Abstract:
Eustathius' Commentary on Homer's Odyssey is preserved in two manuscripts (Parisinus Graecus 2702 and Marcianus Graecus 460). The latest edition of the work by G Stallbaum in two volumes (1:1825, 2 1826) is a printed reproduction of the first edition by N Maioranus in 1550 which was the first attempt of comparative study of the two manuscripts. Since then, there has been no complete edition based on the scientific comparison of both manuscripts and although Stallbaum's edition corrects some minor editorial mistakes, it does not offer a text based on a full study of both manuscripts furthermore

Abstract:
This thesis considers how the Odyssey was adapted for children, as a specific readership, in English literature 1699-2014. It thus traces both the emergence of children’s literature as a publishing category and the transformation of the Odyssey into a tale of adventure – a perception of the Odyssey which is still widely accepted today (and not only among children) but which is not, for example, how Aristotle understood the poem. I explore case studies from three different points in the development of children’s literature, and in the development of the Odyssey as a tale of adventure, and conne

Abstract:
Often praised for its sophistication in the narrator- and character-text, the Odyssey is regarded as the ultimate epic of a warrior’s much-troubled nostos. As a corollary of both its theme and the polytropia of the main hero, the poem explores extensively the motifs of secrecy and disguise. Apart from the lying tales of Odysseus, one important, albeit less obvious, example of the tendency to secrecy and disguise is the exchanges between the gods, which constitute a distinct group of speeches that have significant implications for the action of the poem.

Besides Iliad 10 and the end of the Odyssey, book 11 of the Odyssey has been the most disputed passage in Homer in terms of authorship.

The introduction discusses the place of Od. 11 within the Odyssey, in terms of theme and narrative structure.

Abstract:
This thesis argues that the defining characteristic of intra-familial relationships in both the Iliad and the Odyssey is inequality. Homeric relationship pairs that are presented positively are strongly marked by an uneven distribution of power and authority, and when family members do not subscribe to this ideology, the result is a dysfunctional relationship that is condemned by the poet and used as a negative paradigm for his characters. Moreover, the inequality favoured by the epics proceeds according to strict role-based rules with little scope for innovation according to personality, mean

This thesis seeks to analyze the Homeric allusions in the Aethiopica with an inclusive definition to explore Heliodorus’ authorial motives. To approach this project, I use textual analysis to avoid arguments rooted in assumptions of the historical context of the novel, about which we know almost nothing. I explore how links to Homer’s Odyssey are visible within the structural organization of the text and the content of the text. I also explore how the content of the novel reproduces actions and compatible settings of Odyssean characters, which therefore qualifies Heliodorus’ characters in a me

The material in question is the adventures in the Odyssey that present female immortals, functioning as antagonists in the epos’ narrative structure.

This study is an archetypal literary analysis of Arthur Miller’s play Death of a Salesman and Homer’s The Odyssey. The analysis aims to demonstrate how Arthur Miller’s protagonist, Willy Loman, in Death of a Salesman demonstrates several stages of Carl Gustav Jung’s theory of the individuation process, similar to Odysseus in Homer’s The Odyssey. This is done by identifying set archetypes and stages of Jung’s individuation process, the persona, the shadow, the anima, and the self. After that, the stages are applied to both Miller’s play and Homer’s epic poem. The analysis shows that both protag

Mark obviously says that all of the disciples of Jesus desert him and flee (Mark 14:50).

In particular, the young man never appears in other Gospels. For this reason, the young man’s identity and his conduct has been a topic of longstanding dispute among scholars. Some regard him as historical figures, one of Jesus’ own disciples like John the son of Zebedee, James the Lord’s brother, or John Mark.

Abstract:
Cette étude explore l’ensemble des traductions de l’Odyssée d’Homère en langue française depuis la Renaissance jusqu’à nos jours. Elle participe à la constitution d’une histoire des traductions à partir du nouvel outillage technique et conceptuel offert par le numérique, qui permet d’envisager à nouveaux frais l’histoire des traductions d’un texte fondateur de la civilisation occidentale. Notre hypothèse, selon laquelle le tournant dans la manière de traduire Homère s’effectue entre la fin du XVIIIe siècle et le début du XIXe siècle en France, avec les progrès de l’archéologie et de la philolo

Abstract:
L’objet de notre thèse, qui s’inscrit dans une réflexion sur le processus de la réécriture des textes classiques à l’époque de la seconde sophistique, est d’étudier le rôle singulier que joue Ulysse dans l’œuvre de Lucien de Samosate. Ulysse se distingue d’abord d’Achille, personnage plus monolithique qui, chez Homère déjà, est construit en opposition avec lui. Par ailleurs, de la citation isolée aux allusions croisées, disséminées au point de créer de véritables échos entre des œuvres en apparence très différentes, il apparaît que l’utilisation qui est faite d’Ulysse est beaucoup plus élaboré

Abstract:
The study proposes that oral-traditonnal cultures, or cultures with a high degree of orality, use similar processes to hide political or social subversion in text. To test this hypothesis, the author examines three texts from three highly oral cultures: a tractate of the Babylonian Talmud, Homer's Odyssey and Maria Edgeworth's Castle Rackrent. The author finds that in all three texts subversion is concealed according to what she defines as the three principles of disguise: articulation, by which a text hides secondary meaning through its use of diction and syntax; construction, by which a text
