Pan, since the pipe that was invented by him was seen to be pleasing by the nymphs, was ready to challenge Apollo in a contest, with Tmolus the god of the mountain being ordered as judge. After the verdict brought in favour of Apollo had truly pleased everyone, only Midas, being led by his natural stupidity, disapproved of it as if it were an injustice. Wherefore Apollo, being angry, turned his ears into ass’ ears, by which his stupidity would be shown.’ Renaissance Mythographic Readings Apollo is understood to represent harmonious proportion, properly understood and controlled by reason Pan is equated with Marsyas and understood as hotheaded, ignorant, bestial and lusty This story and that of the ‘Midas touch’ both exemplify Midas’ gormless stare and slumped Midas’ barber here whispers the secret of the king’s Apollo’s back displays his heroic posture contrast with Minerva’s Midas’ poor judgement, a result of his ‘natural stupidity’ embarrassing ears into a hole in the ground, but the musculature, mirroring the shape of alert and elegant pose and her his lira da braccio, whilst in contrast In the various attempts to re-create the ‘Calumny of Apel- reeds growing there spread it abroad when the military dress; unlike Midas, wind gave them voice. the line of the upright plant obscur- Minerva’s judgement is informed by les’, Midas’ ass’s ears become the portals through which ing Marsyas’ genitals is continued in reason.

Conclusions The concept of musical judgement was central to Italian elite musical culture in the years around 1500, because it allowed the operation of musical taste to be configured as natural, rational, and moral. The story of the Judgement of Midas offered a way to represent allegorically the operation of taste judgements in music which was very open to moral readings. .

  • Heracles and Philo of Alexandria: the Son of Zeus Between Torah and Philosophy, Empire and Stage
    Chapter 8 Heracles and Philo of Alexandria: The Son of Zeus between Torah and Philosophy, Empire and Stage Courtney J. P. Friesen With few competitors, Heracles was one of the most popular and widely re- vered heroes of Greco-Roman antiquity. Though occupying a marginal place in the Homeric epics, he developed in complex directions within archaic Greek poetry, and in Classical Athens became a favorite protagonist among play- wrights, both of tragedy and comedy. From a famed monster-killer, to the trou- bled murderer of his own children, to the comic buffoon of prolific appetites, Heracles remained fixed in the imagination of ancient Greeks and Romans. Moreover, the son of Zeus was claimed as an ancestor for notable statesmen connected to both Alexandria and Rome (including Philip and Alexander of Macedon, the Ptolemies, and Mark Antony), and he was honored at cultic sites around the Mediterranean, including at the heart of the Roman Empire itself on the Ara Maxima. Jews living around the Greek and Roman world will inevitably have encoun- tered the mythologies and cults of Heracles in various forms. For instance, some Jewish writers, reflecting on this hero in light of their own traditions, made attempts to integrate him within the context of biblical genealogies.1 In addition, a natural correlation existed between Samson and Heracles, and al- ready in antiquity their extraordinary physical might was seen as comparable (Eusebius, PE 10.9.7; Augustine, Civ. 18.19).2 Recently, René Bloch has provided a useful survey of references to Heracles in the writings of Josephus in conjunc- tion with the Jewish historian’s wider engagement with Greek mythology.3 In 1 Cleomedus Malchus has Heracles marry the granddaughter of Abraham (Josephus, AJ 1.240–41); and according to unspecified sources, Heracles was the father of Melchizedek (Epiphanius, Pan.

  • Hesiod Theogony.Pdf
    Hesiod (8th or 7th c. BC, composed in Greek) The Homeric epics, the Iliad and the Odyssey, are probably slightly earlier than Hesiod’s two surviving poems, the Works and Days and the Theogony. Yet in many ways Hesiod is the more important author for the study of Greek mythology. While Homer treats cer- tain aspects of the saga of the Trojan War, he makes no attempt at treating myth more generally. He often includes short digressions and tantalizes us with hints of a broader tra- dition, but much of this remains obscure. Hesiod, by contrast, sought in his Theogony to give a connected account of the creation of the universe. For the study of myth he is im- portant precisely because his is the oldest surviving attempt to treat systematically the mythical tradition from the first gods down to the great heroes. Also unlike the legendary Homer, Hesiod is for us an historical figure and a real per- sonality. His Works and Days contains a great deal of autobiographical information, in- cluding his birthplace (Ascra in Boiotia), where his father had come from (Cyme in Asia Minor), and the name of his brother (Perses), with whom he had a dispute that was the inspiration for composing the Works and Days. His exact date cannot be determined with precision, but there is general agreement that he lived in the 8th century or perhaps the early 7th century BC. His life, therefore, was approximately contemporaneous with the beginning of alphabetic writing in the Greek world. Although we do not know whether Hesiod himself employed this new invention in composing his poems, we can be certain that it was soon used to record and pass them on.

His use of alle‐ gory in depicting this theme is an informative example of the Stephen S. Hilliard Elizabethan use of the allegorical mode for dramatic purposes. Midas is perhaps “a model of elegant speech and a mirror of John Lyly’s Midas is structured in terms of traditional allegorizations of manners,” to use M. C.
