Washington, D.C. : Athens, Greece : Cambridge, Mass.: Center for Hellenic Studies : Trustees for Harvard University ; Foundation of the Hellenic World ; Distributed by Harvard University Press, 2002, x, 124pp., . Series: Hellenic studies 1 "This book examines the overall testimony of Plato as an expert - albeit a hostile one - about the cultural legacy of Homeric performances at the Panathenaia. Plato's fine-tuned ear for language - not just any language but in this case the technical language of high-class artisans like rhapsodes - picks up on a variety of authentic expressions and turns of phrase that echo the talk of rhapsodes as they once upon a time practiced their art - and even as they once upon a time spoke about this art." - CONTENTS: Homer and Plato at the Panathenaia -- Epic as music: rhapsodic models of Homer in Plato's Timaeus and Critias -- Humnos in Homer and Plato: weaving the robe of the goddess. 9780674009639 ISBN 0674009630.
