Abstract

Parole investie de pouvoirs tournés vers les dieux et les hommes, les hymnes s'apparentent en même temps à une matière malléable travaillée par la main des poètes. La biographie divine qu'ils relatent porte en effet l'empreinte des projets politiques, poétiquers et religieux de la société où ils s'inscrivent ou du poète qui les entonne. Le poète alexandrin Callimaque bouleverse la tradition hymnique dans la mesure où il adopte plusieurs principes de composition et réinvente les formes et les fonctions des hymnes existants. L'étude comparative proposée ici explore les liens intertextuels et les régimes discursifs propres aux Hymnes du poète hellénistique, aux Hymnes homériques et aux hymnes cultuels épigraphiques. Riches de particularités qui les distinguent, les hymnes de Callimaque contiennent chacun une certaine réthorique destinée à persuader le dieu qu'ils célèbrent tout en s'assurant une efficacité sociale auprès de la communauté qu'ils concernent. Une triple incrustation contextuelle que l'érudition du poète parvient à tourner en jeu littéraire.

Abstract

The Homeric Hymn to Aphrodite (600s BCE?) tells the story of a brief encounter between the goddess of love and the cowherd Anchises, which led to the birth of the Trojan hero Aeneas. Less than 300 lines long, it is among the shortest of the so-called ‘major Homeric Hymns’. However, it is also richly and beautifully conceived and narrated, and of enormous importance for the Greek mythology and the history of Greek religion. Olson offers a complete new text of the poem and of ten related ‘minor Hymns’, based on a fresh examination of the manuscripts; a full critical apparatus; and a translation. The work is completed by a substantial introduction, which treats inter alia the stories of Aeneas, the problem of dating early Greek epic, and the nature of the connections between the Hymn to Aphrodite and the Homeric and Hesiodic poems. Olson furthermore offers a substantial, narratologically-oriented commentary.

Abstract

Ancient Greek hymns traditionally include a narrative section describing episodes from the hymned deity's life. These narratives developed in parallel with epic and other narrative genres, and their study provides a different perspective on ancient Greek narrative. Within the hymn genre, the place and function of the narrative section changed over time and with different kinds of hymn (literary or cultic; religious, philosophical or magical). Hymnic Narrative and the Narratology of Greek Hymns traces developments in narrative in the hymn genre from the Homeric Hymns via Hellenistic and Imperial hymns to those in the Orphic tradition and in magical papyri, analysing them in narratological terms in order to place them in the wider context of ancient Greek narrative literature. Contributors are: Ewen Bowie, Michael Brumbaugh, Nicola Devlin, William D. Furley, Miguel Herrero de Jáuregi, Anne-France Morand, Ivana Petrovic, Nicholas Richardson, Susan A. Stephens, and Athanassios Vergados --

Abstract

"This is the first collection of scholarly essays on the 'Homeric Hymns', a corpus of 33 hexameter poems celebrating gods that were probably recited at religious festivals, among other possible performance venues, and were frequently attributed in antiquity to Homer. After a general introduction to modern scholarship on the 'Homeric Hymns', the essays of the first part of the book examine in detail aspects of the longer narrative poems in the collection, while those of the second part give critical attention to the shorter poems and to the collection as a whole. The contributors to the volume present a wide range of stimulating views on the study of the 'Homeric Hymns', which have attracted much intereset in recent years" --
