  • Eros and Aphrodite on the North Slope of the Acropolis in Athens
    EROS AND APHRODITE ON THE NORTH SLOPE OF THE ACROPOLIS IN ATHENS IN most books on the topography of Athens reference is made to the numerous small niches cut in rock at various points on the North Slope of the Acropolis,' but hitherto only in the case of one group of niches has it been possible to connect them definitely with a known sanctuary. This is the cave of Apollo where most of the niches are found and where some of the votive plaques that once occupied the niches have been discovered. From this cave as far east as the underground ascent into the citadel west of the Ereclitheum the North Slope has been carefully investigated ;2 but the eastern part is less well known. Some of the earlier topographers, however, notably Carl Boetticher,3 called attention to the niches; and in Curtius' and Kaupert's Atlas4 a plan of the North Slope is given with the several groups of niches numbered and described. The results of these investigations are restated in Judeich's Topographie von Athe;n,5 where the statement is made that so far (new edition published 1931) it has not been possible to assign the niches to any definite sanctuary. In view of these facts it seemed unlikely that any new light would be thrown on the subject without excavating, and it was not without surprise that I discovered, while looking at the architectural material built into the north wall of the Acropolis, two inscriptions cut in rock among a large number of votive niches. These inscriptions made certain, what seemed already obvious from the presence of the niches, that an ancient shrine had existed at this place, and furthermore furnished us with the information that the deities worshiped were Eros and Aphrodite.

  • Pindar and Sicilian Nymphs a Healthy Sense of Our Identity
    Pindar and Sicilian Nymphs A healthy sense of our identity – as individuals and as a group – sits upon a scaffold of collective memory. Our all-important sense of ‘belonging’ to a community comes from sharing memories and stories of the past, with those we grew up with, with friends from university, for example, and with fellow members of a broader collective - a town, a state or a country. Current thinking about this ‘social’ memory stresses the importance of localizing it in a material space. (“Who are you?” merges with “Where are you from?”) We anchor our personal and collective memories in a socially specific spatial framework – where we were born, where we went to school etc., what history we inherited. But this contextualization of the self is in trouble. The French historian Pierre Nora, in Lieux de mémoire, a 3-volume work published in 1992, described a phenomenon in France that is familiar to most of us: a historical deracination, the erosion of a common sense of what came before. Human achievements are disembodied now; road signs no longer reinforce a common understanding of the patria. Without a common stock of memories the past is forgotten, supplanted by the bric à brac of the present. So memory has been replaced by commemoration – plaques, monuments, historical sites, theme parks – all serving as entertainment and education, as much for tourists as for natives. Our modern communities are fractured by social mobility, leaving individuals without the comfort of shared stories, songs, and literature that can shape us from a young age as members of a collective.

Dialogue of Genres in Ovid's "Lovesong of Polyphemus" (Metamorphoses 13.719-897) Abstract Among the central critical issues surrounding Ovid's Metamorphoses--indeed, underlying many of this challenging text's unsolved problems--is the question of genre. Is the poem epic or a species of epic (e.g., anti- epic, epic parody, elegized epic, or epicized elegy); a type of Kollektivgedicht, stringing together either a series of examples from some miniature form such as the epyllion, or else sampling now one genre, now another; or is it simply unique, resisting any effort at categorization? Despite the intelligent and detailed discussion that the question has received during the past seventy-five years, it is safe to say that no critical consensus has emerged.
