Full textThis problem is to know what is Hesiod’s representation of speech, and in which way he integrates his own poetic speech in this view. The study is made up of four parts. The first two present the semantic and stylistic documents. It is to be noted that Hesiod gives an original touch to the homeric texts he uses to introduce new meanings. The poet has no general view of speech: the human way of speaking is defective, and comes second to situations. Reversely the gods'speech precedes actions. The third development reconstitutes the history of this difference between men's and gods' ways of speaking. In the theogony, considered as a kind of world "history", different series of expressions are collected and compared. It appears that in the past, men and gods spoke the same language, which men lost in the course of a long process of separation from gods, the end of which being the myth of prometheus. Their voice is now conform to their mortal destiny, which is not original. The myths in the works and days are in accordance with these conclusions. The fourth section studies the way hesiod tells of his job. It appears that the muses give him back the ancient voice. . Which permits him to reveal the truth. But at the same time, be remains responsible for the poetical forms, these being either tales appropriate to the small capacities of men, or clear truth. This is mostly made up of the transparent names he re-discovered thanks to be muses. Thus the poet, knowing men's and gods' language, places himself in the center of the world, for his speech is indispensable to cosmic communication

Full textThe preverbs a)na- et kata- are usually considered as a couple, because for motion verbs a)na- bears an up motion and kata- a down motion. These two preverbs have nevertheless been employed variously and more widely than for merely spatial indications.Studying the compound verbs of the works of Homer, Hesiod and Herodotus allows us to identify the essential conno-tations linked to these preverbs since early literature. Even if we cannot find the Urbedeutung, it’s possible to unders-tand how the meaning of these preverbs has progressed from a concret meaning to an abstract. The ordered investiga-tion of these compound verbs, by distinguishing the different categories of meaning, help us discover some semantic classes which seem to be essential for each preverb. Thus we see that the preverb a)na- is mostly linked to motion verbs, whereas the preverb kata- is more combined with stative verbs or verbs which discribe a disappearance.The question of aspect for the preverbs is also fundamental. The study of these two preverbs allows us to understand how they could, both of them, own an aspectual value to emphazise the process accomplishment. But we can see that it’s not the same accomplishment, since a)na- indicates a creative accomplishment, while kata- most often highlights the accomplishment of a dying process
Wacziarg, Aude. "L'influence d'Hésiode sur les cosmologies présocratiques." Toulouse 2, 2003. http://www.theses.fr/2003TOU20100.
Full textHesiod develops new ideas about the world, distinguishing his thought from Homer's. He uses myth to tell the story of the origins and describes the structure of the world, as it appears in the Tartarography. The genealogies of the Gods structure an evolution that takes its start in Chaos, a neutral-gendered word created by Hesiod himself. The first divinities have already lost all anthropomorphic aspect and are ready to be substituted by equivalent physical concepts. Thus does Hesiod prepare the emergence of presocratic cosmologies. His influence is examined in the fragments of Thales, Anaximander, Anaximenes, Xenophanes, Heraclitus, Parmenides, Empedocles and Anaxagoras. The approach is essentially lexical, so as to reduce the problems of transmission inherent to the fragmentary nature of the texts

Full textHow to express erotic desire and its success? From Homeric epics to Pindar’s odes, from Hesiod’s cosmogony to the harsh moral invective, and the passion of lyrics poets, this study examines all the linguistic material from the archaic period to show that process. Desire and sexuality are considered an idiom of their own, within ancient Greek, using their own words, syntax and stylistics. Their words dwell in those of the common tongue and build concepts of desire inside a specific timeline. French is often blind to such a differentiation. Desire turns into an overpowering force and a formidable magical artefact. The syntax of sexual congress and procreation – at the heart of genealogies – thrives through strong constraints, such as decency – and, although eroticism is fundamental in building characters or structuring the world, it is seen as inappropriate – and obscene excess, while fighting for morality. Eroticism is hard to express: it uses the implicit or the caricature, and follows complex conventions. Its stylistics, at last, words its embodiment: desire becomes an object one can touch, wear like an amulet or an ornament, and see, thanks to its glow and material. It is staged, especially in nature, because it reflects its inner ambivalence, between fascination and danger. Erotic and sexual metaphors call out landscapes, plants, and animals, in order to insert desiring human beings into the world. The grammar of desire forms a complex mechanism based on complicity and the questioning human nature

Full textThe reconstitution of the notion of life within the ancient philosophy is the principal idea of the present study. The aim is to re-establish the conception of this notion within the Greek language and culture, especially within the knowledge of early philosophers and the philosophy of Aristotle. The arrangement of this contribution is based on the meaning and relation of the words βίος and ζωή, two fundamental terms, exclusive to the Greek language. The first part of the study shed new light on the formal constitution and «original» meaning of these words. In particular the linguistic and cultural factors which converge in their formation and evolution are investigated in detail. The reconstruction of the historical and linguistic context of the words βίος and ζωή gives rise to the second part of the study by the means of reconstructing the notion of life within the poetical tradition and investigation of nature, conducted by the early philosophers. The third part of the study approaches the notion of life in the philosophy of Aristotle from the principle question at issue: whether the idea of life is reduced to the investigation of living organisms and his theory of soul or if it exceeds the biologic purpose to encompass other categories of his philosophy. This analysis of the notion of life within the philosophy of Aristotle is conducted by an integrating and dynamic perspective. The reconstitution of the notion of life in the work of Aristotle leads to a reflection about the closeness of his ideas to anterior investigations of natural objects and processes done by the early philosophers. Apart from being a pioneer in the investigation of life, he is also tributary to a particular kind of thinking in ancient Greece. Aristotle’s way of thinking, although far-reaching, is based within his period and preceding traditions

Full textHesiod : after a short résumé of the Theogony and a detailed commentary of the two versions of the myth, the author examines the manner in which the deception operates. Chapter IV is the actual analysis. In this section, the author demonstrates how the myth generates the human condition, the establishment of sacrifice, the separation of men and gods, the end of the Golden Age, the sexual reproduction and, finally, the laws of exchange. Chapter V covers the Myth of Ages. Vi and VV clarifies obscure points in the myth by studying the status of language and the lineage of Night. VIII is purely methodological. Aeschylus : after a methodological chapter, the author's conclusion is that the play of Aeschylus is not a variant of the Hesiodic myth, unlike the story of the Lemnian Woman, which is indeed such a variation. The research then focuses on finding other myths that found the sacrifice or the sexually reproduced generation. The research the focuses on finding other myths that found the sacrifice or the sexually reproduced generation. The Caucasus : a study of the Caucasian myths selected by Georges Charachidzé concludes that they are closer to Hesiod than to Aeschylus

Kyriacou, Irini. "Nommer les mères en catalogue : la fonction de la parenté dans la poésie épique grecque." Paris, EHESS, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015EHES0129.
Full textThis dissertation, falling within the framework of kinship anthropology and gender studies, engages with the study of genealogical references as narrative elements in Greek epic poetry. Using the instruments offered by narratology, semantics and pragmatics, this study, focusing on the analysis of the narrative function of genealogical references, examines how and why masculine and/or feminine ancestors are mentioned in the Catalogue of Women, the Theogony, in the Homeric Hymns, the Iliad and the Odyssey. This approach allows studying the use of genealogical references in its poetic contexts with particular interest on the roles attributed to feminine ancestors within the description of kinship relations. The analysis of the fragmentary poem Catalogue of Women which evolves around feminine figures, mostly recalled as ancestors, is at the core of this dissertation, because it challenges us to re-think the use of genealogical references in the corpus of Greek epic poetry

Solntseva, Irina. "Les récits de Platon sur le passé : entre le mythe et l'histoire." Thesis, Paris 4, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015PA040083.
Full textIn view of the diversity of Plato's texts about the past, the commentators have most commonly suggested to consider them either as a unitary, profoundly pessimistic, conception of history or as a rhetoric form that enables Plato to defend his different ideas. By calling into question the historicising interpretation of the narratives discussing the origin and the decline of the ideal state in the Republic and of the cosmic myth of the Statesman, we offer an synchronic reading of them, taking in consideration the connections between these passages and the Hesiodic and Sophistic tradition of narratives about the past. We suggest to distinguish, on the other hand, a specific category of the Platonic historical accounts that could be called the «myths about the past of Athens» : the Atlantis story and the historical section of the Funeral oration of Socrates in the Menexenus that we could understand the most clearly, in our opinion, if we take in consideration the notion of the “Noble Lie” that Plato introduced in the Republic. Finally, we're focusing our attention on the status of the narrative of the past in the Laws III, often considered as the most historical text in Plato, and we try to show, from this example, how Plato manages to combine the concrete historic facts and his political and psychological theories, following the same approach as in his accounts in the Republic II and VIII – IX

Lavoie, Montemiglio Jean-Carlo. "H.P. Lovecraft : étude comparative de récits des origines." Thèse, 2009. http://hdl.handle.net/1866/3469.
Full textThroughout the 20th century and until now, the different Lovecraft commentators have agreed on one point: the originality of his oeuvre. Impossible to pigeonhole in a specific literary genre, and open to many layers of interpretation, it has been analysed both from a psychoanalytic angle and from a philosophical and scientific angle. However, the purely aesthetic dimension seems to have been forgotten, possibly through negligence. This dissertation proposes an investigation of the aesthetic aspect of Lovecraft’s oeuvre. Our research hypothesis rests on the obvious, yet rarely elaborated upon by critics, analogies between it and the cosmogonical aesthetics in Antiquity. First, we shall position Lovecraft’s work within its literary context, e.g. by establishing its evident connection to such authors as J.R.R. Tolkien and Arthur Conan Doyle, but also by underlining the subtler differences that distinguish it from other writers such as H.G. Wells and William Hope Hodgson. Then, we will put into perspective the elements that logically separate it from Hebrew cosmogony and from the theological and philosophical tradition it inaugurates, as crystallized in Dante’s Divine Comedy, notably. Finally, we intend to demonstrate, based on a close comparison of similar motifs present in Lovecraft’s novella, At the Mountains of Madness and in Hesiod’s poem, Theogony, a revelatory parallel between their respective aesthetics; aesthetics that spring from historically and essentially distinct paradigms of reality, but which are not opposed or contradictory.
