The epigram, I argue, fuses Hellenistic poetological imagery with the echo of a Roman declamatory topos concerning Cicero's decapitation by playfully suggesting that Cicero's head had miraculously traveled from Rome to Sardis. Reflecting on the implications of this imaginary voyage, I explore the complex dynamics of Polybios' epigram, which is exceptional in expressing a Greek's admiration for a Roman figure, against the backdrop of the period's bicultural discourse.","PeriodicalId":46128,"journal":{"name":"AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PHILOLOGY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45037453","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the majority of these testimonia expect the dithyramb to be associated with Dionysus, some show that this Dionysiac link was not exclusively followed as the defining criterion for the poems' classification, even after the Alexandrian taxonomy of lyric genres had been established. This article demonstrates that throughout antiquity generic identification of dithyrambs was a process that was always in the making.","PeriodicalId":46128,"journal":{"name":"AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PHILOLOGY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44923520","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The resulting narrative offers countless opportunities for interpretation. In it, realistic depictions of animal suffering caused by humans jostle with the most light-hearted X-rated romps; the contents of a ribald “Milesian tale” stud the confessions of a priest; a complicated allegory about love is questioned by its framing narrative. The novel’s central questions demand serious thought: why would a devotee of Isis include raunchy tales in his autobiography? Is the author/ass simply the last victim of all the religious scams he sees? Does the battered donkey stand as testimony to the suffering of ancient slaves? How does the Cupid and Psyche story reflect on Lucius’ curiosity? This complexity—and the fact that The Golden Ass makes for a fabulous read—renders the experience of reading the work pretty much inenarrabile. Enter Peter Singer, the Princeton utilitarian and bio-ethicist, who has recently published a curtailed version of the novel with a translation by classicist Ellen Finkelpearl. It’s unusual for bio-ethicists to publish editions of classical texts, but the motivation here was personal.

While the common view is that Daphnis' wasting was caused by a stubborn commitment to fidelity or to chastity, this paper argues that it is rather a symptom of his sexual impairment. The argument rests on two main elements: the connections between Daphnis and other figures acting as Aphrodite's consorts, and the presence of lexical clues pointing to the sexual character of the cowherd's illness. Finally, I argue that Theocritus' enigmatic account of Daphnis' fate in the first Idyll is consistent with the pervading metapoetic discourse of the poem: impotence serves to highlight Daphnis' fecundity as the founder of bucolic song.","PeriodicalId":46128,"journal":{"name":"AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PHILOLOGY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41983429","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

My analysis seeks to promote the convergence between the \"page\" and the \"stage\" by demonstrating the close interrelation between visual and verbal meaning, and how embodied experience decidedly shapes both the language and performance of this tragedy. In particular, I indicate how the tragic playwright relies on embodied gesture and metaphor to illuminate important themes and motifs in the drama, most notably the concept of metabolê (change), the overturn of fortune, and the transition from freedom to enslavement. I ultimately aim to suggest that the play's thematic unity is also established and relayed though the materiality of the lived body. By means of its remarkable emphasis on kinetic actions and expressions, Trojan Women makes its somatic meaning felt, as the spectator (like the modern reader) is invited to evaluate tragic (un)moving bodies through the corporeal imagination of the script.","PeriodicalId":46128,"journal":{"name":"AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PHILOLOGY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43515794","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
