Au sein des plus grands sanctuaires d'Apollon, une place est dévolue à Artémis : elle y reçoit un culte et possède souvent son propre temple. Le mythe de la naissance des jumeaux divins explique en partie cet appariement, mais ne suffit pas à rendre compte de la place et de la fonction réservées à la déesse dans ces lieux sacrés. Dans le tandem qu'elle forme avec son frère là où il règne en maître, quel est le rôle assumé par Artémis ? Cette question est au cœur du présent ouvrage, qui rassemble systématiquement les documents archéologiques et textuels disponibles sur les sites de Délos, de Delphes, de Claros et de Didymes. Leur confrontation critique éclaire la place et le rôle spécifique de la déesse d'un sanctuaire à l'autre. Près d'Apollon et souvent dans son ombre, Artémis semble avoir été un rouage essentiel dans l'articulation des pratiques locales avec les cultes panhelléniques. Attirant une clientèle très diverse par ses origines géographiques, son statut social et son genre, la déesse a été impliquée à différents titres et avec une intensité variable dans la vie des cités qui géraient ces sanctuaires. Sa position secondaire par rapport à son jumeau lui a conservé une plasticité qui a favorisé l'évolution de son culte au plan local.

This study investigates the reception of contemporary religion in Hellenistic poetry and analyses the treatment of the cult of Artemis—taken as paradigmatic—in Theocritus’ second Idyll and Callimachus’ Hymns . Both Theocritus and Callimachus display a lively interest in contemporary religion in all its facets and each dwells upon an aspect of the cult of Artemis absent in earlier poetry: Theocritus depicts her as a goddess of magic, and Callimachus as a city-goddess. These are precisely the features of her cult that gained prominence in the Hellenistic period. The monograph aims to advance scholarly understanding of the integration and transformation of religious motifs in Hellenistic literature. Die vorliegende Monographie untersucht die Rezeption der zeitgenössischen Religion in der hellenistischen Dichtung, und zwar am Beispiel des Artemiskultes, wie er sich im zweiten Idyll des Theokrit und in den Hymnen des Kallimachos abbildet. Die Analyse zeigt, daß beide Dichter nicht nur großes Interesse an der zeitgenössischen Religion in allen ihren Facetten haben, sondern darüber hinaus jeweils Aspekte des Artemiskultes akzentuieren, die in der hellenistischen Zeit besonders markant sind: Theokrit zeichnet Artemis als eine Göttin der Magie, wogegen Kallimachos Artemis’ Zuständigkeitsbereich ausdifferenziert, wobei er neben der Natur und Jagd vor allem die Stadtgöttin in den Vordergrund stellt. Neben der poetischen Inszenierung der religiösen Phänomene liegt der besondere Schwerpunkt auf der literarischen Umsetzung und neuen Kontextualisierung im Gedichtcorpus.

The division of land and consolidation of territory that created the Greek polis also divided sacred from productive space, sharpened distinctions between purity and pollution, and created a ritual system premised on gender difference. Regional sanctuaries ameliorated competition between city-states, publicized the results of competitive rituals for males, and encouraged judicial alternatives to violence. Female ritual efforts, focused on reproduction and the health of the family, are less visible, but, as this provocative study shows, no less significant. Taking a fresh look at the epigraphical evidence for Greek ritual practice in the context of recent studies of landscape and political organization, Susan Guettel Cole illuminates the profoundly gendered nature of Greek cult practice and explains the connections between female rituals and the integrity of the community. In a rich integration of ancient sources and current theory, Cole brings together the complex evidence for Greek ritual practice. She discusses relevant medical and philosophical theories about the female body; considers Greek ideas about purity, pollution, and ritual purification; and examines the cult of Artemis in detail. Her nuanced study demonstrates the social contribution of women's rituals to the sustenance of the polis and the identity of its people.
