In these ceremonies, women and inen expressec joy in the beauty and abundance of nature, especially the bountiful harvest in personal love, sexuality and procreation; and in the rebirth of the humail spirit, even through suffering and death. Cicero wrote of these rites: “Wc have been given a reason not only to live in joy, but also to die with bettei hope. ”2 The Mother Earth religion ceIebrated her children’s birth, enjoyment of life and loving return to her in death. The Earth both nourished the living and welcomed back into her body the dead.

  • Untranslatability and the Chorus in Virginia Woolf and H.D
    Untranslatability and the Chorus in Virginia Woolf and H.D. Within reception studies, there has been a growing interest in modernist responses to Hellenism (Hooley 2001; Rosenblitt 2016; Prins 2017; Worman 2018). Critical to the transmission and adaptation of Greek texts during this period were women of classical letters. What drew them to the translation and adaptation of the ancient Greek language was, uniquely, the promise of “an encounter with something untranslatable” (Prins 2017: 31). Focusing on the work of Virginia Woolf and H.D. (Hilda Doolittle), this paper argues that the experience of linguistic estrangement encountered in the act of translating Greek specifically involved the tragic chorus. The resistance of the choral form to translation offered Woolf and H.D. the freedom to adapt it to their own literary experiments, allowing them to fashion a new feminist aesthetic that challenged the masculine classical heritage. Woolf and H.D. derived their ideas of the Greek chorus from two main sources: the work of the first British female classicist, Jane Ellen Harrison, and contemporary modernist translation theory. Woolf was a personal acquaintance of Harrison and attended her public lectures (Mills 2014: 8), while H.D. knew of her ideas indirectly through Gilbert Murray (Gregory 1997: 123-4). They drew on Harrison’s fascination with the chorus as a “queer anomaly” that nonetheless functioned as “the centre and kernel and starting-point of the drama” (Harrison 1913: 123). Modernist poets like Ezra Pound and Richard Aldington also had a strong interest in the choral ode, erroneously viewing it as a form of vers libre because of its absence of rhyme, spare language, traditional meters, and short lines (Gregory 1997: 140; Prins 2017: 180-201).

Patriarchy, Harrison wrote, ‘would worshippers fain dominate all things, would invade even the ancient pre- rogative of the mother, the right to rear the child she bore … Robert Bowie Johnson, Jr [it] usurps the function of the mother … .’2 As an example of this male usurpation, she cited the birth of Athena who Each year, millions of young people in our high emerged full-grown from her father, Zeus.2 As one who takes schools, colleges, and universities are attracted to the book of Genesis seriously, I have no difficulty in seeing the study of mythology.

  • Jane Ellen Harrison and the Greek Chorus
    Jane Ellen Harrison and the Greek Chorus The Greek chorus is having a moment. The surge of interest among classicists in choral performance, referred to as ‘chorality’, has restored to the chorus to center stage, starting with the landmark work of Calame, Les choeurs du jeunes filles en grèce archaïque (1977) and followed more recently by the volumes of Gagné and Hopman (2013) and Billings, Budelmann, and Macintosh 2014, among others. But the chorus generated a similar amount of attention just over a hundred years ago, both among classical scholars and popular imagination. A pivotal figure in the reception of the Greek chorus during this period was the first female classical scholar, Jane Ellen Harrison (1850-1928). This paper examines Harrison’s ideas about the chorus and then discusses briefly their influence on the contemporary writers H.D. (1886-1961), Virginia Woolf (1882-1941), and the dancer Isadora Duncan (1877-1927). The demise of the chorus as a cultural and literary form in the Roman era contributed to its post-classical status as an enigmatic anomaly, a ‘problem’ debated and theorized by German idealist thinkers (Billings 2013). Almost two centuries later, the Greek chorus had become surprisingly popular in a variety of contexts, including scholarly debates about the origin of Greek tragedy and the layout of the ancient theater, productions of Greek tragedy in colleges and on the professional stage, modernist poetry, and even modern dance. This ‘rebirth’ of the chorus can be attributed in part to Nietzsche’s Birth of Tragedy published in 1872, which singled out the chorus for its “astonishing significance” (Birth 129).

JANE ELLEN HARRISON, 1850-1928 "THE Year Spirit, born young again every spring, has entered into your soul, and taught us all alike to feel ourselves the companions and sharers of your youthful­ ness." So wrote WaIter Leaf in the address of farewell sent to Jane Harrison by various friends when she left Cambridge for Paris. And in re-reading it, there come to my mind his other words of farewell, the verses in his book on Troy addressed to the memory of three friends, three great Cambridge scholars, MaitIand, Butcher, and Verrall: XaLp€T€ Kav cp8LfJ.€VOL~ K€cpaAal CPLAaL' ou yap IT' "Ap'1~ ' \ r \ '(.:j' ,- X atp€LV TOV~ ~WOV~ OfJPLfJ.O€pyO~ €Cf •••• EilO€T€ V~OVfJ.OJJ i17rvov.
