Full textThe study focuses on aspects of the myth of Kore-Persephone referring to Attica, its worship and its presence outside the civic religion. The first part focuses on the myth of Kore and different suggestions for the etymologies of names proposed by the Elders. The second part focuses on festivals and cults of Attica where Kore appears alone or alongside of Demeter: the Thesmophoria, the Eleusinian Mysteries, the lesser mysteries of Agra, Skira and Haloa, local Thesmophoria and Eleusinian worships, shrines and sacred sites related to the goddess. The third part is dedicated to the place of the goddess in magic, in Dionysian or Orphic religious connections (Society of Iobacchoi) and Artemidorus’ treatise on oneirocriticism. The fourth part contains the corpus of texts referenced in the work (literary sources, inscriptions and papyrus). An appendix is devoted to the image of Kore-Persephone in the works of Porphyry

My thesis focuses on Thebes, a city-state in Ancient Greece famous for being the setting of the tragic stories of Oedipus and his family. Many historians focus on this literary tradition or the ways in which Theban military exploits affected their position of power in the Greek world; however, I center my study on the religious landscape of this particular city-state between the years of 510 BCE and 323 BCE. My first chapter takes a step back, outlining the way in which religion is presented to an audience at this time through the plays Oedipus Rex, Antigone, and Seven Against Thebes. In the next two chapters, I turn to look at items housed in the Archaeological Museum of Thebes regarding two specific religious events that took place in and around ancient Thebes: The Thesmophoria and the initiation into the rites of the Kabeiroi. The material evidence that I survey in these two chapters provide a glimpse into the practices of Theban religion that lie outside the traditional practices and participants. I argue that studying these particular pieces of written and material evidence in combination with one another provides a perspective at the local level of Theban religion that can also be expanded in order to under the religious landscape of ancient Greece on a much deeper and richer level.

Full textCatalogue and commentary of a unit of classical and Hellenistic terracottas (IVth to III century BC)found in the thesmophorion of Thasos (Greece). This considerable amount of mouldmade figurines are studied here as industrial product intended to satisfy the needs of popular devotion. The analysis of the material takes in account the totality of the sherds (ca 10 000) and not, as usually, an hazardous and more or less significative sampling of interesting pieces: reconstruction of about 40 mould-types (graphically illustrated), with the diagram of their derivative production (succession of generations, different versions of the same mould-type. . . ) And minimal number of items for each mouldtype or class of votive. This analysis allows to define the different classes of gifts for each period and to distinguish sh the formation, in the Ist half of the IVth century, a date contemporary with the enlargement of the sanctuary, of a specific class, representing crowned female worshippers, hands upraised, and gradually superseding the other classes of gifts: these figurines may illustrate some precise rituals in the festival of the thesmophoria. The minute observation of the manufacture methods allows to observe how the craftsmen satisfied that specific demand,in a first time adapting one by one the existent types representing female deities, and secondly producing by industrial methods new types, specially created but still inspired by the attic sculpture. In the Hellenistic period, they only appropriate, in the wide repertoire the tanagrean koine,the types which their customers could identify with female worshippers. In this way does appear the duality of the coroplast's craft,half-way in between the well-known traditions of thasian sculpture and pottery: judging from their sculptural quality, most of the prototypes must have been modelled by authentic sculptors who also made the first moulds:on the other hand, the mass of derivative production, which quality fast decline in the succession of generations and versions, must have been manufactured by simple moulders,probably potters who produced figurines as a subsidiary activity

The range of this thesis focuses on three plays written by Aristophanes which related with women: Lysistrata, Thesmophoria, and Assemblywomen. The substance of these texts all has correlation because their topics all enclose with one subject: women. No matter in aspects of language or personality or impersonation, in a word, female is the basic core of these texts. The most important of all is that the female body becomes the territory for male and female to discuss and practice the sex issue. The thesis tries to use Bakhtin’s Carnival Theory and the sexual arguments of post-feminists to analyze deeply into the complications and slightness of these plays. In the second chapter of the thesis, I debate about the conceptions of the Carnival Theory and Feminism associated with feminine body and grotesque laughter separately in the second section and the third section. Finally, I concentrate on comparing the correspondence and contradiction and the gap which can be imagined and applied between the two theories. In the third and fourth and fifth chapters of this thesis, I utilize the two theories to interpret and anatomize the three plays. In Lysistrata, Aristophanes is limited to the scope of ideology of monopolistic masculinity. The women in the text v are virtually the tools to consolidate the masculine authority. In addition, on account of the single and absolute ideology of the text, it causes the weakness and feebleness of the Dionysian laughter in the work. However, Aristophanes uses lots of reverse and transgressing conditions to build the foundation of femininity and grotesque in Thesmophoria. Applying the saturnalian principles such as the transgression of genres, the production of sexuality and the combination between body and language provides the release and rebirth of body and laugh in the play. Aristophanes furnishes us with the unlimited possibility of feminine power and the animating practice of grotesque laughter by the dramatic writing of ideal Utopia in Assemblywomen. By introspection the textual concept of the three works, we can see clearly a new and special path that is a more and more optimistic way leading to feminine grotesque to interpret these plays.
