Paperback. Condition: New. Eve of the Festival is a study of Homeric myth-making in the first and longest dialogue of Penelope and Odysseus (Odyssey 19). This study makes a case for seeing virtuoso myth-making as an essential part of this conversation, a register of communication important for the interaction between the two spe…akers. At the core of the book is a detailed examination of several myths in the dialogue in an attempt to understand what is being said and how. The dialogue as a whole is interpreted as an exchange of performances that have the eve of Apollo's festival as their occasion and that amount to activating, and even enacting, the myth corresponding within the Odyssey to the ritual event of the festival.

Original brochure. Condition: Gut. Hellenic Studies 46. 368 p. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Condition: Slightly gappy binding, otherwise in very good condition. / Zustand: Leicht klaffender Einband, ansonsten im sehr guten Zu…stand. - Content: This book is about the poetics of myth in a single Homeric conversation, the dialogue between Penelope and Odysseus in Odyssey 19, their first, longest, and most enigmatic exchange of words. My interest in the way myth functions in oral poetry precedes my interest in the dialogue and goes beyond it, but making general theoretical claims on the subject is not the primary goal of the current work. Rather, this is an applied endeavor, an attempt not only to illustrate the workings of myth in Homer, but also to study a particular episode through a mythological lens and to gain interpretive ground in this way. The scene I have chosen for my test case has received its share of scholarly attention and has been viewed as everything from a compositional low point to a masterpiece of indeterminacy. Interpretations have changed dramatically over the last hundred years, and in my opinion much for the better, so that at the moment the treatment of dialogue constitutes a good example of advances in Homeric scholarship. The study of Homeric genres of discourse, voices, conversational patterns, and properties of spoken word has been something of a growth industry in recent decades, with the result that the old subject of speeches in Homer has emerged in a completely new light. Questions of disguise, identity, recognition, coded speech, knowledge, and ignorance have also been at the center of Odyssean studies. As one of the longest sustained conversations in Homer, especially interesting for its interlocutors of different genders, the dialogue has become a battleground and a test case for these scholarly trends. More than that, the scene in Book 19 is also arguably the moment of Penelopes most crucial decision in the poem, and accordingly has attracted the attention of scholars interested in questions of agency in general and female agency in particular. Important work on gender and gendered poetics in the Odyssey has also focused on the dialogue, not surprisingly, since this is the scene where Penelope says more about herself than anywhere else. In short, there is no shortage of excellent and compelling scholarship on the very scene I propose to discuss, and I can make no pretences here about correcting past wrongs or restoring an overlooked subject to its proper place under the sun. The dialogue has not, to my knowledge, been analyzed from the particular angle I adopt, but this only partly justifies my decision to focus on this well-studied scene. Primarily I venture to write about it because, for all the unquestionable scholarly advances, the episode remains among the most mysterious in the Odyssey, its mysteries perhaps deepened rather than resolved by recent scholarship. Several factors make the interpretation of the dialogue so complicated. For one thing, Penelope and Odysseus do not speak plainly, but in hints, coded messages, and multi-layered statements, Odysseus physical disguise as a beggar being only one of many levels of concealment and revelation that come into play as the couple talk. Introducing the stranger, Eumaeus prepares Penelope for someone who speaks like a poet, a master of words, a person whose power of speech is enchanting (Odyssey 17.518-521). For his part, Odysseus observes Penelope with the suitors and concludes that she says one thing but hides another meaning underneath, and that she too has the power to charm with words (Odyssey 18.281-283). When the two meet, they put their impressive powers of verbal art to full use, engaging in an exchange of performances, in fact a dialogue in performances, where each interlocutor is fully able to appreciate the others skills. Indirect, allusive, enigmatic, powerful, and manipulative disc.
