Texto completo da fonteResumo:
In this thesis I examine the vocal techniques employed by performers of contemporary Greek Pontic and Epirotic traditional music. Combining fieldwork analysis with personal experience, I have been able to demonstrate the underlying cognitive and physiological processes that inform these techniques. While anatomical considerations constitute a central focus of this analysis, I offer at the same time an appraisal of vocal bimusicality. The latter issue arises from my own particular perspectives, understandings and personal experience in diverse musical worlds. The objectives of this research are: a) to identify current vocal techniques in Pontic and Epirotic styles, paying special attention to the exceptional use of the larynx and the articulation/projection of vocalized sounds; b) to bridge the gap between theory and practice in studies of voice and vocal production; and c) to demonstrate how personal experience is relevant to ethnographic research in vocal music. In introducing the research field, chapter I of this study reflects on my role as a native researcher-performer and outlines my choice of case studies. The following chapter reviews the Cantometrics project and considers its relevance to Greek folk song. In addition, other scholarly literature pertinent to the present analysis is surveyed, while there is also consideration of fundamental anatomical and physiological issues. Chapters III and IV focus on the central points of analysis in the thesis with special emphasis on the vocal production of the Pontic and Epirotic styles. Employing verbatim quotations from: a) five co-workers in the Pontic style and b) five co-workers and one polyphonic group in the Epirotic style, I analyze the vocal production of these two Greek musical genres as currently performed. The main conclusions of the research refer to techniques such as: a) the movable larynx, b) the extensive use of the soft palate and upper chest area, c) the widening of the mouth, and d) the dropping of the jaw, which are equally discussed in detail. In the same vein, an analogy is drawn between the vocal production and the size of the musical intervals used in both traditions. Chapter V deals with my own learning processes in Greek folk culture and also in the two aspects of my musicality: the Pontic and Western operatic. Here I endeavour to locate myself among my co-workers and also to provide an 'insider's' view on the subject of bimusicality. I also comment upon the effect that ensues when moving from the Pontic to the operatic vocal style, that is to say, the consequences of changing musical systems and musical envirom-nents. The final chapter summarizes the findings of this monograph whose practice-based research is also accompanied by a DVD containing performances by co-workers and by audio examples. In these ways, I attempt to bridge the 'gap' between theory and practice in those aspects of vocal production that stem from an aural/oral musical tradition.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
Nach der Schlacht von Actium am 2. September 31 v. Chr. war alles anders. Mit seinem Aufstieg zum unumstrittenen Alleinherrscher des Imperium Romanum wurde Augustus in den östlichen Reichsteilen kultisch verehrt. In Griechenland waren aus der hellenistischen Tradition heraus die Bedingungen für eine göttergleiche Ehrung des Herrschers gut bereitet. Das Anliegen dieser Studie ist es zu untersuchen, wie sich der Kult in den römischen Provinzen Griechenlands entwickeln und festigen konnte. Dabei werden zunächst Vorläufer kultischer Ehrungen römischer Staatsmänner in republikanischer Zeit betrachtet. Spannend ist dann in frühaugusteischer Zeit vor allem der bauliche Übergang, oftmals wurde der neue Kult des Kaisers in bereits bestehende Heiligtümer integriert. Gegenstand der Untersuchung sind nicht nur die Kaiser selbst, sondern auch ihre Familienmitglieder. Für die Betrachtungen werden Kultorte, Tempel und Altäre herangezogen. Kaiserfeste und ihre Ausrichtung spielen eine Rolle, ebenso das Amt der kaiserlichen Priester und Priesterinnen sowie Stifter und Stifterinnen. Unter kultur- und religionsgeschichtlichen Aspekten werden Fragen nach den Formen des Kaiserkultes aufgeworfen: Wie wurde dieser formal dargestellt und in welche städtischen und architektonischen Kontexte wurde der Kult eingebunden? Fragen nach der Praxis kultischer Verehrung sollen im Hintergrund stehen, wenn ausgewählte Zeugnisse des Kaiserkults von iulisch-claudischer bis in flavische Zeit betrachtet werden. Dabei bildet Athen einen hervorragenden Ausgangspunkt für einen provinzübergreifenden Vergleich, der anhand selektiver Beispiele von lokalen Kaiserkultstätten in den Provinzen Achaia, Epirus und Macedonia bereichert wird. Dabei werden Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede in den genannten Regionen herausgestellt, die das Phänomen Kaiserkult beleuchten.Early Roman imperial cult in the provinces of Achaia, Epirus and Macedonia After Actium everything changed. With his rise to the sole ruler of the Imperium Romanum, Augustus began to be worshiped in the eastern Empire. Because of its Hellenic tradition Greece had been well prepared for emperor worship. The aim of this study is to investigate how emperor worship came to be established in the Roman provinces of Greece. It first considers the precursors of worshipping Roman statesmen in the Republican period. In the following early Augustan period, there is a fascinating architectural transformation in which the new cult for the emperor was often integrated into preexisting sanctuaries. The focus of this investigation is not only the emperor himself, but also his family members. It is thus necessary to consider cult sites, sanctuaries and altars. Imperial festivals also play a role, as do imperial priests and benefactors. Questions are raised about the forms of emperor worship within their cultural and religious contexts: how was imperial cult integrated into and physically represented in its urban and architectural spaces? The actual practices of cultic worship constitute the necessary background for interpreting the evidence of Julio-Claudian and Flavian emperor worship. Athens is thus an excellent starting point for a comparison between provinces, based on case studies of imperial cult sites in the provinces of Achaia, Epirus and Macedonia. By virtue of these comparisons, similarities and differences across the regions come to the fore and ultimately help illuminate the phenomenon of emperor worship.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
Ce travail est un essai de monographie sur les Illyriens vus à travers leurs contacts avec le monde grec. L’objectif est donc de reprendre l’histoire des populations illyriennes dans une perspective qui est celle de la frontier history, et pour cela réinterpréter toute la documentation disponible sans hellénocentrisme ni a priori idéologique. Les recherches en Albanie se sont considérablement développées depuis une vingtaine d’années, grâce notamment à l’ouverture du pays à des missions étrangères, et on dispose désormais de données suffisantes, mais il faut interpréter ces données dans la perspective d’une étude des interactions culturelles. Une contextualisation précise, tant historique qu’archéologique, des vecteurs d’acculturation représente donc l’enjeu essentiel de ce travail.Ainsi, dans une première partie, il s’agit d’abord de fixer les éléments du décor qui permettent de bien contextualiser ces phénomènes dans l’espace et le temps : cadre géographique, localisation des populations, évolution historique. Dans un deuxième temps sont étudiés les lieux, les vecteurs, les occasions des contacts et la nature des échanges, en d’autres termes les facteurs d’acculturation : où, quand, comment, pourquoi les deux cultures se rencontrent-elles ? Sont envisagés successivement les lieux d’échanges commerciaux, les espaces de conflits, les lieux sacrés, et l’espace domestique. À partir de là, la dernière partie étudie les transformations observés dans tous les secteurs de la vie socio-culturelle : la linguistique et onomastique, les productions matérielles, les rites funéraires et la mythologie, l’urbanisme et l’architecture, et enfin les institutions.Il y a deux moments forts qui mettent les populations grecques et indigènes en contact, celui des implantations coloniales qui entrainent plutôt une hellénisation dite verticale, touchant uniquement les élites, puis celui de l’unification de ces régions dans le royaume de Pyrrhus avec une hellénisation dite horizontale, très étroitement liée au phénomène d’urbanisation et au développement des classes moyennes de marchands et artisans. La position de carrefour de ces régions qui, grâce aux vallées fluviales, ont à la fois une façade adriatique et un débouché sur la Macédoine et la mer Egée, ce que matérialise bien le parcours de la via Candavia ou Egnatia, explique la diffusion permanente des produits grecs et la mobilité des personnes qui aboutissentt à la lente élaboration de ce qu’on peut appeler une koinè illyro-épiroteThis work is an essay for a monograph about the Illyrians studied through their contacts with the Greek world. The objective is therefore to take back the history of the Illyrian populations using the new approach of the frontier history, which implies to reinterpret all the available documentation without any Hellenocentrism nor ideological a priori. Research in Albania has developed considerably over the past 20 years, thanks in particular to the opening of the country to foreign missions, and sufficient data are now available, but these data must be interpreted in the context of a study of cultural interactions. Precise contextualization, bothhistorical and archaeological, of the acculturation vectors represents therefore the essential stake of this work.Thus, in a first part, it is first of all a question of fixing the elements of the decor that allow contextualizing these phenomena in space and time: geographical framework, localization of the populations, historical evolution. In a second stage, the places, the vectors, the opportunities of contacts and the nature of exchanges are studied, in other words the factors of acculturation: where, when, how, why do the two cultures meet? From there, the last part studies the transformations observed in all sectors of socio-cultural life: linguistics and onomastics, material productions, funerary rites and mythology, urban planning and architecture, and finally institutions.There are two strong moments that put the Greek and indigenous populations in contact, that of the colonial settlements which lead rather to a so-called vertical Hellenization, touching only the elites, then that of the unification of these regions in the kingdom of Pyrrhus with a so-called horizontal Hellenization, very closely linked to the phenomenon of urbanization and the development of the middle classes of merchants and craftsmen. The crossroads position of these regions which, thanks to the river valleys, have both an Adriatic facade and an outlet to Macedonia and the Aegean Sea, which the route of Via Candavia or Egnatia well materialize, explains the constant diffusion of Greek products and the mobility of people which leads to the slow development of what can be called an illyro-epirotic koinè

Avant le lias moyen, le domaine ionien faisait partie d'une vaste plate-forme carbonatee et neritique occupant toute la grece occidentale. Au carixian la plate-forme se disloque et s'approfondit dans tout le domaine ionien (calcaires de louros et leur equivalent lateral, les calcaires de siniais). Ces deux facies correspondent aux premiers sediments syn-rift. Le bassin initial se separe en petites unites paleogeographiques (sur chaque bloc bascule). Sur ces unites se sont deposees les formations du lias superieur-malm de telle sorte que les successions continues et epaisses correspondent dans les domaines effondres, tandis que les successions reduites avec discordances et lacunes de sedimentation dans les domaines eleves des blocs. La direction des evenements synsedimentaires de la base des formations du lias superieur-malm est parallele a celle du biseau stratigraphique des prismes de depot formes par les memes formations. Les calcaires de vigia (tithonique-senonien moyen) representent le debut de la serie post-rift. La double vergence de la structure ionienne correspondrait a la reprise en chevauchement des failles listriques du jurassique. La zone ionienne constitue un bon exemple d'inversion tectonique d'un bassin

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
2010 - 2011Il lavoro di tesi è incentrato sull’approfondimento della natura anti-epicurea dell’opuscolo dei Moralia di Plutarco dal titolo Non posse suaviter vivi secundum Epicurum. L’introduzione analizza aspetti di carattere generale relativi all’opera (tradizione testuale, edizioni a stampa, contenuto, datazione) e la esamina alla luce della sua natura polemica, presentando le metodologie adoperate nel commento per fornire un’analisi dei contesti, delle motivazioni e delle strategie adottate da Plutarco nella confutazione dei dettami fondamentali della filosofia del Giardino. Particolare attenzione viene rivolta alla cornice dialogica che introduce e sostiene l’intero svolgimento dell’esposizione dottrinaria, e al sistema dei personaggi (gli allievi di Plutarco, Plutarco stesso), con specifico riferimento alla loro caratterizzazione e alla funzione che rivestono nella costruzione dell’esposizione filosofica. Il commento, un’analisi puntuale della sezione dell’opuscolo 1086C- 1093C, approfondisce aspetti di carattere letterario e filosofico relativi al testo, evidenziando in particolare, sulla base di alcune categorie di analisi proposte da Roskam, in che modo Plutarco scelga, presenti e citi le argomentazioni epicuree in relazione al literary context polemico sotteso, al contentual context delle argomentazioni circostanti e alphilosophical context di riferimento. Benché si premuri di presentare il proprio opuscolo come un modello di confutazione (cfr. suav. viv. Epic. 1086D 6- 11), indicando la necessità, per chi voglia contestare un avversario, di attenersi ad un profondo rispetto per le affermazioni dell’altro, di fatto Plutarco nel prosieguo smentisce le proprie stesse asserzioni, costruendo una confutazione ispirata a criteri differenti: selezionate le argomentazioni epicuree più estremiste, le sottopone ad una semplificazione, trascurandone le sfumature teoriche o prospettando in relazione ad esse soltanto le conseguenze più radicali, omettendo invece riferimenti ad aspetti fondamentali ma poco suscettibili di polemica; estrapolati gli enunciati dal loro contesto originario, ne stravolge il senso con un utilizzo scaltro o inaccurato della terminologia epicurea, operando astute inserzioni al fine di screditare le posizioni dell’altro; l’inserimento di citazioni epicuree, in gran parte parafrasate, contribuisce a svalutare l’hJdonhv. Disattendendo ogni premessa di rigore metodologico, Plutarco non costruisce la sua contestazione sulla base di obiezioni fondate su un esame meditato ed obiettivo dell’essenza della dottrina epicurea, ma impiega stratagemmi poco ortodossi: rovesciamento degli argomenti contro gli avversari, distorsione del pensiero, intenzionale banalizzazione delle dottrine. Plutarco inoltre usa le armi della sottile ironia o dell’aperto sarcasmo per denigrare i suoi avversari, presentandoli come individui fatui ed arroganti, privi di garbo e misura, invidiosi e meschini, esclusivamente protesi verso il soddisfacimento dei bisogni più elementari e fanatici sostenitori di una dottrina riprovevole dagli esiti ridicoli, dei cui limiti essi stessi sarebbero fondamentalmente consapevoli. Tali stratagemmi cooperano a suscitare, nell’uditorio di Teone, ma anche nel lettore di Plutarco, una decisa presa di distanza dagli epicurei, relegando così sullo sfondo la vera e propria contestazione dottrinaria. La componente emotiva della confutazione si arricchisce inoltre di numerosi riferimenti alla comune esperienza e di appelli al buon senso che inducono l’uditorio, coinvolto nell’esposizione attraverso le funzioni fatiche del linguaggio, a concepire come insensati gli enunciati epicurei. La confutazione plutarchea si basa anche su un sapiente uso delle citazioni, riportate in forma letterale o parafrasata o semplicemente alluse, decontestualizzate e rifunzionalizzate nel nuovo contesto: esse contribuiscono a conferire vigore polemico alle argomentazioni. Accanto alle citazioni epicuree, che costituiscono parte integrante della struttura principale, trovano così posto anche citazioni di auctoritates filosofiche (Platone) o letterarie (Omero, i tragici) che sminuiscono le argomentazioni avversarie e legittimano la critica di Plutarco: un approccio intertestuale si è rivelato fondamentale. Particolare attenzione viene rivolta nel commento inoltre alle figure retoriche (omoteleuto, parallelismo, metafora, similitudine, anafora, uso di termini polisillabici o composti, allitterazione, assonanza, litote, antitesi), funzionali nell’opuscolo alla dimostrazione dell’incoerenza delle argomentazioni degli avversari. Plutarco non si mostra così fonte attendibile per poter ricostruire meglio il pensiero di Epicuro, benché sia spesso unico testimone di molti frammenti; il suo discorso denota una conoscenza approfondita delle dottrine avversarie ed è estremamente curato da un punto di vista formale, ma è animato dagli intenti chiaramente polemici di chi concepisce il sistema filosofico del Giardino come pericolosamente eversivo ed immorale...

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
This thesis raises and explores questions concerning the popularity of the Homeric poems in ancient Greece. It asks why the Iliad and Odyssey held such continuing appeal among the Greeks of the Archaic and Classical age. Cultural products such as poetry cannot be separated from the sociopolitical conditions in which and for which they were originally composed and received. Working on the basis that the extent of Homer’s appeal was inspired and sustained by the peculiar and determining historical circumstances, I set out to explore the relation of the social, political and ethical conditions and values of Archaic and Classical Greece to those portrayed in the Homeric poems. The Greeks, at the time during which Homer was composing his poems, had begun to establish a new form of social organisation: the polis. By examining historical, literary and philosophical texts from the Archaic and Classical age, I explore the manner in which Greek society attempted to reorganise and reconstitute itself in a different way, developing original modes of social and political activity which the new needs and goals of their new social reality demanded. I then turn to examine Homer’s treatment of and response to this social context, and explore the various ways in which Homer was able to reinterpret and reinvent the inherited stories of adventure and warfare in order to compose poetry that not only looks back to the highly centralised and bureaucratic society of the Mycenaean world, but also looks forward, insistently so, to the urban reality of the present. I argue that Homer’s conflation of a remembered mythical age with the contemporary conditions and values of Archaic and Classical Greece aroused in his audiences a new perception and understanding of human existence in the altered sociopolitical conditions of the polis and, in so doing, ultimately contributed to the development of new ideas on the manner in which the Greeks could best live together in their new social world.

In this thesis, I examine the rhetorical strategies in Jenn Schiffer’s satirical conference talks in which she comments upon her own tech community. In part, I consider her arguments under the theoretical lenses of Burke, Epicurus, and Camus, theories placed alongside the reflective writing of Ullman as a queer woman in that selfsame community. I also discuss the pedagogical opportunities of such an analysis–of tech conference talks in general–to the modern student in our technologically-connected age. Finally, in the long term, I plan to connect the outcomes of this project to a larger project in partial fulfillment of a doctorate degree in Information Science, a project which will investigate the feedback loops between policy, software development, users of information and communications technology (ICT), and humanistic self-expression.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
This thesis combines a philosophical interpretation of Epicurean attitudes to language with literary analysis of the language of DRN. Chapters 1-2 describe Epicurean attitudes to diachronic and synchronic linguistic phenomena. In the first chapter I claim that the Epicurean account of the first stage of the development of language involves pre-rational humans acting under a ‘strong’ form of compulsion. The analogies with which Lucretius describes this process were motivated by a structural similarity between the Epicurean accounts of phylogenetic and ontogenetic psychology. Chapter 2 explores the Epicurean account of word use and recognition, central to which are ‘conceptions’. These are attitudes which express propositions; they are not mental images. Προλήψεις, a special class of conception, are self-evidently true basic beliefs about how objects in the world are categorized which, alongside the non-doxastic criteria of perceptions and feelings, play a foundational role in enquiry. Chapter 3 offers a reconstruction of an Epicurean theory of metaphor. Metaphor, for Epicureans, involves the subordination of additional conceptions to words to create secondary meanings. Secondary meanings are to be understood by referring back to primary meanings. Accordingly, Lucretius’ use of metaphor regularly involves the juxtaposition in the text of primary and secondary uses of terms. An account of conceptual metaphor in DRN is given in which the various conceptual domains from which Lucretius draws his metaphorical language are mapped and explored. Chapter 4 presents a new argument against ‘atomological’ readings of Lucretius’ atoms/letters analogies. Lucretian implicit etymologies involve the illustration, via juxtaposition, of language change across time. This is fully in keeping with the Epicurean account of language development. Chapter 5 describes Lucretius’ reflections on and interactions with the Greek language. I suggest that the study of lexical Hellenisms in DRN must be sensitive to the distinction between lexical borrowing and linguistic code-switching. I then give an account of morphological calquing in the poem, presenting it as a significant but overlooked strategy for Lucretian vocabulary-formation.

This thesis compares the interaction of philosophy and literature in Plato and Lucretius. It argues that Plato influenced Lucretius directly, and that this connection increases the interest in comparing them. In the Introduction, I propose that a work of philosophical literature, such as the De Rerum Natura or a Platonic dialogue, cannot be fully understood or appreciated unless both the literary and the philosophical elements are taken into account. In Chapter 1, I examine the tradition of literature and philosophy in which Plato and Lucretius were writing. I argue that the historical evidence increases the likelihood that Lucretius read Plato. Through consideration of parallels between the DRN and the dialogues, I argue that Plato discernibly influenced the DRN. In Chapter 2, I extract a theory of philosophical literature from the Phaedrus, which prompts us to appreciate it as a work of literary art inspired by philosophical knowledge of the Forms. I then analyse Socrates’ ‘prelude’ at Republic IV.432 as an example of how the dialogue’s philosophical and literary teaching works in practice. In Chapters 3 and 4, I consider the treatment of natural philosophy in the Timaeus and DRN II. The ending of the Timaeus is arguably an Aristophanically inspired parody of the zoogonies of the early natural philosophers. This links it to other instances of parody in Plato’s dialogues. DRN II.333-380 involves an argument about atomic variety based on Epicurus, but also, through the image of the world ‘made by hand’, alludes polemically to the intelligently designed world of the Timaeus. Through an examination of Plato’s and Lucretius’ polemical adaptation of their predecessors, I argue that even the most seemingly technical passages of the DRN and the Timaeus still depend upon literary techniques for their full effect. The Conclusion reflects briefly on future paths of investigation.

Que signifie repenser l’Histoire littéraire et l’Histoire du roman comme Histoire culturelle ? Le point de départ de notre questionnement sur les formes de représentation adoptées par l’Histoire littéraire porte sur la doxa critique selon laquelle il existe une relation génétique entre l’épopée et le roman, dont la source se trouve dans ce qu’il est convenu de voir comme le texte fondateur de la littérature, l’épopée d’Homère et celui de la théorie littéraire, la Poétique d’Aristote. Si l’épopée homérique est une œuvre de la tradition orale, quelle est sa relation avec le roman, issu, lui, de la scripturalité et de l’émergence de la prose ? Si les récits en prose narrative de fiction apparaissent dans des civilisations sans épopée, quelle est la condition nécessaire pour leur émergence ? Si, de plus, l’apparition d’une prose narrative de fiction est précédée de plusieurs siècles de celle d’une historiographie et que ce phénomène se répète aussi bien dans la Grèce classique qu’au Moyen Âge européen, ou encore en Chine, quelle est la condition nécessaire pour l’essor du roman ? Nous présentons ici l’ébauche d’une Histoire alternative des origines du roman dans la Weltliteratur, en relation avec l’émergence de la scripturalité et la prose et l’essor de l’historiographie À la croisée de plusieurs disciplines académiques, notamment entre les sciences humaines et sociales, notre recherche fait appel d’une part à la théorie et à l’Histoire de la littérature, d’autre part à l’Histoire de l’historiographie, ainsi qu’à la théorie et la philosophie de l’HistoireIs it possible to rethink Literary History and in particular the History of the Novel as Cultural History which seeks to differentiate between an historical object and it’s representation? Considering the critical doxa, according to which, there exists a genetic link between epics and the novel, leads to one of Western thinking’s most stubborn myths. If epics, and particularly Homer’s, is seen as the novel’s ascendant , although it belongs to oral tradition, how does it explain the fact that as Ancient civilizations as Egypt or China or Israel developed sophisticated prose narratives without having epics? Moreover, if Western literary history refers to Aristotle’s Poetics as it’s foundational text, although by the time it was written, fictional prose didn’t exist yet, and was only to develop a few centuries later, shouldn’t we seek for the missing link between the oral tradition and the rise of the novel? As against this hegemonic and unhistorical representation that considers the novel genre as a Western invention, and as opposed to the historical circumstances that gave birth to the novel, we consider that the key to understanding this phenomenon lies in the emergence of literacy and prose. Indeed, in all civilizations that developed fictional prose writing, it was systematically preceded, not by epics, but by historiography. Our PHD dissertation presents an alternative History of the novel, whose angle is intercultural and interdisciplinary, aiming at recreating a new chronology of the emergence of the novel as a an inevitable historical genre in world’s literature

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
Les épopées d’Homère et de Virgile, la Chanson de Roland sont marquées par une alternance qui peut paraître capricieuse. En fait, on la saisit beaucoup mieux dès lors qu’on prend en compte la présence des corps : ceux du jongleur, de l’aède, du récitant ; le corps du public. Postures, gestuelle, mouvements, regard, souffle, musique s’articulent à cette alternance pour en faire une véritable danse. Cette thèse étudie d’abord comment dansent chacun des temps principaux du récit dans ces épopées, en accordant la priorité à Homère et au Roland ; puis elle étudie comment cette danse des temps prend corps dans chacune des petites pièces dont nous décelons que sont composées les épopées anciennes comme le Roland : les laissesThe Homeric and Virgilian epics, as well as the Chanson de Roland are full of tenseswitching, the use of which might seem capricious to the modern reader. It is in fact much better understood when bodies’ presence is taken into account — these bodies being the bard’s one as well as the audience’s. Postures, gestures, moves, eyes, breath, music are joint partners to tenseswitching, so that tenses really dance in epics. This study is firstly about how each one of the main narrative tenses dances in Homer and the Roland, and also in the Æneid. Then it studies the way tenses dance in each of the small pieces we find in the classical epics as well as in the Roland : the laisses

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
Pour montrer la richesse des représentations poétiques de la mer, l’époque augustéenne constitue un moment clef. Avec la bataille d’Actium, la mer occupe une place nouvelle à Rome et devient un enjeu majeur, lieu de victoires et de pouvoir dans le discours d’Auguste et dans l’imaginaire romain, à un moment de refondation aussi bien politique que morale de la cité après les guerres civiles. C’est la manière dont cet objet s’est constitué en tant que catalyseur de toutes les grandes mutations de l’époque augustéenne qui retient notre attention. Nous étudions la mer comme locus, c’est-à-dire comme un objet poétique susceptible de refléter ou de modifier le lieu réel où l’activité humaine se déploie durant l’histoire grecque et romaine, mais aussi les représentations socioculturelles. Dans notre première partie, nous entreprenons une comparaison des rapports à la mer chez les Grecs et les Romains, dans leur histoire, leurs mentalités et leur littérature. Il apparaît que d’un point de vue axiologique, si la mer des poètes augustéens reçoit un traitement négatif en grande partie influencé par la poésie grecque, ce motif est enrichi d’un élément inédit : la condamnation de la navigation. Reliée aux guerres et à la luxuria, elle s’inspire chez les poètes augustéens d’une synthèse entre les influences de la philosophie grecque et de la morale traditionnelle : elle devient le lieu d’expression des passions humaines, depuis la cupidité jusqu’à la colère du Prince. Mais les poètes augustéens ont aussi été sensibles à l’héritage grec du motif épique de la mer : Virgile, dans l’Énéide, élabore à partir des modèles grecs un héroïsme nouveau, adapté à l’arrière-plan culturel romain, où prime la pietas, dans des errances où les épreuves maritimes sont systématiquement désamorcées. Ovide, dans ses Métamorphoses, relit Virgile pour déconstruire cette mer de la fabrique des héros et proposer une nouvelle représentation de la mer, miroir de la Pax Augusta. Pourtant, c’est l’élégie qui, en transférant toute ses ambiguïtés au locus marin, en fait le mieux le miroir troublant des changements politiques et des mutations morales que connaît Rome au début du Principat : la réélaboration élégiaque du motif épique de la mer est l’occasion du questionnement et de la réaffirmation des valeurs du mos maiorum, d’expérimentations génériques et surtout de la construction d’un nouvel héroïsme en mer, celui d’Auguste à ActiumTo show the richness of the poetic representations of the sea, the Augustan epoch is considered a key period. With the battle of Actium, the sea holds a new place in Rome and becomes a major stake, place of victories and power in the speech of Augustus and in the Roman imagination, during a political and moral city rebuilding after the civil wars. It is the way this object was established as a catalyst of all the great changes of the Augustan period that holds our attention. We study the sea as locus, that is to say as a poetic object likely to reflect or modify the real place where the human activity spreads out during the Greek and Roman history, but also the socio-cultural representations. In our first part, we undertake a comparison of the relationships with the sea for Greeks and Romans, in their history, their mentalities and their literature. It appears that from an axiological point of view, if the sea of Augustan poets receives a negative treatment as in Greek poetry, this pattern is enriched by a previously unseen element: the navigation condemnation. Linked with war and luxuria, it is inspired for the Augustan poets by a synthesis between the influences of Greek philosophy and traditional morality: it becomes the place of expression of the human passions, from greed to anger of the Prince. But the Augustan poets have also carried the Greek heritage of the epic motif of the sea Virgil, in the Aeneid, develops from the Greek models a new heroism, adapted to the Roman cultural background, where the pietas takes the central part through wanderings where sea trials are systematically undone. Ovid, in his Metamorphoses, rereads Virgil to deconstruct this sea of heroes and to build a new representation of the sea, mirror of the Pax Augusta. However, the elegy, as the most ambiguous genre, introduces the most original and complex vision of the marine locus. Elegiac poets makes it the most disturbing mirror of the political changes and moral mutations that Rome experienced at the beginning of the Principate: the elegiacre-elaboration of the epic motif of the sea is an opportunity to question and reaffirm the values of the mos maiorum, generic experiments and especially the construction of a new heroism at sea, that of Augustus to Actium

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
This dissertation examines the relationship between sympotic and rhapsodic discourses and the Homeric epics and specifically considers how an understanding of sympotic discourse can affect an external audience’s perception of events within the narrative. Heroic feasting is examined and defined as an activity which signifies different attitudes and aesthetics than the symposium. Yet a case is made for the possibility that Greek people are practicing symposia at a time when rhapsodes – the creative composers-in-performance of the epics – would have been freely incorporating material from the contemporary world into their performances. This is a period of time extending over much of the 7th century, and perhaps even into some time before and after. I analyze both the symposium and rhapsodic performances as discourses, using literary, archaeological, epigraphic, and iconographic evidence to define markers – certain signs, gestures, attitudes, accoutrement, and behavior specific to each – of each discourse. By treating the symposium and rhapsodic performances as discourses with their own markers, I establish a methodology with which to examine certain passages of the epics and the implicit meanings conveyed in them. Odysseus is thus shown to be manipulating sympotic discourse in the Phaeacian episodes of the Odyssey in order to win a favorable return home – at least as the contemporary external audience familiar with sympotic conventions of speaking and behaving would have understood it. Achilles too is treated, with specific reference to his behavior in the embassy scene of the Iliad. The sympotic discourse conveyed by the actions and attitudes of Achilles and Patroclus can be shown to communicate additional layers of meaning to the external audience and perhaps reference extra-Iliadic motifs concerning Achilles’ behavior at symposia. A proper understanding of rhapsodic and sympotic discourses within the epics not only contributes to a more nuanced understanding of character behavior within the epics and audiences’ perception of such behavior, but also challenges our understanding of the role of archaic social institutions such as the symposium within the epics.

The hypothesis that the Homeric epics are the products of a formulaic mode
of composition characteristic of an oral tradition has for the iast fifty years
dominated Homeric research. The theories of Milman Parry and his
followers have undoubtedly expanded our understanding of some of the
processes which make composition possible. But these same theories, in
arguing for a text produced by a tradition, and not by a creative poet, have
frustrated the scholar who wishes to come to terms with the epics as great
works in themselves, as compositions which have long had the capacity to
exci te and involve their audiences.
As a corrective, therefore, to Parry's influence, which scarcely permits us to
go beyond a text-based analysis of Homer's verses, I propose that we consider
the poems from another perspective. This is a perspective suggested by
recent work in several disciplines - in cognitive science, psychology, and
sociolinguistics - in which stories have been examined not as text per se , but
as the products of an activity which might be described as mind-based and
audience-orientated. Cognitive psychology offers us a theoretical framework
within which we can reconstruct the processes by which a poet composes his
story, even as he performs. A study of the pragmatics of storytelling, on the
other hand, allows us to appreciate story as a medium of communication in
which the storyteller, at every stage of composition, and in order to serve his
own purposes, is responsive to the needs and expectations of his audience.
I attempt to demonstrate how these theories about stories and the shaping of
stories enhance our appreciation not only of the processes by which the
Homeric epics might have been composed but also of the action described
within the storyworlds which they evoke. My aim is not to overturn current
views of Homer; rather, I shall suggest that, in the light of so much
empirical work on narrative, it is possible today to rationalize and synthesize
them in the interests of a more coherent understanding of these great
poems. I shall suggest that many of the features of the Homeric epics (such
as foreshadowing and the repetition of type-scenes, or the irony which we
find throughout the Odyssey) may be described and explained in terms both
of the cognitive processes which have been activated and of the social
interaction itself, the focus of which for the moment is the storytelling; and
that most of these are common to storytelling practice as we know it today. My principal objective, however, has been to use these new theories to
structure a careful re-reading of the epics, to explore certain passages
afresh, and to throw further light on the techniques of a fine storyteller who
understands his craft.
