The analysis starts from the different claims on origin made in the four canonical Gospels, on the one hand, and the developed theory of origin in Augustine's Confessions, on the other, where the question of \"where do I come from?\" is entwined with reflections on the history of the soul, the nature of time, the functioning of memory, and an exegesis of the multiform interpretations of the book of Genesis, the foundational story of origin for the religious tradition which he is helping to create. This recognition of the extensive discourse of origins taking shape in late antiquity provides a frame for the central analysis of Nonnus's Dionysiaca and its extraordinary stories of the origin of Beroe (Beirut), where stories of beginnings multiply and swirl with a Dionysiac transformative confusion. The article explores how Nonnus contributes a specific and complex vision of the rich incoherence of the discourse of origin in late antiquity, in and against arguments about temporality based on the debates about the authority of the Nicene creed.","PeriodicalId":44750,"journal":{"name":"ARETHUSA","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44523524","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing lightly on the theories of Jacques Derrida and Friedrich Kittler, I will unpack this enigmatic proposal by considering how a Latin letter, Nisi tanti seminis, imagines and performs writing as such by engaging a series of biblically-derived objects: chest, jug, lamp, textile. More than \"mere\" metaphors, these objects have something to say about the agency of writing qua medium. As we shall see, writing produces the writer, as much as the other way round. Writing is, moreover, revealed to be at once mechanical and revelatory, repetitious, and generative, primordial and of the moment—in short, quintessentially performative.","PeriodicalId":44750,"journal":{"name":"ARETHUSA","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46768601","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper traces the history of an increasingly irreverent attitude towards Greece's foundational poet and his heroes within panegyric compositions and asks what motivates this flamboyant rejection. The impact of a Christian mode of exemplarity is incontestable, but cannot wholly account for this development. Christian encomia which engage the Hebrew Bible for their synkriseis generally shy away from undercutting the venerable biblical exempla. My suggestion is that the \"aggressive\" attitude towards Iliadic exempla in classicizing panegyric is bound up with the position of the Iliad as the didactic text par excellence and as a central, yet deeply problematic, text in debates around ideal rulership.","PeriodicalId":44750,"journal":{"name":"ARETHUSA","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49019728","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this essay, I look at three Greek works from the imperial period: Quintus's Posthomerica, Triphiodorus's Sack of Troy, and Colluthus's Abduction of Helen. These poems display a highly paradoxical approach to literary origins. They maintain a hyper-close relationship to Homer, adopting his language, style, and Trojan subject. And yet they also include signals which disavow these Homerizing claims: philological quirks, contemporary references, and later literary allusions. By focusing not, as is usual for recent imperial epic scholarship, on these poems' programmatic openings, but rather on their highly complicated ends, I argue that they all put forth an alternative mode of response to originality and canonicity. Opening up Homer's poems as they close their own, they continue the epic canon in a non-linear fashion: returning to its deep, foundational past, and also treating it as inherently open and unfinished—ripe for correction, expansion, and ultimately re-embodiment.","PeriodicalId":44750,"journal":{"name":"ARETHUSA","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47083361","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
