Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pattern of the Iliad He wrought on it the Earth and the Sky and the Sea, the never-weary Sun and the full Moon, and all the signs with which the sky is crowned; the Pleiads and Hyads and the Strength of Orion and the she-bear, which they also call the Wain turning round in her own place, but always watching Orion, she alone of all the constellations may not dip into the baths of Ocean. He made on it two Cities of mortal men, very lovely. In one of them were marriages and feasting, and to the gleam of torches in the upper city brides were being fetched out of their chambers. The marriage song rose loud. Boys, dancers, were spinning, and among them utes and harps were sounding, while the women came and stood admiring, each at her house door.

Book The Iliad

Download or read book The Iliad written by Richard Janko and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This, the fourth volume in the six-volume Commentary on The Iliad being prepared under the General Editorship of Professor G.S. Kirk, covers Books 13-16, including the Battle for the Ships, the Deception of Zeus and the Death of Patroklos. Three introductory essays discuss the role of Homer's gods in his poetry; the origins and development of the epic diction; and the transmission of the text, from the bard's lips to our own manuscripts. It is now widely recognised that the first masterpiece of Western literature is an oral poem; Professor Janko's detailed commentary aims to show how this recognition can clarify many linguistic and textual problems, entailing a radical reassessment of the work of Homer's Alexandrian editors. The commentary also explores the poet's subtle creativity in adapting traditional materials, whether formulae, typical scenes, mythology or imagery, so as best to move, inspire and entertain his audience, ancient and modern alike. Discussion of the poem's literary qualities and structure is, where possible, kept separate from that of more technical matters.

Book The Iliad

    Book Details:
  • Author : Bruce Louden
  • Publisher : JHU Press
  • Release : 2006-05-05
  • ISBN : 0801889189
  • Pages : 364 pages

Download or read book The Iliad written by Bruce Louden and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2006-05-05 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extending his distinctive analysis of Homeric epic to the Iliad, Bruce Louden, author of The "Odyssey": Structure, Narration, and Meaning, again presents new approaches to understanding the themes and story of the poem. In this thought-provoking study, he demonstrates how repeated narrative motifs argue for an expanded understanding of the structure of epic poetry. First identifying the "subgenres" of myth within the poem, he then reads these against related mythologies of the Near East, developing a context in which the poem can be more accurately interpreted. Louden begins by focusing on the ways in which the Iliad's three movements correspond with and comment on each other. He offers original interpretations of many episodes, notably in books 3 and 7, and makes new arguments about some well-known controversies (e.g., the duals in book 9), the Iliad's use of parody, the function of theomachy, and the prefiguring of Hektor as a sacrificial victim in books 3 and 6. The second part of the book compares fourteen subgenres of myth in the Iliad to contemporaneous Near Eastern traditions such as those of the Old Testament and of Ugaritic mythology. Louden concludes with an extended comparison of the Homeric Athena and Anat, a West Semitic goddess worshipped by the Phoenicians and Egyptians. Louden's innovative method yields striking new insights into the formation and early literary contexts of Greek epic poetry.

Book The Iliad  A Commentary

Download or read book The Iliad A Commentary written by Geoffrey Stephen Kirk and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1985 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first volume of a projected six-volume Commentary on Homer's Iliad, under the General Editorship of professor G.S. Kirk. Professor Kirk himself is the editor of the present volume, which covers the first four Books of Iliad. It consists of four introductory chapters, dealing in particular with rhythm and formular techniques, followed by the detailed commentary which aims at helping serious readers by attempting to identify and deal with most of the difficulties which might stand in the way of a sensitive and informed response to the poem. The Catalogues in Book 2 recieve especially full treatment. The book does not include a Greek text - important matters pertaining to the text are discussed in the commentary. It is hoped that the volume as a whole will lead scholars to a better understanding of the epic style as well as of many well-known thematic problems on a larger scale. This Commentary will be an essential reference work for all students of Greek literature. Archaeologists and historians will also find that it contains matters of relevance to them.
