Download or read book Kallimachos written by Rudolf Blum and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 2011-06-01 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The famous library of Alexandria, founded around 295 BCE by Ptolemaios I, housed the greatest collection of texts in the ancient world and was a fertile site of Hellenistic scholarship. Rudolf Blum’s landmark study, originally published in German in 1977, argues that Kallimachos of Kyrene was not only the second director of the Alexandrian library but also the inventor of two essential scholarly tools still in use to this day: the library catalog and the “biobibliographical” reference work. Kallimachos expanded the library’s inventory lists into volumes called the Pinakes, which extensively described and categorized each work and became in effect a Greek national bibliography and the source and paradigm for most later bibliographic lists of Greek literature. Though the Pinakes have not survived, Blum attempts a detailed reconstruction of Kallimachos’s inventories and catalogs based on a careful analysis of surviving sources, which are presented here in full translation.

Download or read book Hymnic Narrative and the Narratology of Greek Hymns written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-08-11 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ancient Greek hymns traditionally include a narrative section describing episodes from the hymned deity’s life. These narratives developed in parallel with epic and other narrative genres, and their study provides a different perspective on ancient Greek narrative. Within the hymn genre, the place and function of the narrative section changed over time and with different kinds of hymn (literary or cultic; religious, philosophical or magical). Hymnic Narrative and the Narratology of Greek Hymns traces developments in narrative in the hymn genre from the Homeric Hymns via Hellenistic and Imperial hymns to those in the Orphic tradition and in magical papyri, analysing them in narratological terms in order to place them in the wider context of ancient Greek narrative literature.

Download or read book Pieces of Me written by Jennifer Wherrett and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-12-05 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pieces of Me is a collection of short stories, poems and verse presented under eight themes: Beauty, Eternal Essence, Dreams, Perfection, Destiny, Reflection, Reality and Higher Dimensionality. The first four themes relate to our connection with the physical world and, in particular, our relationships within it. The last four themes take us beyond the physical realm by challenging us to consider the relationship we have with our Selves, our own Higher Dimensionality. Because, you see, Rachel, love is the key that unlocks us and brings us to our Selves. I mean real love, not the worlds version of it, for real love is a reflection of being and this world knows only how not to be . . . . To face the truth of our own reflection we must be ready and to be ready we must know our own worth. Like the Stopper in the Vial (6th story) Active conscious creation . . . when our hearts and minds are aligned we imagine what we create and we create what we imagine. The Traveller and the Book (7th story)
