DJ has laminate lifting to part rear lower edge.; Metapoetry in Euripides is the first detailed study of the self-conscious literary devices applied within Euripidean drama and how these are interwoven with issues of thematic importance whether social theological or political. In the volume Torrance argues that Euripides employed a complex system of metapoetic strategies in order to draw the audience's attention to the novelty of his compositions. The metapoetic strategies discussed include intertextual allusions to earlier poetic texts especially to Homer Aeschylus and Sophocles which are often developed around unusual and memorable language or imagery deployment of recognizable trigger words referring to plot construction novelties or secondary status and self-conscious references to fiction implied through allusion to writing. Torrance also looks at and compares metapoetic techniques used in tragedy satyr-drama and old comedy to demonstrate that the Greek tragedians commonly exploited metapoetic strategies and that metapoetry is more pervasive in Euripides than in the other tragedians. While Euripides shares some metapoetic techniques with old comedy these remain implicit in his tragedies but not in his satyr-dramas.; 384 pages . 0199657831 . Oxford University Press hardcover

202037472University of Michigan Press. 2020. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine in Fine dust jacket. Lyric Poetry and Social Identity in Archaic Greece examines how Greek men presented themselves and their social groups to one another. The author examines identity rhetoric in sympotic lyric: how Greek poets constructed images of self for their groups focusing in turn on the construction of identity in martial-themed poetry the protection of group identities in the face of political exile and the negotiation between individual and group as seen in political lyric. By conducting a close reading of six poems and then a broad survey of martial lyric exile poetry political lyric and sympotic lyric as a whole Jessica Romney demonstrates that sympotic lyric focuses on the same basic behaviors and values to construct social identities regardless of the content or subgenre of the poems in question. The volume also argues that the performance of identity depends on the context as well as the material of performance. Furthermore the book demonstrates that sympotic lyric overwhelmingly prefers to use identity rhetoric that insists on the inherent sameness of group members.; 6 X 1 X 9 inches; 264 pages . 0472131850 .

200227625University of Michigan Press. 2002. Hardcover. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. Minor shelfwear. Dustjacket is protected in mylar.; The Homeric poems were not intended for readers but for a listening audience. Traditional in their basic elements the stories were learned by oral poets from earlier poets and recreated at every performance. Individual nuances tailored to the audience could creep into the stories of the Greek heroes on each and every occasion when a bard recited the epics. For a particular audience at a particular moment "tradition" is what it believes it has inherited from the past--and it may not be particularly old. The boundaries between the traditional and the innovative may become blurry and indistinct. By rethinking tradition we can see Homer's methods and concerns in a new light. The Homeric poet is not naive. He must convince his audience that the story is true. He must therefore seem disinterested unconcerned with promoting anyone's interests. The poet speaks as if everything he says is merely the repetition of old tales. Yet he carefully ensures that even someone who knows only a minimal amount about the ancient heroes can follow and enjoy the performance while someone who knows many stories will not remember inappropriate ones. Pretending that every detail is already familiar the poet heightens suspense and implies that ordinary people are the real judges of great heroes. Listening to Homer transcends present controversies about Homeric tradition and invention by rethinking how tradition functions. Focusing on reception rather than on composition Ruth Scodel argues that an audience would only rarely succeed in identifying narrative innovation. Homeric narrative relies on a traditionalizing inclusive rhetoric that denies the innovation of the oral performance while providing enough information to make the epics intelligible to audiences for whom much of the material is new. Listening to Homer will be of interest to general classicists as well as to those specializing in Greek epic and narrative performance. Its wide breadth and scope will also appeal to those non-classicists interested in the nature of oral performance.; 1.25 x 9.75 x 6.75 Inches; 248 pages . 0472112651 .
