Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Supernatural in the Tragedies of Euripides: As Illustrated in Prayers, Curses, Oaths, Oracles, Prophecies, Dreams and Visions To my esteemed instructor in Greek and Sanskrit Literature, Professor J. T. Lees, Ph.D., Head of Department of Greek History and Literature in the University of Nebraska, who has aided me especially in the composition of this thesis, I owe a great debt of gratitude. He has suggested the subject, and to his valuable counsel and assistance important corrections and improvements are due. I have further consulted in one way or other nearly all the books and monographs mentioned in the bibliography. Considerable use has been made of the following works: J. Adam: "Religious Teachers of Greece"; C. H. Moore: "The Religious Thought of the Greeks"; C. F. Whitmore: "The Supernatural in Tragedy"; W. Nestle: "Euripides, der Dichter der griechischen Aufklarung"; P. Decharme: "Euripide et l'esprit de son theatre." In quoting from the original I have availed myself of the Teubner text. Deviations from this have been noted where they occur. Excepting some of the fragments the translations are by A. S. Way, in the Loeb Classical Library, Heinemann, 1912.

Download or read book Euripides Alcestis written by Andreas Markantonatos and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2013-10-14 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is an accessible yet in-depth narratological study of Euripides’ Alcestis - the earliest extant play of Euripides and one of the most experimental masterpieces of Greek tragedy, not only standing in place of a satyr-play but also preserving at least some of its typical features. Commencing from the widely-held view, so lamentably ignored within the domain of Classics, that a narratology of drama should be predicated upon the notion of narrative as verbal, as well as visual, rendition of a story, this unique volume contextualizes the play in terms of its reception by the original audience, locating the intricate narrative tropes of the plot in the dynamics of fifth-century Athenian mythology and religion.

Download or read book The Imagination of the Mind in Classical Athens written by Emily Clifford and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-14 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the imaginative processes at work in the artefacts of Classical Athens. When ancient Athenians strove to grasp ‘justice’ or ‘war’ or ‘death’, when they dreamt or deliberated, how did they do it? Did they think about what they were doing? Did they imagine an imagining mind? European histories of the imagination have often begun with thinkers like Plato and Aristotle. By contrast, this volume is premised upon the idea that imaginative activity, and especially efforts to articulate it, can take place in the absence of technical terminology. In exploring an ancient culture of imagination mediated by art and literature, the book scopes out the roots of later, more explicit, theoretical enquiry. Chapters hone in on a range of visual and verbal artefacts from the Classical period. Approaching the topic from different angles – philosophical, historical, philological, literary, and art historical – they also investigate how these artefacts stimulate affective, sensory, meditative – in short, ‘imaginative’ – encounters between imagining bodies and their world. The Imagination of the Mind in Classical Athens offers a ground-breaking reassessment of ‘imagination’ in ancient Greek culture and thought: it will be essential reading for those interested in not only philosophies of mind, but also ancient Greek image, text, and culture more broadly.

Download or read book Haunted Greece and Rome written by Debbie Felton and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-07-22 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stories of ghostly spirits who return to this world to warn of danger, to prophesy, to take revenge, to request proper burial, or to comfort the living fascinated people in ancient times just as they do today. In this innovative, interdisciplinary study, the author combines a modern folkloric perspective with literary analysis of ghost stories from classical antiquity to shed new light on the stories' folk roots. The author begins by examining ancient Greek and Roman beliefs about death and the departed and the various kinds of ghost stories which arose from these beliefs. She then focuses on the longer stories of Plautus, Pliny, and Lucian, which concern haunted houses. Her analysis illuminates the oral and literary transmission and adaptation of folkloric motifs and the development of the ghost story as a literary form. In her concluding chapter, the author also traces the influence of ancient ghost stories on modern ghost story writers, a topic that will interest all readers and scholars of tales of hauntings.
