more valuable and interesting than that which is to presented the reader, in most cases for the first in the time, following pages. A revised text of most of the discoveries mentioned in the first and second sections of the table of contents is ready for the press. A convenient summary of Greek Papyri and their PREFACE vn contribution to classical literature is given by Sir F. G. Kenyon in a paper bearing that title, published by the Cambridge. University Press in 191 8, and also printed in the Jotirnal ofHellenic Studies, vol. xxxix, pp. 1 sqq. ; and in his article 'Greek Papyri and Recent Discoveries', Quarterly Review, vol. 208, p. 333. See also a paper ' by Professor Grenfell on The Value of Papyri for the Textual Criticism of Extant Greek Authors', Journal of Hellenic Studies, vol. xxxix, pp. 16 sqq. The fullest account is given in the various numbers of Archiv filr Papyrusforschung, edited by U. Wilcken, and by W. Schubart in Einfuhrung in die Papyruskunde, Berlin, 1918. There is no collection of the new poems which have been preserved in Inscriptions. It may be added, that, while exercising a general supervision over the articles, we have allowed to each contributor the expression of his individual opinions. J. U. P. E. A. B. Oxford, May 192 1.

I THE MORALISTS DURING the last twenty years the laborious researches of scholars and the happy discovery of certain illuminating papyri have thrown much light on the popular philosophy of the Hellenistic period. The great importance in this sphere of the so-called Aiarpi^f] has been generally recognized, and a very considerable store of philosophic commonplaces has been collected from later writers, Greek and Roman, and derived with much probability from the popular teachers of this age. It is admitted that among these teachers the most conspicuous were the Cynic missionaries ; the type which we find fully developed under the Roman Empire, but which was already represented in the third century B. c. At the same time it is a mistake to claim all this moralizing for the Cynic school. By the third century many of the ideas which, in the days of Antisthenes or even Diogenes, were peculiar to that sect, had become the common property of all men, and were given literary expression by authors of any or no philosophic school. Of the two poets to be considered in this section Cercidas is proved by external and internal evidence to have been a Cynic, while Phoenix appears to be no more affected by Cynic ideas than any man who wrote as a popular philosopher in that age was bound to be. In other words, the contempt for the ordinary standards of civilized life, the criticism of society, the exalta had tion of the poor and oppressed, ideas which the Cynics been the first to introduce into Greek literature, became in time the weapons of any democrat with a turn for satire who was against the established order, or for the nonce pretended to be against it. The Diatribe proper is a prose composition, being originally the form which the philosophers of the streets gave to their popular addresses. The topic of each is generally some well- 21*5 B a THE MORALISTS &c, but the worn theme, such as Wealth, Death, Marriage, writer contrives to give it life by vivid metaphors, witty the anecdotes, striking antitheses, or apt quotations from poets. its influence felt It was inevitable that the genre should make of fact we can in the poetry of the age, and as a matter point and to Cynic Tragedies, Satiric Elegies, Epic Parodies, Iambic Moralizings, all of them affected in various degrees the of these facts that by the prose diatribe.

Book description. Main article: Iliad. Enraged and humiliated, Ajax is driven mad by Athena. By signing up, you agree to our Privacy Notice. Relatively little is given of Odysseus' background other than that according to Pseudo-Apollodorus, his paternal grandfather or step- grandfather is Arcesius , son of Cephalus and grandson of Aeolus , while his maternal grandfather is the thief Autolycus , son of Hermes [16] and Chione. It gives the chronology of Ulysses' voyage, and is illustrated with photographs and maps. That the object of his quest has not been alive for at least three thousand years matters less than that the Mediterranean is today much as it was in that long ago period: the storms still rage in winter, the Levanter still blows from the east for days at a time, and the islands and harbors are still more or less where the legendary mariner would have found them. There are no discussion topics on this book yet. After travelling west and south for five months, they see in the distance a great mountain rising from the sea this is Purgatory , in Dante's cosmology before a storm sinks them. Is it really possible for anyone to become lost in the bathtub of the Mediterranean for 20 years? However, the Coens have stated that they had never read the epic.

Epigtoaphic Bulletin for Greek Religion 1996 (EBGR 1996) The ninth issue of the BEGR contains only part of the epigraphie harvest of 1996; unforeseen circumstances have prevented me and my collaborators from covering all the publications of 1996, but we hope to close the gaps next year. We have also made several additions to previous issues. In the past years the BEGR had often summarized publications which were not primarily of epigraphie nature, thus tending to expand into an unavoidably incomplete bibliography of Greek religion. From this issue on we return to the original scope of this bulletin, whieh is to provide information on new epigraphie finds, new interpretations of inscriptions, epigraphieal corpora, and studies based p;imarily on the epigraphie material. Only if we focus on these types of books and articles, will we be able to present the newpublications without delays and, hopefully, without too many omissions.

  • 1 Reading Athenaios' Epigraphical Hymn to Apollo: Critical Edition And
    Reading Athenaios’ Epigraphical Hymn to Apollo: Critical Edition and Commentaries DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Corey M. Hackworth Graduate Program in Greek and Latin The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Fritz Graf, Advisor Benjamin Acosta-Hughes Carolina López-Ruiz 1 Copyright by Corey M. Hackworth 2015 2 Abstract This dissertation is a study of the Epigraphical Hymn to Apollo that was found at Delphi in 1893, and since attributed to Athenaios. It is believed to have been performed as part of the Athenian Pythaïdes festival in the year 128/7 BCE. After a brief introduction to the hymn, I provide a survey and history of the most important editions of the text. I offer a new critical edition equipped with a detailed apparatus. This is followed by an extended epigraphical commentary which aims to describe the history of, and arguments for and and against, readings of the text as well as proposed supplements and restorations. The guiding principle of this edition is a conservative one—to indicate where there is uncertainty, and to avoid relying on other, similar, texts as a resource for textual restoration. A commentary follows, which traces word usage and history, in an attempt to explore how an audience might have responded to the various choices of vocabulary employed throughout the text. Emphasis is placed on Athenaios’ predilection to utilize new words, as well as words that are non-traditional for Apolline narrative. The commentary considers what role prior word usage (texts) may have played as intertexts, or sources of poetic resonance in the ears of an audience.

Structure as Interpretation in the Odyssey ‘Defining Greek Literature’ poses an interesting challenge for Homerists, like myself, committed to the proposition that the epics reflect the compositional practices of oral poetry the world over.1 In terms of formal approaches, many scholars, including contributors to this volume, have found it productive to apply narratology to elucidate Homer, a methodology with greater universalizing assumptions than oral theory. Nevertheless, an aspect of the epics that I believe is distinctive, and in certain respects unique, is the ways in which they manipulate traditional conventions so as to guide reception. Although Scodel rightly cautions against assuming homogenous audiences of epic connoisseurs, the practice does, I think, imply audience members able to recognise the patterns and respond to the manipulation.

  • Oracular Prophecy and Psychology in Ancient Greek Warfare
    ORACULAR PROPHECY AND PSYCHOLOGY IN ANCIENT GREEK WARFARE Peter McCallum BA (Hons) MA A thesis submitted to the University of Wales Trinity Saint David in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Classics University of Wales Trinity Saint David June 2017 Director of Studies: Dr Errietta Bissa Second Supervisor: Dr Kyle Erickson Abstract This thesis examines the role of oracular divination in warfare in Archaic, Classical, and Hellenistic Greece, and assesses the extent to which it affected the psychology and military decision-making of ancient Greek poleis. By using a wide range of ancient literary, epigraphical, archaeological, and iconographical evidence and relevant modern scholarship, this thesis will fully explore the role of the Oracle in warfare, especially the influence of the major Oracles at Delphi, Dodona, Olympia, Didyma, and Ammon on the foreign policies and military strategies of poleis and their psychological preparation for war; as well as the effect of oracular prophecies on a commander’s decision- making and tactics on the battlefield, and on the psychology and reactions of soldiers before and during battle. This thesis contends that oracular prophecy played a fundamental and integral part in ancient Greek warfare, and that the act of consulting the Oracles, and the subsequent prognostications issued by the Oracles, had powerful psychological effects on both the polis citizenry and soldiery, which in turn had a major influence and impact upon military strategy and tactics, and ultimately on the outcome of conflicts in the ancient Greek world. Declarations/Statements DECLARATION This work has not previously been accepted in substance for any degree and is not being concurrently submitted in candidature for any degree.

  • Download Date | 6/9/19 10:06 AM Pseudo-Pythagorean Literature 73
    Philologus 2019; 163(1): 72–94 Leonid Zhmud* What is Pythagorean in the Pseudo-Pythagorean Literature? https://doi.org/10.1515/phil-2018-0003 Abstract: This paper discusses continuity between ancient Pythagoreanism and the pseudo-Pythagorean writings, which began to appear after the end of the Pythagorean school ca. 350 BC. Relying on a combination of temporal, formal and substantial criteria, I divide Pseudopythagorica into three categories: 1) early Hellenistic writings (late fourth – late second centuries BC) ascribed to Pytha- goras and his family members; 2) philosophical treatises written mostly, yet not exclusively, in pseudo-Doric from the turn of the first century BC under the names of real or fictional Pythagoreans; 3) writings attributed to Pythagoras and his relatives that continued to appear in the late Hellenistic and Imperial periods. I will argue that all three categories of pseudepigrapha contain astonishingly little that is authentically Pythagorean. Keywords: Pythagoreanism, pseudo-Pythagorean writings, Platonism, Aristote- lianism Forgery has been widespread in time and place and varied in its goals and methods, and it can easily be confused with superficially similar activities. A. Grafton Note: An earlier version of this article was presented at the colloquium “Pseudopythagorica: stratégies du faire croire dans la philosophie antique” (Paris, 28 May 2015). I would like to thank Constantinos Macris (CNRS) for his kind invitation. The final version was written during my fellowship at the IAS of Durham University and presented at the B Club, Cambridge, in Mai 2016. I am grateful to Gábor Betegh for inviting me to give a talk and to the audience for the vivid discussion.
