Abstract:
AbstractThis paper analyses the presence of elements of invective (ψγος) in the Dionysiaca by Nonnus of Panopolis, who follows in general terms the structure of the βασιλικς λγος or imperial encomium. It contends that Nonnus uses invective to balance the panegyric and mock the genre in which he works.

Abstract:
The forty-first book of Nonnus' Dionysiaca takes as its central theme Beroë, the sea nymph identified with the city of Beirut in Phoenicia (modern-day Lebanon). Nonnus associates Beroë closely with Amymone. She is pursued sexually by both Dionysus and Poseidon, with the latter proving victorious, a story which Nonnus recounts in the next book of his poem. In Book 41, however, the narrative focuses upon the foundation of the city and Beroë’s birth. Nonnus initially dwells on Beirut's geographical setting and its first inhabitants, before turning to the birth of Aphrodite, who is said to arrive first at Beirut, not Cythera or Cyprus as in other accounts (Nonnus, Dion. 41.97–119).

Abstract:
This thesis is a narratological study of Nonnus of Panopolis' Dionysiaca, focussing on the figure of the narrator whose interventions reveal much about his relationship to his predecessors and his own conception of story-telling. Although he presents himself as a follower of Homer, whom he mentions by name in his poem, the Dionysiaca are clearly influenced by a much wider range of sources of inspiration. The study of narratological interventions brings to light the narrator's relationship with Homer, between imitation and innovation. The way he renews and transforms epic narratorial devices attests to his literary skills as he strives for ποικιλία in his poem. His interventions hint at sources of inspiration other than Homer, such as lyric poetry, historiography, and didactic epic. Another innovation is the way the narrator intervenes not to draw the narratee's attention to the contents of his text, but to underline his own role as story-teller. Some interventions signal a change in tone or the integration of another genre; the expected proems and invocations to the Muse become spaces for a display of ingeniousness, a discussion of the sources and a reflection on the role of the poet. The efforts made by the Nonnian narrator to renew well known devices also denotes his mindfulness of his narratee, whom he involves in the story through metaleptic devices, or by drawing on a shared cultural background to enhance the narrative with allusions to extradiegetic references. The study of narratorial interventions proves that the Dionysiaca were not written only in an attempt to recreate a Homeric epic, but are a compendium of influences, genres, and myths, encompassing the influence of a thousand years of Greek literature.

Esta pesquisa pretende discutir a forma com que Dioniso foi transformado em herói épico nas Dionisíacas de Nono de Panópolis, uma epopeia em quarenta e oito cantos sobre o ciclo de Dioniso, desde a fundação de Tebas e o estabelecimento de seus antepassados à apoteose olímpica do deus. A análise será baseada nas características de Dioniso no campo de batalha e em oposição aos três principais adversários no poema, Licurgo, Deríades e Penteu. Para uma melhor compreensão da construção de Dioniso como herói, é necessária uma análise sobre o contexto social e cultural em que Nono compõe sua obra, assim como a relação do poeta com Homero, o principal poeta épico grego. Em anexo encontram-se os cantos XXXIX e XL das Dionisíacas em original grego e na tradução feita por mim.<br>This research intend to discuss the way Dionysus was transformed into epic hero in Nonnus Dionysiaca, an epic in forty-eight chants concerning the Dionysian Cycle, from the foundation of Thebes and the establishment of their ancestors to the Olympic apotheosis of the god.

For a better understanding of the construction of Dionysus as a hero, an analysis is needed on the social and cultural context in which Nono composes his poem, as well as the poet\'s relationship with Homer, the Greek main epic poet.

Abstract:
Dans ce travail, nous proposons une étude de la poétique des Dionysiaques de Nonnos de Panopolis qui tient compte des critères esthétiques en vigueur dans l’Antiquité tardive. Pour cela, nous prenons pour point de départ les images du monstre et de la mosaïque, parce qu’elles cristallisent le goût de l’époque pour la fragmentation et l’accumulation. Ces deux caractéristiques se retrouvent à la fois dans le jeweled style (M. Roberts) et la spatial form (J. Frank), deux concepts développés à partir d’une comparaison avec les arts visuels et destinés à expliquer des esthétiques non classiques comme celle de Nonnos. Nous menons d’abord une étude de la temporalité du récit pour montrer que la picturalité est au centre de son art : non seulement le poète disloque la séquence temporelle, mais surtout il donne la primauté au mode descriptif. Tout son récit est fragmenté en une série de miniatures, comme celles que l’on trouve sur les mosaïques. L’épopée nonnienne exige donc le même type de lecture, à savoir la lecture thématique. Nous explorons ensuite ce deuxième aspect en étudiant les références internes qui dessinent une véritable architecture paradigmatique à l’intérieur de l’œuvre : les épisodes en écho se réécrivent les uns les autres selon une poétique de la métamorphose. Enfin, nous nous intéressons au caractère composite et cumulatif des Dionysiaques en le mettant en parallèle avec la pratique du remploi en architecture et en art : Nonnos conçoit son récit comme un empilement de blocs parmi lesquels il peut intégrer des fragments des œuvres de ses prédécesseurs, valorisant ainsi une hétérogénéité irréductible<br>This thesis aims at studying the poetics of Nonnus’ Dionysiaca according to the principles of late antique aesthetic. As a starting point, we consider the images of the monster and the mosaics because they illustrate the then current tendencies towards fragmentation and accumulation. These two characteristics are part of both jeweled style (M. Roberts) and spatial form (J. Frank), which were based on a comparison with visual arts and designed to explain non classical aesthetics such as Nonnus’. First of all, we study the temporal organization of the narrative and show that picturality lies at the core of his art : Nonnus not only dislocates the narrative sequence, but he also gives the primacy to the descriptive mode. The whole narrative is fragmented into a series of miniatures just like a mosaic. Therefore Nonnus’ epic calls for the same kind of reading, i.e. the thematic reading. We then turn to an analysis of the internal references which are the key to a paradigmatic architecture inside the poem : echoing episodes are rewritten according to the poetics of metamorphosis. Lastly, we are concerned with the composite and cumulative aspect of the Dionysiaca, which can be paralleled with the use of spolia in architecture and art : Nonnus conceives of his narrative as a stacking of blocks among which he can insert fragments of former works — a way to advertise an irreducible heterogeneity

Abstract:
Nonnus of Panopolis’ works show in striking fashion the interplay between the worlds of Greek paganism and traditional Greek paideia and that of rising Christianity: his Dionysiaca continues and indeed may be said to sum up the tradition of the Greek epic poem; his Paraphrase of the Gospel of John applies a traditional Greek literary form to one of the founding texts of Christianity. Recent scholarly work shows the fluidity and complexity of the Christian and pagan influence in Late Antiquity. Scholars have demonstrated the influence of Greek epic and other verse works on the Dionysiaca, influences reaching from Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey to Apollonius Rhodius’ Argonautica, Callimachus’ Hymns and Quintus Smyrnaeus’ Fall of Troy, as well as the Greek Anthology. Scholars have also explored the relationship of the Dionysiaca to prose works of the second and third centuries of the Common Era. Frangoulis has convincingly demonstrated the influence of the ancient Greek novel, specifically of the Sophistic Novel, on certain episodes of Nonnus’ fifth-century epic (Hélène Frangoulis: Du roman à l’épopée, Besançon, 2014). One of the most interesting Greek prose writers under the Roman Empire is Philostratus the Elder, the writer who coined the term “Second Sophistic”. This term is used to describe a flowering of Greek literary culture in the second and third centuries and in turn has led to the description “sophistic novel” given in our time to the works of Longus, Achilles Tatius and Heliodorus. Philostratus’ own work is no longer usually numbered among the novels, yet it shares many of their characteristics. This in itself justifies a close examination of the work in the light of the Dionysiaca. Furthermore, there are elements in Philostratus which immediately suggest a possible connection between the two works. In Philostratus, there is an overarching concern with Greek paideia which is also evident throughout the Dionysiaca. More specifically, in both the Vita Apollonii (VA) and the Imagines considerable space is given to Dionysus, his cult and his following. In the VA, as in Nonnus’ epic, we have Indian wars, gods interfering in the life of humans, a great interest in omens and divination and a particular fascination with the figure of Proteus. Ekphrasis is prominent in both the Dionysiaca and the VA, while the Imagines is a collection of ekphrases of pictures in a gallery. Scholars have long noted specific instances of similarity between the Dionysiaca and Philostratus’ works, but there has not hitherto been a systematic investigation into the extent and nature of the relationship between them. In this project, we have compared the VA and Imagines with the Dionysiaca, particularly concentrating on those areas that are common in prominence in the works of both writers: Proteus as emblematic of the literary agenda in the VA and the Dionysiaca; poikilia as a key technique and unifying aesthetic in all three works. The conclusion of the research is that, although Philostratus is only occasionally a dominant and recognisable source in Nonnus' epic, there are intriguing synergies between the works in many matters of detail as well as in a broader aesthetic. Philostratus in the Imagines and the VA and Nonnus in the Dionysiaca also demonstrate a common adherence to poikilia, not only as a feature of their respective works, but indeed as a hallmark of them. The importance of this to both is evidenced by their use of the figure of Proteus in the Dionysiaca and the VA. There are clear overlaps of taste and sensibility, particularly in the use of colour and particularly, but not exclusively in ekphrastic passages. The numerous examples of coincidences of detail between the works that are consistent with Nonnus being familiar with Philostratus’ works and with his taking such details for use in his own poem, just as he seems to do with many other writers and are suggestive of a closer connection than merely shared heritage and aesthetics.
