  1. Grief and the hero
    the futility of longing in the Iliad

    "Grief and the Hero examines Achilles' experience of the futility of grief in the context of the Iliad's study of anger. No action can undo his friend Patroklos' death, but the experience of death drives him to behave as though he can achieve something restorative. Rather than assuming that grief gives rise to anger, as most scholars have done, Grief and the Hero pays close attention to the poem's representation of the origin of these emotions. In the Iliad, only Achilles' grief for Patroklos is joined with the word pothê, "longing"; no other grief in the poem is described with this term. The Iliad depicts Achilles' grief as the rupture of shared life-an insight that generates a new way of reading the epic. Achilles' anguish drives him to extremes, oscillating between self-isolation and seeking communal expressions of grief; between weeping abundantly and relentlessly pursuing battle; between varied threats of mutilation, deeds of vengeance, and other vows. Yet his yearning for life shared with Patroklos is the common denominator. Here lies the profound insight of the Iliad. All of Achilles' grief-driven deeds arise from his longing for life with Patroklos, and thus all of these deeds are, in a deep sense, futile. He yearns for something unattainable--undoing the reality of death. Grief and the Hero will appeal not only to scholars and students of Homer but to all humanists. Loss, longing, and even revenge touch many human lives, and the insights of the Iliad have broad resonance"--

    Preliminary Material -- Introducción -- Figuras Del Duelo -- Ritos De Duelo -- La Elaboración Del Duelo: Las Noches De La Memoria -- Conclusión -- Bibliografía. De libro en libro, a lo largo de una producción poética de medio siglo, el poeta argentino Juan Gelman (1930-), ganador del Premio Cervantes 2007 y uno de los mayores poetas hispanoamericanos vivos, explora nuevas vías formales para dar cuenta de su experiencia personal e histórica, de su recreación incesante de la tradición literaria y cultural. Más fundamentalmente aún, su poesía « desueña lo perdido y la muerte/canta en los alrededores del amor » ( Incompletamente ). Pero ¿de qué pérdida se hace eco el poema? ¿Puede el poema mismo convertirse en un espacio de acogida de « aquello amado ido » ( ibid .)? Este libro enfrenta estas preguntas y otras más a lo largo de una lectura crítica de la extensa obra poética del autor argentino. El análisis de más de veinte poemarios se enfoca desde la problemática central del duelo, en su doble acepción de lucha y luto. Más allá de las trágicas peripecias vitales del propio Gelman, este ensayo pone al descubierto una poética presente desde Violín y otras cuestiones (1956) hasta, por lo menos, País que fue será (2004), y que hace de la conciencia vital de la muerte el núcleo de la escritura

    Preliminary Material -- ACKNOWLEDGMENTS -- INTRODUCTION -- THE UNSPEAKABLE LAMENT: THE HOMERIC ΓOOΣ AND THE HEROES -- THE ARCHAIC EPIGRAM AND THE ADVENT OF WRITING -- ΓRAMMATA ΛEΓONTA TAΔE: CASE STUDIES IN CLASSICAL MOURNING -- THE EPITAPHIOS LOGOS AND MOURNING IN THE ATHENIAN POLIS -- SOME CONCLUSIONS -- BIBLIOGRAPHY -- GENERAL INDEX -- INDEX OF GREEK TERMS -- SUPPLEMENTS TO MNEMOSYNE by H. Pinkster , H.W. Pleket , C.J. Ruijgh , D.M. Schenkeveld and P.H. Schrijvers. This volume examines the influence of literacy on the development of different genres of mourning in ancient Greece. The oral tradition of lament in the Homeric poems forms the point of departure for close readings of epigraphic material and written texts commemorating the dead in the archaic and classical periods, including grave epigrams, threnoi, tragedy, and Athenian epitaphioi . These texts reveal the non-linear development of Greek literacy and offer insight into the ongoing influence of lament in diverse poetic genres and the evolving uses of death and mourning in different media. In particular, the discussion focuses on the role of writing in commemorating soldiers and the evolution of the written memorial into a historical and civic medium of communication

    Preliminary Material /Steven Farron -- Nisus and Euryalus /Steven Farron -- Ancient and modern literary attitudes /Steven Farron -- The poem of grief and love /Steven Farron -- Postscript /Steven Farron -- Recent interpretations of the Nisus-Euryalus episode /Steven Farron -- Bibliography /Steven Farron -- Index /Steven Farron -- Supplements to Mnemosyne. For more than a century, critics of the Aeneid have assumed that all or most of its episodes must propound something about Aeneas and his mission to found the Roman people, and through them about Rome and Augustus; whether that is their positive aspects, or their brutality and destructiveness, or the contrast between the public "voice" of their achievements and the private "voice" of the suffering they cause. This book argues that this assumption is wrong; the Aeneid 's main purpose was to present a series of emotionally moving episodes, especially pathetic ones. This book shows that the Aeneid makes more sense when regarded primarily as a series of emotion-arousing episodes than as expressing a pro-Aeneas, anti-Aeneas or two voices message. That is how it was regarded into the nineteenth century and that is what the ancient Greeks and Romans assumed was the main purpose of literature

    This comparative study places literary meditation on death in the context of the emergence of a 'meditative concept of conscience' in the early modern age. On the basis of an extensive corpus of German, French, and English sources, meditatio mortis is scrutinized for its potential in the individualization of memory. The study concentrates on the literary and poetological consequences of meditation for the textual structure. The most prominent characteristic of this is the high degree of self-reflection and the significance of the anatomical perspective, both of which leave their mark on the self-contemplation of the meditative self

    George Eliot has been widely praised both for the richness of her prose and the universality of her themes. In this compelling study, Peggy Fitzhugh Johnstone goes beyond these traditional foci to examine the role of aggression in Eliot's fiction and to find its source in the author's unconscious sense of loss stemming from traumatic family separations and deaths during her childhood and adolescence. Johnstone demonstrates that Eliot's creative work was a constructive response to her sense of loss and that the repeating patterns in her novels reflect the process of release from her state of mourning for lost loved ones

    The Erotics of Grief considers how emotions propagate power by exploring whose lives are grieved and what kinds of grief are valuable within and eroticized by medieval narratives. Megan Moore argues that grief is not only routinely eroticized in medieval literature but that it is a foundational emotion of medieval elite culture. Focusing on the concept of grief as desire, Moore builds on the history of the emotions and Georges Bataille's theory of the erotic as the conflict between desire and death, one that perversely builds a sense of community organized around a desire for death. The link between desire and death serves as an affirmation of living communities. Moore incorporates literary, visual, and codicological evidence in sources from across the Mediterranean-from Old French chansons de geste, such as the Song of Roland and La Mort li roi Artu and romances such as Erec et Enide, Philomena, and Floire et Blancheflor; to Byzantine and Ancient Greek novels; to Middle English travel narratives such as Mandeville's Travels. In her reading of the performance of grief as a performance of community and remembrance, Moore assesses why some lives are imagined as mattering more than others and explores how a language of grief becomes a common language of status among the medieval Mediterranean elite

    Where is the pleasure in tragedy? This question, how suffering and sorrow become the stuff of aesthetic delight, is at the center of Charles Segal's new book, which collects and expands his recent explorations of Euripides' art.Alcestis, Hippolytus, and Hecuba, the three early plays interpreted here, are linked by common themes of violence, death, lamentation and mourning, and by their implicit definitions of male and female roles. Segal shows how these plays draw on ancient traditions of poetic and ritual commemoration, particularly epic song, and at the same time refashion these traditions into new forms. In place of the epic muse of martial glory, Euripides, Segal argues, evokes a muse of sorrows who transforms the suffering of individuals into a "common grief for all the citizens," a community of shared feeling in the theater.Like his predecessors in tragedy, Euripides believes death, more than any other event, exposes the deepest truth of human nature. Segal examines the revealing final moments in Alcestis, Hippolytus, and Hecuba, and discusses the playwright's use of these deaths--especially those of women--to question traditional values and the familiar definitions of male heroism. Focusing on gender, the affective dimension of tragedy, and ritual mourning and commemoration, Segal develops and extends his earlier work on Greek drama. The result deepens our understanding of Euripides' art and of tragedy itself

    Introduction : Desire & Death in Elite Medieval Emotional Communities -- Philomena and the Erotics of Privilege in the Middle Ages -- Widows and the Romance of Grief -- Masculinity, Mourning, and Epic Sacrifice -- Towards a Mediterranean Erotics of Grief. "This book considers how emotions propagate power by exploring whose lives are grievable and what kinds of grief are valuable within and eroticized by medieval narratives. Incorporating literary, visual, and codicological evidence in sources from across the Mediterranean, The Erotics of Grief reads the performance of grief as one of community and remembrance, to answer why some lives are imagined to matter more than others, and to explore how a language of grief becomes a common language of status among the medieval Mediterranean elite"--

    "The Remembered Dead explores the ways poets of the First World War - and later poets writing in the memory of that war - address the difficult question of how to remember, and commemorate, those killed in conflict. It looks closely at the way poets struggled to meaningfully represent dying, death, and the trauma of witness, while responding to the pressing need for commemoration. The authors pay close attention to specific poems while maintaining a strong awareness of literary and philosophical contexts. The poems are discussed in relation to modernism and myth, other forms of commemoration (photographs, memorials), and theories of cultural memory. There is fresh analysis of canonical poets which, at the same time, challenges the confines of the canon by integrating discussion of lesser-known figures, including non-combatants and poets of later decades. The final chapter reaches beyond the war's centenary in a discussion of one remarkable commemoration of Wilfred Owen"...
