We have then the poet's authority, conveyed perhaps with unusual clearness (but not to my mind much more clearly than, for example, in the Ion), that 'Athena', and if 'Athena', if the national goddess, then a fortiori the anthropomorphic and legendary theology in general, is to be discarded from the mind when we read the Iphigenia; that no such beings as the gods of tradition enter into the hypothesis about life and the world upon which his story proceeds. Nor are there wanting other indications to the same effect in the body of the play. The most remarkable perhaps is the well-known passage, brilliant with poetry and wit, where the fair Greek youths, Orestes and Pylades, sitting by the shore, are taken by some of the natives for gods.1 "In a cavernous breach, cleft by the strong rush of the waves, which gatherers of sea-purple use for shelter, one of our herdsmen saw two youths, and coming back on tip-toe, as one steps a ford, said 'Beware! There are gods here: yonder they sit'. And at the sight one of us, a man of piety, lifted up his hands and prayed: 'O son of the sea's Leucothea, protector of ships, our lord Palaemon, be gracious unto us, if these that sit on the beach be perchance the Twins of Zeus, or darlings of Nereus, sire of that fair band of fifty nymphs'. Whereupon another, an insolent fellow, disorderly and rash, laughed at the prayer, and said they were wrecked seamen, who had got into the cave for fear of our custom, when they were told that here the stranger is used for a sacrifice. The more part of us thought him right, and we resolved to capture for the goddess the victims that our wont awards her." Now few or none would suppose that the author here did not see, what the imaginary narrator is supposed too dull and...

Download or read book Rationalist Criticism of Greek Tragedy written by James E. Ford and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2005 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Literary critical revolutions-radical shifts in interpretation and evaluation of literary works and their authors-are among the most interesting of cultural phenomena. In order to gain greater understanding of the mechanisms of all critical revolutions, Rationalist Criticism in Greek Tragedy examines the late nineteenth-century 'rehabilitation' of Euripides. Some of the factors which contributed to the Euripidean revolution are well known, but one which is not-one which has been generally forgotten, when it has not actually been denied-is the role of Rationalist Criticism. Rationalist Criticism, founded and dominated by infamous Cambridge University Classicist and English scholar A. W. Verrall, was generally deprecated by mainstream classicists when it first appeared, and those who happen to come upon it today tend to treat it dismissively-a tendency the great classicist Eduard Fraenkel thought 'should be strongly resisted.' The influence of Rationalist Criticism-inside and outside of classical studies-has been much greater than has been generally supposed. James E. Ford makes the case for the larger significance of what Verrall and the Rationalist Critics were doing within the history not just of Euripidean criticism but of literary studies generally. Ford reads the rationalists on their own terms, drawing on the disciplines of the history of scholarship and the history and theory of literary criticism making this study unique. It should appeal to anyone interested in intellectual history, especially instances of significant intellectual changes (a la Kuhnian revolutions), and, especially, changes in the interpretation and evaluation of authors and their works. The work should be of specific interest to classicists, academic historians, and critical theorists.

Download or read book Euripides written by Isabelle Torrance and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-01-30 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sophocles, Aeschylus and Euripides are often described as the greatest tragedians of the ancient world. Of these three pivotal founders of modern drama, Euripides is characterized as the interloper and the innovator: the man who put tragic verse into the mouths of slaves, women and the socially inferior in order to address vital social issues such as sex, class and gender relations. It is perhaps little wonder that his work should find such resonance in the modern day. In this concise introduction, Isabelle Torrance engages with the thematic, cultural and scholarly difficulties that surround his plays to demonstrate why Euripides remains a figure of perennial relevance. Addressing here issues of social context, performance theory, fifth-century philosophy and religion, textual criticism and reception, the author presents an astute and attractively-written guide to the Euripidean corpus – from the widely read and celebrated Medea to the lesser-known and deeply ambiguous Alcestis.
