摘要

摘要：在《颂》1.28中，贺拉斯通过关注毕达哥拉斯数学家阿尔奇塔斯和他在海边的坟墓，探讨了他最喜欢的话题之一：死亡和人类对死亡的适当态度。这篇论文解决了一个古老的解释难题，即这位数学家的几个特征属于阿基米德，认为贺拉斯有意将这两位数学家混为一谈，以回应西塞罗，西塞罗在《图斯库兰书》5.64中描绘了自己清洗阿基米德墓的著名形象。贺拉斯将阿基米德与阿契塔斯区分开来，突出了西塞罗赋予阿基米德的不朽光环，并能够更有力地提出自己截然不同的观点。

Horace’s Archytas Ode (1.28) and the Tomb of Archimedes in Cicero (Tusculanae Disputationes 5.64)

Abstract:In Odes 1.28, Horace deals with one of his favorite topics: death and the appropriate human disposition towards it, by focusing on the Pythagorean mathematician Archytas and his tomb near the sea. The paper tackles the old interpretive difficulty arising from the fact that several of the mathematician’s traits belong rather to Archimedes by arguing that Horace purposefully conflated the two mathematicians to respond to Cicero, who famously portrays himself cleaning Archimedes’ tomb in Tusculans 5.64. By identifying Archimedes with Archytas, Horace accentuates the aura of immortality attributed to Archimedes by Cicero and is able to offer his own contrasting view more forcefully.
