Book Synopsis Apollonius of Rhodes and the Spaces of Hellenism by : William G. Thalmann
Download or read book Apollonius of Rhodes and the Spaces of Hellenism written by William G. Thalmann and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2011-05-20 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Apollonius of Rhodes' extraordinary epic poem on the Argonauts' quest for the Golden Fleece has begun to get the attention it deserves, it still is not well known to many readers and scholars. This book explores the poem's relation to the conditions of its writing in third century BCE Alexandria, where a multicultural environment transformed the Greeks' understanding of themselves and the world. Apollonius uses the resources of the imagination - the myth of the Argonauts' voyage and their encounters with other peoples - to probe the expanded possibilities and the anxieties opened up when definitions of Hellenism and boundaries between Greeks and others were exposed to question. Central to this concern with definitions is the poem's representation of space. Thalmann uses spatial theories from cultural geography and anthropology to argue that the Argo's itinerary defines space from a Greek perspective that is at the same time qualified. Its limits are exposed, and the signs with which the Argonauts mark space by their passage preserve the stories of their complex interactions with non-Greeks. The book closely considers many episodes in the narrative with regard to the Argonauts' redefinition of space and the implications of their actions for the Greeks' situation in Egypt, and it ends by considering Alexandria itself as a space that accommodated both Greek and Egyptian cultures.

Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references.

The volume contains a wide range of articles and thus provides a survey of current developments in research on Apollonius. Several articles show how recent developments in modern literary criticism or linguistics can lead to new or more refined insights in our understanding of Apollonius' poetry. Others show how a renewed analysis of selected passages can contribute to our overall view of this poet. This volume is the fourth of a series. Every two years a Workshop on Hellenistic Poetry takes place at the University of Groningen, the papers of which are published in the series "Hellenistica Groningana".

Book Synopsis Vergil's Aeneid and the Argonautica of Apollonius Rhodius by : Damien Nelis

This book was released on 2001 with total page 554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Virgil's debt to Homer is well known but, as this detailed and specialised analysis demonstrates, Apollonius Rhodius' Argonautica , itself influenced by Homer, was a more immediate source. Assuming prior knowledge of the texts, Greek and Latin, Damien Nelis scrutinises and compares specific episodes, characters or passages of text from Virgil, Apollonius and Homer, providing a fresh perspective on all three authors, and looks for the reasoning behind Virgil's choice of sources. Extracts in Greek and Latin.
