Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The History of Ancient Greek Literature is an exceptional and comprehensive textbook of Europe's oldest civilization. The book covers the ancient Greek literature from the earliest texts until the time of the Byzantine Empire. It begins with the earliest surviving works of ancient Greek literature, the two epic poems the Iliad and the Odyssey, set in an idealized archaic past today identified as having some relation to the Mycenaean era. Homer's epics as well as the Homeric Hymns and the two poems of Hesiod, Theogony and Works and Days, comprised the major foundations of the Greek literary tradition that would continue into the Classical, Hellenistic, and Roman periods. All above mentioned periods are presented in this book with a special emphasise on every particularly literary genre of ancient Greek literature - epic poetry, lyric poetry, drama, historiography and philosophy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brilliantly applying insights and methodologies from anthropology, literary theory, and the social sciences to the historical study of archaic lyric, Poetry and Its Public in Ancient Greece, winner of Italy's prestigious Viareggio Prize, develops a new Picture of the literary history of Greece. An essentially practical art, ancient Greek poetry was clocely linked to the realities of social and political life and to the actual behavior of individuals within a community. Its mythological content was didactic and pedagogical. But Greek poetry differs radically from modern forms in its mode of communication: it was designed not for reading but for performance, with musical accompaniment, before an audience. In analyzing the formal and social aspects of this performance context, Gentili illuminates such topics as oral composition and improvisation, oral transmission and memory, the connections betweek poetry and music, the changing socioeconomic situation of the artist, and the relations among poets, patrons, and the public.

Download or read book A Brief History of Ancient Greek written by Stephen Colvin and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-12-05 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A BRIEF HISTORY OF Ancient Greek Attested since the fourteenth century BC, and still spoken today by over 10 million people, Greek has been one of the most influential languages in human history. English, Spanish, French, Russian, and Arabic are among the many languages to have borrowed key terms and concepts from Greek. A Brief History of Ancient Greek takes the reader through the history of this ancient language from its Indo-European beginnings right up to the present day, and explains key relationships between the language and literature of the Classical period (500–300 bc). The development of the language is also related to the social and political context, in line with modern sociolinguistic thought. The book reflects the latest scholarship on subjects such as koine Greek, and the relationship between literary and vernacular Greek. All Greek is transliterated and translated where appropriate, so that the text is accessible to readers who know little or no Greek, including scholars and students who require an accessible overview of the history of the language, or linguists and professionals who need a quick source of data and background information.

Excerpt: ...he aims at a lofty, elegant, and elaborate (eyxareaxzvov) phraseolog.' In comparing these two masters of Greek eloquence, Dionysius has given us a very felicitous analogy. ' It seems to me, ' he says,2 ' that we should not err if we compared the diction of Plato to a meadow gay with flowers, and furnished with pleasant arbours and transient gratifications; 'whereas, the language of Demosthenes might be likened to a fruitful field, rich in produce, and wanting neither the necessaries of life nor the superfluities of enjoyment.' Although these remarks of Dionysius will be endorsed by most of the critical readers of Plato in our days, it will be felt that in some respects he has not done full justice to the literary merits of the great philosopher. In Plato the powers of the imagination were just as conspicuous as those of reasoning and reflexion; he had all the chief characteristics of a poet, especially of a dramatic poet; and if his rank as a philosopher had been lower than it is, he would still have stood unrivalled, except by Shakspere, in the power of exhibiting dramatically, and in the form of dialogue, a consistent development of character, and so giving to his interlocutors all that is required in a lifelike representation of the personages whose opinions he wishes to combat or defend. The slightest touch sometimes lends a finish to the picture, as when the equestrian Antipho is found in the act of ordering a bit,3 or the bare-footed Socrates either in his ordinary' or his exceptional attire.5 The more elaborate V and fanciful pictures which he introduces are not less remarkable for their descriptive power, than the dramatic incidents are for their vivid reality. Nothing can be..
