Abstract

Abstract:The Thesmophoriazousai brims with themes of imitation, from its broader tragic parodies to its finer sonic textures. This study uncovers the functions and effects of imitation on the dramatically crucial (but often neglected) verbal level by means of Echo—a bizarre metatheatrical character who embodies the dynamics of mimicking speech and parody. The aural echo is provided as a conceptual frame, illustrating how verbal mimicry functions to both degrade and bolster identity and status in Echo's scene and elsewhere in the play. Echo's speech patterns ultimately serve to perform, manipulate, and expand forms of mimicry in Old Comedy.

阿里斯托芬论文中的喜剧回声诗学
摘要:《Thesmophoriazousai》充满了模仿的主题,从更广泛的悲剧戏仿到更精细的声音纹理。这项研究通过Echo揭示了模仿在极其关键(但经常被忽视)的言语层面上的功能和效果。Echo是一个奇异的元戏剧角色,体现了模仿言语和戏仿的动态。听觉回声是作为一个概念框架提供的,说明了言语模仿如何在回声的场景和剧中其他地方降低和增强身份和地位。Echo的言语模式最终用于表演、操纵和扩展《老喜剧》中的模仿形式。

期刊介绍: Founded in 1880, American Journal of Philology (AJP) has helped to shape American classical scholarship. Today, the Journal has achieved worldwide recognition as a forum for international exchange among classicists and philologists by publishing original research in classical literature, philology, linguistics, history, society, religion, philosophy, and cultural and material studies. Book review sections are featured in every issue. AJP is open to a wide variety of contemporary and interdisciplinary approaches, including literary interpretation and theory, historical investigation, and textual criticism.
