Download or read book Myth and the Polis written by Dora Carlisky Pozzi and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 1991 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fresh and thought-provoking book deepens our understanding of the dynamic relationship between the creation of myth and the development of the ancient Greek polis, or city-state, during crucial periods in archaic and classical Greece. Examining the diverse texts which crystallized Greek oral tradition, nine chapters by a multidisciplinary group of scholars focus both on the role of the community as the shaper and transmitter of myth and on the function of myth and ritual in the development of political authority in Greek society. Myth and the Polis draws upon current research in such fields such as ancient history, philology, social anthropology, ethnomusicology, comparative literature, psychoanalysis, folklore, and political theory. Taken together, the essays highlight the continuos struggle of Greek archaic and classical communities to keep their myths "true" in spite of the pull of pan-Hellenism. Shedding new light on the beginnings of Western civilization, Myth and the Polis will be of interest to a wide range of readers, including scholars and students of classics, folklore, myth, and ancient religion, politics, and history.

Book Philosophy in Ovid  Ovid as Philosopher

Download or read book Philosophy in Ovid Ovid as Philosopher written by Gareth Williams and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This volume contains sixteen essays on various aspects of Ovid's engagement with philosophical trends and topics. Ovid has long been celebrated for the versatility of his poetic imagination, the diversity of his generic experimentation throughout his long career, and his intimate engagement with the Greco-Roman literary tradition that precedes him; but what of his engagement with the philosophical tradition? Ovid's close familiarity with philosophical ideas and with specific philosophical texts has long been recognized, perhaps most prominently in the Pythagorean, Platonic, Empedoclean, and Lucretian shades that color his Metamorphoses. This philosophical component, however, has often been perceived as a feature subordinate to Ovid's larger literary agenda; and because of the controlling influence conceded to that literary impulse, readings of the philosophical dimension have often focused on the perceived distortion, ironizing, or parodying of philosophical sources and ideas. This book counters this tendency by (i) considering Ovid's seriousness of engagement with, and his possible critique of, the philosophical writings that inform his works; (ii) questioning the feasibility of separating out the categories of the "philosophical" and the "literary" in the first place; (iii) exploring the ways in which Ovid may offer unusual, controversial, or provocative reactions to received philosophical ideas; and (iv) investigating the case to be made for viewing the Ovidian corpus not just as a body of writings that are often philosophically inflected, but also as texts that may themselves be read as philosophically adventurous and experimental"--

Download or read book Mythes et r alit s transatlantiques written by Christian Lerat and published by [Talence, France] : Éditions de la Maison des sciences de l'homme d'Aquitaine. This book was released on 1997 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les auteurs de l'ouvrage, issu d'une réflexion collective, s'attachent à rendre compte du dynamisme des échanges en même temps que de la plasticité des écarts entre les deux piliers de la culture transatlantique. Depuis la Renaissance, la circulation entre Ancien et Nouveau Mondes a été globalement porteuse d'un enrichissement décisif de la pensée et, dans l'optique littéraire qui est ici retenue, de l'imaginaire. Pour autant, ces processus intellectuels n'ont pu empêcher quelques-uns des plus grands traumatismes de l'histoire dont plusieurs œuvres conservent la trace. Ils n'ont pas empêché non plus que s'insinue le désenchantement, le choc des réalités succédant aux espoirs suscités par certains mythes mutuellement entretenus.
