Bohlander Home Poetry General The Trojan Epic by James, Alan Quintus, Smyrnaeus Quintus of Smyrna ISBN: EDITION: Edition Type: Annotated BINDING: PUBLISHER: Johns Hopkins University Press (03/01/2007) PAGES: This product is not available. SUMMARY A vivid and entertaining story in its own right, the Trojan Epic is also particularly significant for what it reveals about its sources the much older, now lost Greek epics about the Trojan War known collectively as the Epic Cycle. Written in the Homeric era, these poems recounted events not included in the Iliad or the Odyssey. As Alan James makes clear in this vibrant and faithful new translation, Quintus's work deserves attention for its literary-historical importance and its narrative power. James's line-by-line verse translation in English reveals the original as an exciting and eloquent tale of gods and heroes, bravery and cunning, hubris and brutality. James includes a substantial introduction that places the work in its literary and historical context, a detailed and annotated book-by-book summary of the epic, a commentary on sources, and an explanatory index of proper names.

ISBN 0-8018-7965-5. $49.95. Reviewed by Martijn Cuypers, University of Leiden / Center for Hellenic Studies (m.p.cuypers@let.leidenuniv.nl) Word count: 2392 words A new English translation of Quintus' Posthomerica was long overdue. The archaizing language of Arthur Way's 1913 Loeb is occasionally harder to follow than the accompanying Greek text, which is that of Koechly's 1850 edition. Frederick Combellack's 1968 prose version ( The War at Troy Posthomerica ] has tended to be dismissed as a late imitation of Homer without serious attempt to assess its qualities. (...) How far the main thrust of this critique is justifiable can now be left for unprejudiced readers to judge for themselves" (p. vii). Introduction In their recent commentary on Posthomerica 5, J. and the late Kevin Lee provided what was, amazingly, the first full-scale introduction to Quintus and his poem in English. J.'s introduction in the present volume presses largely the same points, but it has been expertly tailored to suit a wider audience. It opens with a section on "Homer and the Epic Cycle" which discusses the oral background of the Greek epic tradition, the Trojan cycle, the contents and nature of the cyclic epics (rightly held to be composed substantially later than the Homeric epics), and the special status, contents, and organization of the

Epic Authority: Quintus of Smyrna’s Construction of Poetic Identity ( Posthomerica E. Tomasso (Stanford University) In the twelfth book of his Posthomerica PH ), an epic poem that deals with the events of the Trojan war spanning from the end of the Iliad to the beginning of the Odyssey , Quintus of Smyrna gives a catalog of the Achaeans who entered the Trojan horse (317-326). Before he does this, however, he calls on the Muses for the first and last time to give him this information, and he briefly relates how they inspired him to write epic while he was tending his sheep in Smyrna (306-313). This passage, more so than any other in PH , has generated intense interest from scholars principally because, as they argue, these lines are the only source of information about Quintus’ life (Combellack 1968.4). According to these same scholars, this passage also adduces further proof for the long-held view that Quintus is a bad imitator: Campbell, for instance, cites Hesiod’s Theogony 22-35 and fragment 2 of Callimachus’ Aetia as Quintus’ models (1981.101).

(Trans.): "The War at Troy: What Homer Didn't Tell" (University of Oklahoma Press, Norman OK, 1968). RECOMMENDED READING Fitzgerald, Robert (Trans.): "Homer: The Iliad" (Viking Press, New York, 1968). INTRODUCTION Homer's "Iliad" begins towards the close of the last of the ten years of the Trojan War: its incidents extend over some fifty days only, and it ends with the burial of Hector. The things which came before and after were told by other bards, who between them narrated the whole "cycle" of the events of the war, and so were called the Cyclic Poets. Of their works none have survived; but the story of what befell between Hector's funeral and the taking of Troy is told in detail, and well told, in a poem about half as long as the "Iliad". Some four hundred years after Christ there lived at Smyrna a poet of whom we know scarce anything, save that his first name was Quintus. He had saturated himself with the spirit of Homer, he had caught the ring of his music, and he perhaps had before him the works of those Cyclic Poets whose stars had paled before the sun. We have practically no external evidence as to the date or place of birth of Quintus of Smyrna, or for the sources whence he drew his materials. His date is approximately settled by two passages in the poem, viz. vi. 531 sqq., in which occurs an illustration drawn from the man-and-beast fights of the amphitheatre, which were suppressed by Theodosius I. (379-395 A.D.); and xiii. 335 sqq., which contains a prophecy, the special particularity of which, it is maintained by Koechly, limits its applicability to the middle of the fourth century A.D.
