Professor Robert L. Fowler 
Pindar and the Sublime [PDF ebook] 
Greek Myth, Reception, and Lyric Experience

समर्थन

Pindar-the ”Theban eagle”, as Thomas Gray famously called him-has often been taken as the archetype of the sublime poet: soaring into the heavens on wings of language and inspired by visions of eternity. In this much-anticipated new study, Robert Fowler asks in what ways the concept of the sublime can still guide a reading of the greatest of the Greek lyric poets. Working with ancient and modern treatments of the topic, especially the poetry and writings of Friedrich Hölderlin (1770–1843), arguably Pindar”s greatest modern reader, he develops the case for an aesthetic appreciation of Pindar”s odes as literature.
Building on recent trends in criticism, he shifts the focus away from the first performance and the orality of Greek culture to reception and the experience of Pindar”s odes as text. This change of emphasis yields a fresh discussion of many facets of Pindar”s astonishing art, including the relation of the poems to their occasions, performativity, the poet”s persona, his imagery, and his myths. Consideration of Pindar”s views on divinity, transcendence, time, and the limits of language reveals him to be not only a great writer but a great thinker.
