Abstract

En général l’agriculture stagna dans la médiocrité jusque vers 1850. Dans le Nord au contraire le Moyen Age vit naître l’agriculture flamande. Ce fut une polyculture aux assolements complexes faisant une place de plus en plus grande à l’avoine (dès l’an Mil), aux fourrages (vers 1150), et à des plantes jusque-là confinées dans les courtils, textiles, tinctoriales et oléagineuses (vers 1400). Ce fut aussi une agriculture intensive avec des chevaux de plus en plus puissants et bien harnachés, avec la suppression progressive des jachères, de nombreux labours, le bêchage parfois, beaucoup de fumiers et des rendements somptueux, tant à la surface qu’à la semence. Ce fut enfin une culture spéculative, ouverte sur le commerce, toujours à l’affût du progrès, dans un climat capitaliste et dans la plus totale liberté. Les initiateurs en furent les petits paysans, car l’agriculture flamande ne fut que l’extension aux pleins champs de la culture des courtils.

Abstract

Dans une perspective diachronique et pluridisciplinaire, les contributions de ce volume se proposent d'explorer les différentes formes d’appropriation, d’adaptation ou de détournement de la mythologie, qui ont abouti d’un côté à des lectures originales des fables anciennes, de l’autre à un nouveau statut du mythe, voire à des modèles mythologiques différents. Dès l'Antiquité, la mise à distance du mythe a été une source de créativité, renouvelant les formes d’écriture et conduisant à une réorganisation du patrimoine culturel mythologique. En relation avec la polémique soulevée par Platon, les commentateurs néoplatoniciens et les mythographes de l’Antiquité tardive ont engagé un véritable débat sur le bon usage des mythes, sur lequel se sont greffés, au Moyen Âge, des discours supplémentaires, par le biais de la traduction, de la glose et de la réécriture. La réflexion médiévale sur le mythe a entraîné une adaptation de la matière mythologique ancienne, voire un détournement de son sens premier lorsque les récits mythiques païens ont été mis au service des valeurs courtoises et de la Révélation. Le discours moderne sur le mythe s’est enrichi, lui, d’autres instruments (la psychanalyse littéraire, la mythocritique…) et a permis d’avancer des interprétations inédites de l’héritage mythologique, ancien et médiéval, ainsi que de nourrir les discussions sur la nature du mythe.

Abstract

In this, the first modern study of the ancient fairytale, Graham Anderson asks whether the familiar children's fairytale of today existed in the ancient world. He examines texts from the classical period and finds many stories which resemble those we know today, including:* a Jewish Egyptian Cinderella* a Snow White whose enemy is the goddess Artemis* a Pied Piper at Troy.He puts forward many previously unsuspected candidates as classical variants of the modern fairytale and argues that the degree of violence and cruelty in the ancient tales means they must have been meant for

Abstract

In this groundbreaking work, Patrice D. Rankine asserts that the classics need not be a mark of Eurocentrism, as they have long been considered. Instead, the classical tradition can be part of a self-conscious, prideful approach to African American culture, esthetics, and identity. Ulysses in Black demonstrates that, similar to their white counterparts, African American authors have been students of classical languages, literature, and mythologies by such writers as Homer, Euripides, and Seneca.

Abstract

"This volume aims to broaden our understanding of the related genres of parables, fables, and similes in the Graeco-Roman world. These genres, which make use of narrative analogy, appear in early Christian and ancient Jewish literatures and in various Graeco-Roman sources. However, despite the fact that these texts were part of the wider cultural context of Graeco-Roman antiquity, they have not yet been thoroughly studied in relation to each other. The present volume brings together contributions on a range of Graeco-Roman, Jewish, and Christian sources, so as to contribute to the study of parables, fables, and similes across disciplinary boundaries. The contributions highlight the fluid boundaries between these different genres, but also demonstrate how their adoption and adaption in different literary works give expression to the distinct identities of the composers."--

Abstract

Readers new to ancient epic are hampered in two ways: they do not know the ancient languages, and they are unfamiliar with the ancient world. This survey addresses the needs of these readers by offering guidance through the major classical writers of epic: it begins with Homer and concludes with an overview of the development of late ancient epic and of the interface between the epic and the novel.

Abstract

This book explores Callimachus' allusive practice in his Aetia prologue and Hymns 4, 5, and 6, and in Ovid's Metamorphoses . The study includes an overview of modern approaches to poetic allusion, a close (re-)examination of the lexical allusions in the Aetia's and Metamorphoses' prologues, extensive examinations of allusive techniques within selections of these works, the poets' use of 'signposting' and 'authorization' techniques, and the relationship between allusion and genre.

Abstract

Ovid's Heroides, a catalogue of letters by women who have been deserted, has too frequently been examined as merely a lament. In a new departure, this book portrays the women of the Heroides as a community of authors. Combining close readings of the texts and their mythological backgrounds with critical methods, the book argues that the points of similarity between the different letters of the Heroides, so often derided by modern critics, represent a brilliant exploitation of intratextuality, in which the Ovidian heroine self-consciously fashions herself as an alluding author influenced by what she has read within the Heroides. Far from being naive and impotent victims, therefore, the heroines are remarkably astute, if not always successful, at adapting textual strategies that they perceive as useful for attaining their own ends. With this new approach Professor Fulkerson shows that the Heroides articulate a fictional poetic, mirroring contemporary practices of poetic composition.
