The invitation made to Prof. Marks aims at furthering the research project "Archaic Greek poetry: poetical traditions and speech genders in Homer and Hesiod" conducted by Christian Werner and financed by the CNPq (2012-15). This project seeks to compare apparently two archaic traditions of composition using hexametric verses (epea), the Homeric and the Hesiodic poetry, i.e., the genres (…
The objective of this research is to focus on the homeric narrator in order to discuss aspects of the Iliad that can be conceived as narrative and poetic tools used by archaic rhapsodes in the context of the performance of early Greek epic poetry. To this end, we will analyze scenes in which gods are employed as a metapoetic device, especially those in which they appear as an audience of …
Exhorted by Zeus in the Iliad to restrain from battle and to deal with nuptial works, as well as being represented as a bigamous goddess in the Odyssey, Aphrodite is essentially associated with the realm of erotism in the Homeric epic. However, such restriction presents problems: first of all, the scope of action of the goddess is broader in the historical process of her worship, covering…
This project aims to understand how Euripides' Heracles conceives, represents, and articulates textual forms that point to pleasure in suffering, seeking support in images, discussions, and ideas developed by Plato in book 10 of the Republic. Its aim is the analysis of the economy of affections, especially suffering, in a classical tragedy with help of both Plato's explicit criticism and …
This research project proposes to investigate the representation of the tyrant of Syracuse Hiero in Pindar's Pythian 2. As a piece of a larger strategy to build a public image and to legitimize the Deinomenid tyranny in Syracuse in the 5th century AD, the epinicion stood out as a vehicle able to forge or reinforce local identities intertwined with the tyrant's figure and to project the dy…
The primary narrator of the Iliad, that is, the one who controls the progress of the main narrative, has the global knowledge typical in epic narrators. He is omniscient, knows past, present and future, narrates in third person, and because of his universal knowledge, his voice has authority and his speech does not allow questioning. By means of narratology applied to Greek hexameter poe…

Magic in ancient Greece is a phenomenon of Greek religion that has recently attracted the attention of many scholars. Nevertheless, its presence in the Homeric epics has not received as much attention as other of its manifestations. If magic has been neglected, the relationship of the goddess Aphrodite with it has been even more so. In the Iliad, this deity wears an ornate girdle, her kes…
The main objective of the project is to investigate the manifestation of divine pity in the Iliad. To this end, it will start from Aristotle's proposition that pity is only possible when we can see ourselves in the same situation as the person that provoked the feeling in us. The investigation will be conducted with a cognitive approach, that is, considering that the gods manifest pity by…
Many studies have recently focused on the performative aspect of Greek drama, clarifying the visual elements of the plays, such as space, props, gestures, and masks. Still, relatively few inquiries link the findings of these investigations on performance with the main political issues that characterized the historical moment in which tragedy and comedy came to light. This research proposa…
