Elementi epico-omerici nella dizione sofoclea: analisi del secondo stasimo dell'Edipo Re
Il contributo affronta lo studio dei principali epicismi presenti nella lexis sofoclea del secondo stasimo dell’Edipo Re. Viene indagato in particolare il valore stilistico, tematico-concettuale e intertestuale delle locuzioni epico-omeriche riferite alle leggi divine nella prima strofe e al motivo degli oracoli di Laio nel finale del canto. Inoltre si sostiene l’importanza decisiva della dizione epica per supplire la lacuna testuale del v. 906, come per primo riconobbe G. Hermann
Introduzione a METra 2, Epica e tragedia greca: una mappatura
The volume represents the second ‘chapter’ of the METra research project (Mapping Epic in Tragedy – Epica e tragedia greca: una mappatura), and contains the papers presented during the international workshop METra 2, held in Verona in June 2022. Carrying on with the lines of research whose first results were published in METra 1 (Lexis Supplements 11, 2022), this second collection of essays focuses on further aspects of the Homeric legacy in Attic tragedy. As in the first volume, the papers apply different disciplinary approaches, covering a wide range of topics: from metrical, linguistic, and stylistic features to matters of intertextuality and literary allusiveness, from the cultural, religious, and ethical values of archaic Greece – and their persistence in the classical age – to the ‘dialogue’ between ancient epics and modernity
Lessico e metafora tra Omero ed Eschilo: due casi di studio dalla parodo dei Persiani
This paper analyses the Homeric forms that are reused and reinterpreted by Aeschylus in order to create new metaphors and emphasise two main themes from the Persians’ parodos. The first part is dedicated to the imagery and lexicon that describe the Persian army between land and sea. The second section shows how Aeschylus’ lexical experimentation can rework Homeric expressions and lead to the creation of new iuncturae such as the ‘mind dressed in black’, which represents both the Chorus’ anxiety and the foreshadowing of mourning
Rivisitazioni del vanto epico del guerriero nell'Orestea
A peculiar feature of Aeschylus’s Oresteia, a trilogy characterized by a pervasive blending and overlapping of different linguistic registers, is represented by the reprise and refunctionalisation of the boast of epic warriors on the lying body of a defeated enemy. This paper analyses how the topoi of Homeric boast are applied by Aeschylus to characters who, in different ways, either come into conflict with the epic model (Clytemnestra, Aegisthus, Orestes) or are not up for it because of a disastrous unawareness of the real situation (Agamemnon). This allows the poet to cast light on essential nuances of his new dramatic construction
Basta chiedere? Forme, lessico e rituale della preghiera in Aesch. Cho. 1-3
Taking as its starting point the analysis of the prayer that opens Aeschylus’
Libation Bearers, this paper explores the relations between the forms and gestures of this
prayer addressed to Hermes Khthonios and further invocations used within the same
tragedy, by Orestes, Electra and the Chorus, addressed also to Agamemnon and Zeus.
Through a reconstruction of the religious context contemporary to the representation of
the tragedy, and considering epic antecedents, textual as well as gestural elements are
analysed to understand dramatic strategies used by Aeschylus to shape the characters
and build the plot of the dram
Presenze di Elena nel corpus sofocleo
The paper focuses on Helen and its ‘presence’ in Sophoclean drama. After a brief introduction (1), section 2 analyses the few references to Helen that are found in Sophocles’ extant plays (from Ajax and Electra). Sections 3‐5 all variously, and selectively, deal with Helen as a character in a few fragmentary plays. In particular, section 4 tentatively associates a one‐word fragment from Sophocles’ Ἑλένης ἀπαίτησις (179 R.2) with the heroine; section 5 focuses on Λάκαιναι – a play most likely featuring Helen among its dramatis personae – and especially on fr. 368 R.2; the latter, it is argued, is incompatible with the hypothesis that Helen was its addressee

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
