The word Acheron of uncertain etymology. In the Homeric poems, Acheron Acheron was described as a river of Hadesinto which Cocytus and Acheron both flowed. The Roman Acheron Virgil called it the principal river of Tartarusfrom which the Styx and Cocytus both sprang. The Suda describes the river as "a place of healing, not a place of punishment, cleansing and purging the sins of humans".

He claimed that Acheron flowed in Acheron opposite direction from Oceanus beneath the earth Acheron desert places. The Acheron is also occasionally used Acheron a synecdoche for Hades itself. Virgil mentions Acheron with the other infernal rivers in his description Acheron the underworld in Book VI of the Aeneid. In Dante 's Inferno Acheron, the Acheron river forms the border of Hell. Following Greek mythology, Acheron ferries souls across this river to Hell. Those who were neutral in life sit on the banks.

    Bacchylides 17: Singing and Usurping the Paean Maria Pavlou

    Bacchylides 17: Singing and Usurping the Paean Maria Pavlou ACCHYLIDES 17, a Cean commission performed on Delos, has been the subject of extensive study and is Bmuch admired for its narrative artistry, elegance, and excellence. The ode was classified as a dithyramb by the Alex- andrians, but the Du-Stil address to Apollo in the closing lines renders this classification problematic and has rather baffled scholars. The solution to the thorny issue of the ode’s generic taxonomy is not yet conclusive, and the dilemma paean/ dithyramb is still alive.1 In fact, scholars now are more inclined to place the poem somewhere in the middle, on the premise that in antiquity the boundaries between dithyramb and paean were not so clear-cut as we tend to believe.2 Even though I am 1 Paean: R.

Tessmer: Myth, Ritual, and the Labyrinth of King Minos Myth, Ritual, and the Labyrinth of King Minos Nicole Tessmer St. Louis University According to ancient mythology, King Minos built a perplexing labyrinth to house the Minotaur, a monstrous creature to which his wife had given birth. Each year, the myth states, seven girls and seven boys were chosen to enter the labyrinth as tributes to become food for the Minotaur.1 It was not until Theseus entered the labyrinth, and killed the Minotaur that it could be considered a place to leave your childhood behind. Once inside, they wrestled with their demons, experienced a rebirth, and finally, emerged as adults ready to take their places in society. The myth of the labyrinth can thus be understood as a rite of passage or a coming of age ritual in ancient Greece.

    Salmacis, Hermaphrodite, and the Inversion of Gender: Allegorical Interpretations and Pictorial Representations of an Ovidian Myth, Ca

    Chapter 3 Salmacis, Hermaphrodite, and the Inversion of Gender: Allegorical Interpretations and Pictorial Representations of an Ovidian Myth, ca. 1300–1770 Karl Enenkel Introduction: The Ovidian Myth and Its Gender Narrative Although from antiquity on, the concept of the nymph has included a great variety of minor deities connected with different local cults and various habi- tats, all nymphs seem to have in common that they were imagined as young, beautiful, gracious girls, and that they were thought to behave in a female and feminine way; if attached to Diana, they were believed to act as virgins. The myth of Salmacis, however, refers to a different kind of nymph: a nymph that excels in the inversion of “normal” gendered behaviour, and that was thought to have caused the disturbing bodily phenomenon of Hermaphroditism.1 The myth as it was depicted and interpreted in the early modern period is entirely based on a literary invention by Ovid, in his Metamorphoses (IV, 288–388).2 Ovid’s highly imaginative story, however, does not give an account 1 On the physical and medical phenomenon of Hermaphroditism in Greco-Roman antiquity and in the Renaissance (which in itself will not be the topic of this contribution) cf., inter alia, Brisson L., Sexual Ambivalence: Androgyny and Hermaphroditism in Graeco-Roman Antiquity, transl.

Dionysus was the only Olympian god to have a mortal parent. He was the god of fertility, wine and the arts. His nature reflected the duality of wine: he gave joy and divine ecstasy, or brutal and blinding rage. He and his followers could not be contained by bonds. One would imagine that being the god of “good times” could be a pretty easy and happy existence. Unfortunately, this just doesn’t happen in the world of Greek mythology. Dionysus is called “twice born.” His mother, Semele, was seduced by a Greek god, but Semele did not know which god was her lover. Fully aware of her husband’s infidelity, the jealous Hera went to Semele in disguise and convinced her to see her god lover in his true form.

These motifs, such as the realm of Hades and its denizens, the rivers of the underworld, the paradise of the blessed dead, and the places of punishment for the wicked, are developed and transformed through all their uses throughout the ages, depending upon the aims of the author or artist depicting the underworld. Some sources explore the relation of the world of the living to that of the dead through descriptions of the location of the underworld and the difficulties of entering it. By contrast, discussions of the regions within the underworld and existence therein often relate to ideas of afterlife as a continuation of or compensation for life in the world above.

    La Commedia in palcoscenico. Appunti su una ricerca da fare Dante e l’arte 1, 2014 67-84 La Commedia in palcoscenico. Appunti su una ricerca da fare Marzia Pieri Università di Siena [email protected] Riassunto Da circa due secoli la Divina Commedia è fatta oggetto, in Italia, di letture teatralizzate e di vere e proprie riduzioni drammaturgiche, che hanno raggiunto vaste masse di spet- tatori, e la cui popolarità non accenna ancora oggi ad esaurirsi. Il fenomeno delle “dan- tate” – che non conosce equivalenti in altre culture europee – accompagna l’avventura risorgimentale per la conquista dell’indipendenza, ed è legato alla tradizione italiana del grande mattatore romantico: a partire da Gustavo Modena (l’attore mazziniano che intende portare Dante al popolo come veicolo di emancipazione politica), i grandi guitti italiani romantici, naturalistici e poi novecenteschi (di avanguardia o di “tradizione”) hanno continuato a recitare il poema, costruendo, per via performativa, una peculiare ecdotica, ancora tutta da studiare. Le celebrazioni dantesche del centenario del 1865, in una Firenze appena consacrata capitale del Regno d’Italia, segnano un acme di questa fortuna festiva e teatrale. Parole chiave: Divina Commedia, Risorgimento, Recital, Gustavo Modena, Roberto Benigni, Firenze capitale, cinema muto. Abstract For the last two centuries in Italy, the Divine Comedy has been made subject of dramati- zed readings and proper dramatic reductions that have reached the bulk of the audience, and whose popularity doesn’t yet show any sign of exhaustion. The phenomenon of the ‘dantate’ – with no equivalent in other European cultures – accompanies the risorgimen- tale adventure for the sake of gaining independence.

    ARISTOPHANES' FROGS 172 F. by CW DEARDEN the Problem

    WHAT HAPPENED TO THE DONKEY? ARISTOPHANES' FROGS 172 f. BY C. W. DEARDEN The problem of the production of Charon's boat 1) is one of the perennial chestnuts of Aristophanic study, yet one that theore- tically it ought to be fairly easy to solve, for, as Arnott has remark- ed 2), the movements of the characters in the early scenes of the Frogs can be plotted with considerable accuracy and this limits in certain respects the possibilities open to the producer. Dionysus and Xanthias open the play as with donkey and baggage they appear on their way to visit Heracles and then the Underworld. The conclusion that they enter through a parodos and journey across the orchestra seems unavoidable for no starting point is indicated for their journey and the donkey would pose problems elsewhere. At line 35 therefore, when Xanthias dismounts, the two climb onto the stage and approach Heracles' door. A conversation with Heracles occupies the next 130 lines before the two travellers bid him adieu and turn back to the orchestra to continue their journey. Xanthias bidden once more to pick up the baggage, pro- duces his customary complaint, suggests that Dionysus might consider hiring a corpse to take the luggage to Hades (167) and points out that one is being carried in. There is no indication of where the corpse comes from and again it seems reasonable to assume that it is simply carried in through one parodos across the orchestra and out through the other; Dionysus and Xanthias them- 1) For the purposes of this article the conclusions of T.B.L.
