199533331Oxford University Press. 1995. Hardcover. Fine in Very Good dust jacket. Review of book tipped in. Dustjacket has faint creasing; 0.85 x 9.32 x 6.32 Inches; 240 pages; Theseus is celebrated as the greatest of Athenian heroes. This work explores what he meant to the Athenians at the height of their city-state in the fifth century B. C. Assembling material that has been scattered in scholarly works Henry Walker examines the evidence for the development of themyth and cult of Theseus in the archaic age. He then looks to major works of classical literature in which Theseus figures exploring the contradictions between the archaic primitive side of his character and his refurbished image as the patron of democracy. His ambiguous nature as outsider flouting accepted standards of behavior while at the same time being a hero-king and a representative of higher ideals is analyzed through his representations in the work of Bacchylides Euripides and Sophocles. This is the only work of scholarship that examines the literary representation ofTheseus so thoroughly. It brings to life a literary character whose virtues flaws and contradictions belong in no less a degree to his creators the people of Athens. . 0195089081 . Oxford University Press hardcover
