EVE OF THE FESTIVAL Making Myth in Odyssey 19
Harvard University Press. Near Fine with no dust jacket. 2011. Paperback. 0674053354 . Light bump to top of spine and tiny crease to 1 corner. Else fine. ; Eve of the Festival is a study of Homeric myth-making in the first and longest dialogue of Penelope and Odysseus Odyssey 19. This study makes a case for seeing virtuoso myth-making as an essential part of this conversation a register of communication important for the interaction between the two speakers. At the core of the book is a detailed examination of several myths in the dialogue in an attempt to understand what is being said and how. The dialogue as a whole is interpreted as an exchange of performances that have the eve of Apollo�s festival as their occasion and that amount to activating and even enacting the myth corresponding within the Odyssey to the ritual event of the festival. ; Hellenic Studies 47; 368 pages .
