Abstract

Literarische Anspielungen im Frieden des Aristophanes sind zwar bereits seit der Antike Gegenstand der Forschung, wurden aber noch nie systematisch untersucht. Neben einer Detailanalyse aller Bezüge der Komödie zu literarischen Einzeltexten werden auch die kulturellen Implikationen des Befundes in den Fokus gerückt: Die komplexe Intertextualität ist ein wesentliches Merkmal von Aristophanes' Komödien und weckte bei den gebildeten Zeitgenossen die Lust am Lesen. Biographische Informationen Fabian Zogg hat Griechische und Lateinische Sprach- und Literaturwissenschaft studier

Abstract

"Fines allusions, esquives polies, ambiguïtés volontaires ou non : dans notre vie quotidienne, les sous-entendus sont partout. Nous sommes entraînés à les employer et à les décrypter. Mais avons-nous songé aux implications de ce phénomène ? Il ne se limite pas à des ruses ponctuelles et représente à lui seul une dimension du langage et des rapports sociaux. Le sous-entendu plonge ses racines dans une lecture allégorique du monde. Il est utilisé en littérature et en politique, notamment comme arme contre les totalitarismes. Il pose de délicats problèmes d'interprétation, car qui dit sous-entendu dit risque de malentendu.Deux moments clés sont mis en relation : l'Antiquité classique et la Modernité, depuis les philosophes et les sophistes grecs de l'Empire romain jusqu'à Stendhal, Balzac, Aragon ou Foucault, en passant par Hemingway, Orwell et d'autres. La démonstration s'appuie sur des exemples, des citations et des études de cas, tantôt graves, tantôt drôles – parfois osés. Pour la première fois, vous est proposée une enquête d'ensemble sur le non-dit et le dire autrement. Ce livre aura atteint son but s'il aide à voiler et à dévoiler, à mieux dire et à mieux recevoir."

Abstract

"Combining remarkable erudition with a clear and accessible style, Babylon under Western Eyes is the first comprehensive examination of Babylon's significance within the pantheon of western literature and a testimonial to the continuing influence of biblical, classical, and medieval paradigms in modern culture."-- "Babylon under Western Eyes examines the mythic legacy of ancient Babylon, the Near Eastern city which has served western culture as a metaphor for power, luxury, and exotic magnificence for more than two thousand years. Sifting through the many references to Babylon in biblical, classical, medieval, and modern texts, Andrew Scheil uses Babylon's remarkable literary ubiquity as the foundation for a thorough analysis of the dynamics of adaptation and allusion in western literature. Touching on everything from Old English poetry to the contemporary apocalyptic fiction of the "Left Behind" series, Scheil outlines how medieval Christian society and its cultural successors have adopted Babylon as a political metaphor, a degenerate archetype, and a place associated with the sublime."--

Abstract

In this book on intertextuality in Pliny the Younger, Professor Marchesi invites an alternative reading of Pliny's collection of private epistles: the letters are examined as the product of an authorial strategy controlling both the rhetorical fabric of individual units and their arrangement in the collection. By inserting recognisable fragments of canonical authors into his epistles, Pliny imports into the still fluid practice of letter-writing the principles of composition and organisation that for his contemporaries characterised other writings as literature. Allusions become the occasion for a metapoetic dialogue, especially with the collection's privileged addressee, Tacitus. An active participant in the cultural politics of his time, Pliny entrusts to the letters his views on poetry, oratory and historiography. In defining a model of epistolography alternative to Cicero's and complementing those of Horace, Ovid and Seneca, he also successfully carves a niche for his work in the Roman literary canon.

Abstract

This first in-depth account of Euripides and the visual arts demonstrates how the tragedian used language to visual effect, whether through allusion or actual references to objects, motifs built around real or imaginary objects, or the use of technical terminology. The evidence presented in this study corroborates the concern for realism and the genre detail for which Euripides is parodied in Aristophanes' Frogs and presents him as a man of his time, like Socrates, fully versed in the ways and means of the visual arts as well as the verbal. In revealing the extent of the visual inclination of Euripides' language, this study reflects upon the larger dialogue between text and image, image and text.

Abstract

Nonnus once vied with Homer for popularity; today his Dionysiaca languishes in obscurity. The Challenge of Epic offers a literary critical rehabilitation of Nonnus' fifth-century AD poem. It argues that modern neglect stems from a failure to appreciate the central position of allusion in late-antique poetry. Attention first focuses on intertextual allusion. It is argued that the poet draws on a plethora of allusions to the cycle of Greek mythology in order to imbue his specific narrative with a universal significance. Focus then shifts to metapoetic allusion: the way in which Nonnus alludes self-consciously to the process of writing, and develops parallels between himself and his subject, Dionysus. Through an appreciation of Nonnus' alllusive strategies, the modern reader can again engage with the mind-bending challenge of the Dionysiaca .
