Quand débute l’Iliade, la guerre de Troie dure depuis vingt ans. Le récit en avait été fait dans une épopée en douze chants, les Chants Cypriens, aujourd’hui perdue, mais dont un sommaire tardif permet de restituer la trame. Cet immense trésor légendaire a fourni aux poètes tragiques d’Athènes une grande partie des sujets de leurs drames. Parmi eux, c’est surtout chez Euripide, grâce à ses pièces conservées et à son théâtre perdu, qu’on peut le mieux se représenter sous quelles formes s’est opérée cette transmutation de l’épopée au théâtre, dans une cité qui n’a cessé de connaître elle aussi les horreurs de la guerre.

For over 2500 years many of the most learned scholars of the Greek language have concerned themselves with the topic of etymology. The most productive source of difficult, even inexplicable, words was Homer’s 28,000 verses of epic poetry. Steve Reece proposes an approach to elucidating the meanings of some of these difficult words that finds its inspiration primarily in Milman Parry’s oral-formulaic theory. He proposes that during the long period of oral transmission acoustic uncertainties, especially regarding word boundaries, were continually occurring: a bard uttered one collocation of words, but his audience thought it heard another. The consequent resegmentation of words and phrases is the probable cause of some of the etymologically inexplicable words in our Homeric texts.
