Paperback. Condition: New. As scholars have remarked, the word kleos in the Iliad and the Odyssey alike refers to something more substantive and complex than "fame" or "glory." Kleos distinctly supposes an oral narrative-principally an "oral history," a "life story" or ultimately an "oral tradition." When broken down into its twin constituents, "words" and "actions" or "deeds," a hero's kleos serves to define him as a fully gendered social being.This book is a meditation on this concept as expressed and experienced in the adult society Telemachos find himself in. Kleos is the yardstick by which his psychological change was appreciated by Homer's audiences. As this book shows through philological and interdisciplinary analysis, Prince Telemachos grows up in the course of the Telemachy and arguably even beyond (in book 24): his education, which is conceived largely as an apprenticeship on land and sea, admits him gradually if unevenly to a full-fledged adult kleos-a kleos that nonetheless necessarily remains minor in comparison to that of his father and other elders.…

Paperback. Condition: Gut. XIV, 171 p. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - leicht berieben, Bleistiftnotiz auf Schmutztitel, sonst sehr gut und sauber / slightly rubbed, pencil note on half title, otherwise very good and clean. - As scholars have remarked, the word kleos in the Iliad and the Odyssey alike refers to something more substantive and complex than 'fame' or 'glory'. In the Odyssey, 'glory' may be ascribed to a hero or even a heroine for far more reasons than in the Iliad. Either way, k/eos distinctly supposes an oral narrative--principally an 'oral history', a 'life story' or ultimately an 'oral tradition'. When broken down into its twin constituents, 'words' and 'actions' or 'deeds', a hero's Ideas serves to define him as a fully gendered social being. This book is a meditation on this concept as expressed and experienced in the adult society Telemachos finds himself in. K/eos is the yardstick by which his psychological change, nowadays acknowledged by most specialists, was appreciated by Homer's audiences. As this book shows through philological and interdisciplinary analysis, Prince Telemachos grows up in the course of the Telemachy and arguably even beyond (in book 24): his education, which is conceived largely as an apprenticeship on land and sea, admits him gradually if unevenly to a full-fledged adult kleos--a kleos that nonetheless necessarily remains minor in comparison to that of his father and other elders. / Contents Foreword by Gregory Nagy Author's Prologue Acknowledgments Chapter 1: Kleos and Oral History Chapter 2: Kleos and Oral News Chapter 3: Kleos and Social Identity Chapter 4: The Little Prince's Voyage in a Borrowed Ship Chapter 5: Of Beards and Boar Hunts, or, Coming of Age in the Odyssey Chapter 6: The End of the Telemachy: The Culmination of Extinction?

Duckworth, London, 2003. XIII,206p. ills.(B&W photographs). Cloth. Small personal library mark and name on free endpaper. Ancient Greek poetry, even at its most sophisticated, presupposed a degree of familiarity with and assimilation of many more elementary types of song. The continuous if uneven interplay between high-flown literature, on the one hand, and sub-literary popular oral song types, on the other, cannot be underestimated in any account of ancient Greek poetry. In Eroticism in Ancient and Medieval Greek Poetry , John Petropoulos discusses the features of ancient Greek poetry, particularly amatory poetry, that can be attributed to the influence of popular song and, conversely, looks at how 'higher' poetry affected 'lower' genres in antiquity and medieval times. He goes on to investigate the relation between certain types of modern Greek folk song and their medieval - even ancient - predecessors. Concentrating on four cases that illuminate the evolution of the imagery, motifs and formal traits of love songs, this wide-ranging interdisciplinary study will be of interest to classicists and non-classicists alike, and particularly those concerned with popular eroticism and the colourful history of love songs in the Greek world. (Editor's information). From the library of the late Sir Kenneth James Dover.…
