    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-19449-5 - Homer between History and Fiction in Imperial Greek Literature Lawrence Kim Excerpt More information chapter 1 Introduction Imperial Homer, history, and fiction Near the beginning of his treatise Against Celsus, the third-century Christian scholar Origen conveys the difficulty of his project, a defense of the Gospels’ account of Jesus, by an analogy to Greek example: Before we begin the defence [of Jesus], we must say that an attempt to con- firm almost any story as having happened, even if it is true (psan ¬stor©an, kn lhqv § ...Þv gegenhmnhn), and to produce complete certainty about it, is one of the most difficult tasks and in some cases is impossible. Suppose, for example, that someone says the Trojan War never happened (m gegonnai), in particular because it is bound up with the impossible story (di t¼ dÅ- naton prospeplcqai l»gon) about a certain Achilles having had Thetis, a sea-goddess,ashismother...Howcouldwedefend[thehistoricityoftheTro- jan War] (kataskeusaimen), especially as we are embarrassed by the invention (Ëp¼ toÓ ...plsmatov) which for some unknown reason is woven alongside the opinion, which everybody believes, that there really was (perª toÓ lhqäv gegonnai) a war in Troy between the Greeks and the Trojans?1 It is probably no accident that Origen selects the Trojan War to illustrate the difficulty of substantiating “true” stories as fact. The war is poised at the chronological end of the ‘mythological’ era and the beginning of Greek history, and while the legends surrounding it are more human-centered and less fantastic than those concerning previous heroic generations, they still feature the divine apparatus and enough “invention” or “fiction” (plsma) to render problematic any simple correspondence to historical reality.2 The anxiety engendered by these problems is well expressed by Origen; like nearly all ancient authors he was caught in an uneasy negotiation between his firm belief in the reality of the Trojan War and a suspicion that the stories told about it were not completely accurate.

    Brolly. Journal of Social Sciences 1 (2) 2018 LIVING IN IRON, DRESSED IN BRONZE: METAL FORMULAS AND THE CHRONOLOGY OF AGES1 Françoise Létoublon UFR LLASIC University Grenoble-Alpes, France [email protected] Abstract. Names of important metals such as gold, silver, iron, and bronze occur many times in the Homeric Epics. We intend to look at them within the framework of oral poetry, with the purpose to determine if they form a more or less coherent set of “formulas”, in the sense defined by Milman Parry and the Oral Poetry Theory2, and to test a possible link with the stages of the evolution of humankind. Though several specialists criticized some excess in Parry’s and Lord’s definitions of the formula, we deem the theory still valuable in its great lines and feel no need to discuss it for the present study3. The frequent use of bronze in epical formulas for arms, while the actual heroes fight their battles with iron equipment, and the emphasis of gold in the descriptions of wealth may reflect a deep-seated linguistic memory within the archaic mindset of the Ages of Mankind. With Homer’s language as our best witness, metal formulas testify to the importance of the tradition of the Ages of Mankind in understanding the thought patterns and value-systems, as well as some linguistic usages of the Homeric Epics. Keywords: oral poetry, the Myth of Ages, metals, gold, bronze, iron, metaphors, anthropology We shall here study the possible coherence or opposition between linguistic and literary artefacts in Homer and Hesiod on one hand, and archaeological or historical data on the other.
  • Appeal and Value in the Homeric Epics from the Archaic Through the Classical Period

    Appeal and Value in the Homeric Epics from the Archaic Through the Classical Period

    HEROES AT THE GATES: APPEAL AND VALUE IN THE HOMERIC EPICS FROM THE ARCHAIC THROUGH THE CLASSICAL PERIOD A thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTERS IN CLASSICAL CIVILISATIONS of RHODES UNIVERSITY by PETA ANN FOX April 2011 ABSTRACT This thesis raises and explores questions concerning the popularity of the Homeric poems in ancient Greece. It asks why the Iliad and Odyssey held such continuing appeal among the Greeks of the Archaic and Classical age. Cultural products such as poetry cannot be separated from the sociopolitical conditions in which and for which they were originally composed and received. Working on the basis that the extent of Homer’s appeal was inspired and sustained by the peculiar and determining historical circumstances, I set out to explore the relation of the social, political and ethical conditions and values of Archaic and Classical Greece to those portrayed in the Homeric poems. The Greeks, at the time during which Homer was composing his poems, had begun to establish a new form of social organisation: the polis. By examining historical, literary and philosophical texts from the Archaic and Classical age, I explore the manner in which Greek society attempted to reorganise and reconstitute itself in a different way, developing original modes of social and political activity which the new needs and goals of their new social reality demanded. I then turn to examine Homer’s treatment of and response to this social context, and explore the various ways in which Homer was able to reinterpret and reinvent the inherited stories of adventure and warfare in order to compose poetry that not only looks back to the highly centralised and bureaucratic society of the Mycenaean world, but also looks forward, insistently so, to the urban reality of the present.

    Klaus-Peter Koch Kirchenmusik in Magdeburg. Die Jahrzehnte Vor Dem Ersten Weltkrieg

    Klaus-Peter Koch Kirchenmusik in Magdeburg. Die Jahrzehnte vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg Vor Ausbruch des Ersten Weltkriegs hatte sich Magdeburg (im Jahre 805 erstmals erw¨ahnt) zu einem der wichtigsten Industrie- zentren Mitteldeutschlands, besonders hinsichtlich des Maschi- nenbaus, entwickelt. Unter anderem spiegelte sich das in den Be- v¨olkerungszahlen wider. Z¨ahlte man 1871 noch 84 000 Einwoh- ner, so stieg die Einwohnerzahl zwanzig Jahre sp¨ater, 1890, auf 202 000 und weitere zwanzig Jahre sp¨ater, 1910, auf 280 000 Ein- wohner. Dies war nicht nur der Eingemeindung westlicher und n¨ordlicher, besonders aber sudlic¨ her Vororte geschuldet, sondern vor allem Ergebnis des wirtschaftlichen Aufschwungs, wodurch viele Menschen vom l¨andlichen Umland in die Stadt zogen. Die Zeit Magdeburgs als preußische Festungsstadt ging um 1905 zu Ende, die Festungsanlagen wurden geschliffen, womit zugleich Platz fur¨ neue Geb¨aude in der Innenstadt und die Erweiterung der Stadtgrenzen gegeben wurde. Nunmehr begann eine Zeit der Entwicklung Magdeburgs zur Großstadt. Magdeburg galt im Mittelalter als eine Stadt der Kirchen. Al- lein in der Altstadt gab es 19 Kirchen und 50 Kapellen, von der Elbe aus gesehen eine beeindruckende Skyline. Aufgrund mehr- facher Br¨ande, Verwustungen¨ und Zerst¨orungen (besonders seien die Eroberung durch Tilly und der Stadtbrand am 10. (20.) Mai 1631 im Dreißigj¨ahrigen Krieg und die Bombardierung am 16. Ja- nuar 1945 durch angloamerikanische Flugzeuge genannt) existie- ren heute davon noch 6 Kirchen und 1 Kapelle. Es sind dies der Dom (aufgrund der Domfreiheit im Eigentlichen nicht zur Alt- stadt geh¨orend), der in seiner heutigen Gestalt zwischen 1209 und 1520 entstand und seit 1567 evangelisch ist, des Weiteren St.
