摘要

本文考察了古希腊占卜或鸟类占卜的实践和戏剧表现。它分析了埃斯库罗斯的《阿伽门农》、索福克勒斯的《底比斯循环》和阿里斯托芬的《鸟类》等戏剧中对预兆的描述,并断言鸟类与神的独特关系以及与神的亲密关系为它们提供了人类应该注意的有意义的见解。这部作品最终邀请当代读者看到从鸟类的飞行、声音和动作中收集到的信息的价值,并认为诋毁和忽视鸟类知识的人类往往会面临灾难性的后果,正如这些剧中的许多角色所证明的那样。

What Happens When We Don’t Listen to Birds: Augury in Ancient Greek Drama
This essay examines the practice and theatrical representation of augury, or divination by birds, in ancient Greece. It analyzes depictions of augury in Aeschylus’s Agamemnon, Sophocles’s Theban cycle, and Aristophanes’s The Birds, among other plays, and asserts that birds’ unique relationship with—and close proximity to—the gods afford them meaningful insights that humans would do well to heed. The work ultimately invites contemporary readers to see value in the messages gleaned from birds’ flight, sounds, and movements, and argues that humans who discredit and dismiss the knowledge of birds often face catastrophic outcomes, as demonstrated by so many of the characters in these plays.
