Abstract

Abstract This article argues that Apollonius was aware of the foul smell of the Lemnian women and its mythological variants. While Apollonius does not mention the δυσοσμία , he builds a complex allusion to it and its omission around the rare verb ἀμαλδύνω . Its deployment to cap Hypsipyle’s speech to Jason (A.R. 1.834) draws a parallel between her erasure of the Lemnian crime and the obliteration of the Achaean wall in the Iliad , but with a witty sting in its tail. The verb first occurs at Iliad 7.463 where Zeus grants Poseidon permission to annihilate the wall, followed by the arrival of Euneus (the son of Jason and Hypsipyle) bringing wine from Lemnos to the Achaean camp. Apollonius uses the verb once more to describe the sun wiping out the scent of prey (4.112) thus making a meta-reference to his own omission of the Lemnian odour in Book 1.

让杰森失去嗅觉

摘要本文认为阿波罗尼乌斯意识到了莱姆尼亚妇女的恶臭及其神话变体。虽然阿波罗尼乌斯没有提到δ δ σοσμ α，但他在罕见的动词“ν μαλδ ω”周围建立了一个复杂的典故和它的省略。用它来盖住希希派勒对伊阿宋的演讲(公元1834年)，把她对莱姆尼亚罪行的抹去与《伊利亚特》中对亚该亚城墙的抹去相提并论，但在它的尾巴上有一个诙谐的刺。这个动词第一次出现在《伊利亚特》第7.463章，宙斯允许波塞冬摧毁城墙，随后尤涅斯(伊阿宋和希西普勒的儿子)从利姆诺斯带着酒来到了亚该亚人的营地。阿波罗尼乌斯再次使用这个动词来描述太阳抹去猎物的气味(4.112)，从而对他自己在第一卷中遗漏的莱姆尼亚气味进行了元参考。
