Iphigenia in the Iliad and the Architecture of Homeric Allusion
Transactions of the American Philological Association Pub Date : 2022-04-15
Thomas J. Nelson

summary:

In this paper, I argue that the traditional narrative of Iphigenia’s sacrifice lies allusively behind the opening scenes of the Iliad (1.8–487). Scholars have long suspected that this episode is evoked in Agamemnon’s scathing rebuke of Calchas (1.105–8), but I contend that this is only one moment in a far more sustained allusive dialogue: both the debate over Chryseis and her eventual return to her father replay and rework the sacrifice story. The Iliad begins by recalling the start of the whole Trojan war.

伊利亚特中的伊菲革涅亚和荷马典故的建筑

概括:

在这篇论文中,我认为关于伊菲革涅亚牺牲的传统叙事隐喻地隐藏在《伊利亚特》 (1.8-487)的开场场景背后。长期以来,学者们一直怀疑这一插曲是在阿伽门农对卡尔卡斯的严厉谴责中引起的(1.105-8),但我认为这只是一场更加持久的暗示性对话中的一个时刻:关于克吕赛斯的辩论和她最终回到她父亲身边的争论重播和重做牺牲的故事。《伊利亚特》首先回顾了整个特洛伊战争的开始。
