Abstract:

This book is the first extended modern study of the Latin poet Ovid’s Homeric intertextuality. Ovid’s relationship with the Homeric poems is shown to be neither occasional nor simply incidental; rather, careful and creative readings of the abundant evidence of Ovid’s career-long engagement with the Iliad and the Odyssey demonstrate a coherent and profound pattern of animated intertextuality and transformative reception. Passages and poems from throughout Ovid’s major works offer a vivid picture of the ways in which Ovid styles himself as a worthy successor to Homer. Central to the discussion throughout the book are two central tropes, articulated on both the thematic and metatexual levels: paternity and desire. For Ovid, the poetics of paternity is a way of reading the Homeric poems, as well as a way of positioning himself as a legitimate heir to Homer’s poetic authority; and the poetics of desire, expressed especially strongly through repetition, allows Ovid to characterize himself as a devoted reader and editor of Homer, whose emulation of his model is grounded in an intimate appreciation for and knowledge of the text. Through a sustained reading sensitive to the dynamics of reception, this book puts forward a new perspective on Ovid, and offers a fertile model for the analysis of Latin poetry.

Abstract:

This book offers five readings of the Homeric poems through five different postures, actions, or gestures: falling, running, leaping, standing, and reaching. It argues for a connection between formularity and embodiment in Homeric epic by tracing, in each chapter, the story of a particular gesture through one or both of the poems. In doing so, it presents a new understanding of what the body does and suffers in Homer alongside original readings and arguments about the structure and meaning of the poems themselves. It revises our understanding of formula and type scenes in the Iliad and Odyssey by reading repetition through the body, identifying a relationship between familiar epic movements—learned through repetition, reinforced by muscle memory, and culturally engrained—and the verbal formulas through which many of the movements are conveyed. As a result, the book suggests a different way of thinking about epic repetition, both insofar as it relates to the sequencing of action through time, and in relation to the autonomy and agency of the Homeric body and its role within the narrative.

Abstract:

This book examines Homer’s use of Hades as a poetic resource. By portraying Hades as a realm where vision is not possible, Homer creates a unique poetic environment where social constraints and divine prohibitions are not applicable. The resulting narrative emulates that of the Muses but is markedly distinct from it, as in Hades experimentation with and alteration of epic forms and values can be pursued, giving rise to a ‘poetics of Hades’. In the Iliad, Homer shows how this alternative poetics works through the visit of Patroclus’ shade in Achilles’ dream. The recollection offered by the shade reveals an approach to its past in which regret, self-pity, and a lingering memory of intimate and emotional moments displace an objective tone and a traditional exposition of heroic values. The potential of Hades for providing alternative means of commemorating the past is more fully explored in the ‘Nekyia’ of Odyssey 11; there, Odysseus’ extraordinary ability to see (idein) the dead in Hades allows him to meet and interview the shades of heroines and heroes of the epic past. The absolute confinement of Hades allows the shades to recount their stories from their own viewpoint. The poetic implications of this are important since by visiting Hades and hearing the shades’ stories, Odysseus–and Homer—gains access to a tradition in which epic values associated with gender roles and even divine law are suspended in favour of a more immediate and personally inflected approach to the epic past.

Abstract:

Chapter 2 focuses on the Homeric character Diomedes and his appearances in Ovid’s poetry. It begins with a detailed discussion of the scene in Iliad Book 4 in which Agamemnon chastises Diomedes for not being quicker to join the fighting, comparing him to his detriment with his father, Tydeus. The discussion focuses on a small but significant ambiguity in this episode regarding Diomedes’s response to Agamemnon, and then proceeds to a more general consideration of the centrality of paternity to Homeric values. A reading informed by the poetics of metatextuality suggests the relevance of this scene to Ovid’s relationship with Homer. The remainder of the chapter offers a detailed analysis of two episodes in the Ovidian corpus featuring Diomedes, Amores 1.7 and an episode in Metamorphoses Book 14, and suggests how Ovid uses them as opportunities to position himself as the poetic “son” of Homer.

Abstract:

Chapter 3 recaps the centrality of paternity as thematic and metatextual link between Homer and Ovid. It considers the didactic or paradigmatic connotations of paternal guidance and then turns to the Embassy to Achilles (Book 9 of the Iliad), in which the power of a father to guide his son is validated but also shown to be severely limited. Achilles’s tutor Phoenix tries to soften Achilles’s anger with an exemplum about Meleager: this attempt on Phoenix’s part fails, and thus enacts the poem’s recurring theme of generational conflict. The chapter then focuses on the Calydonian boar hunt in Metamorphoses Book 8 and on Heroides 3, Briseis’s letter to Achilles, which feature the Meleager story and the Embassy to Achilles. In both, Ovid uses the Homeric intertext to explore the nature of his relationship with the Homeric poems and the limits of Homer’s paternal guidance.
