GREEK POETICS OF TIME AND SPACE

Collection : Textes à l'appui / Histoire classique
Release date : 06/04/2006

Greek conceptions of time have often been studied from a philosophical angle: circular time, enclosure of the mythical world, division between sacred and profane. What however, was the Ancient Greek outlook? Delving in various poetic sources (Hésiode, Bacchylide, etc.), Claude Calame takes an anthropological approach and brings to light an aspect of the collective Greek memory that reveals astounding powers of symbolic creation.
