Abstract

This article discusses the hexameter piece in Aeschylus’ fragments 168–168b Radt (probably from Semele or Water-bearers), a hymn to the nymphs of Argos sung by Hera while disguised as a wandering priestess. First I detail the way in which the text evokes and adapts the tradition of hymnic poetry in hexameters (instantiated, among others, by the Homeric Hymns) in both content and form. Then I argue that Aeschylus performs an exercise in generic archaeology, recreating an archetypal stage of the hymnic tradition in the fitting context of a mythical episode.

悲剧六步诗与一般考古学:赫拉对仙女的赞美诗。弗拉格(1668 - 168b)

这篇文章讨论了埃斯库罗斯的碎片168-168b Radt中的六声部（可能来自Semele或Water bearer），这是赫拉伪装成流浪女祭司为阿尔戈斯的仙女们唱的赞美诗。首先，我详细介绍了文本在内容和形式上唤起和改编六声部赞美诗传统的方式（其中包括荷马赞美诗）。然后，我认为埃斯库罗斯在一般考古学中进行了一次练习，在神话情节的合适背景下重现了赞美诗传统中的原型阶段。

期刊介绍： Classical Philology has been an internationally respected journal for the study of the life, languages, and thought of the Ancient Greek and Roman world since 1906. CP covers a broad range of topics from a variety of interpretative points of view. CP welcomes both longer articles and short notes or discussions that make a significant contribution to the study of Greek and Roman antiquity. Any field of classical studies may be treated, separately or in relation to other disciplines, ancient or modern. In particular, we invite studies that illuminate aspects of the languages, literatures, history, art, philosophy, social life, and religion of ancient Greece and Rome. Innovative approaches and originality are encouraged as a necessary part of good scholarship.
