62. Scodel Poetic Authority-Hesiod Hesiod in the Theogony likewise denies any connection between the occasion Hesiod explicitly separates the contents of his performance from its occasion http://www-personal.umich.edu/~rscodel/Hesiod.html

Rhetorical Strategies of Poetic Authority Elsewhere, I have discussed the distinction Homer makes, especially in the Odyssey, between the songs of bards and other storytelling . This argument rests especially on three insights in recent books that appear to point in quite opposite directions. First, Andrew Ford shows in Homer: the Poetry of the Past how the Odyssey evades the reality of the transmission of poetic tradition as well as that of bardic contests . The Muses simply replace poets' teachers; the narrative content of performance has no naturalistic source. Douglas Olson, in contrast, has shown in Blood and Iron how richly the same epic depicts the workings of everyday oral tradition, its considerable interest in how news gets around . Third, Louise Pratt has shown how limited are the truth-claims of early Greek poetry, and how much closer it is to accepted fiction than scholars have tended to assume There are radically different rhetorical approaches available to Greek poets for managing the problem of poetry as public discourse and establishing poetic authority. At one extreme, Homeric epic claims that song derives directly from the Muse, depending neither on the occasion nor on human report, for any secular transmission would introduce the possibility that particular needs and interests have affected the tale. Hesiod in the Theogony likewise denies any connection between the occasion of a performance and its contents. The poem does not specify its audience, and the poet never addresses the audience.. Hesiod explicitly separates the contents of his performance from its occasion, saying that the Muses told him to sing theogonic poetry when he was initiated on Mt. Helicon (33). The here-and-now performance depends on that command then. The claim to be independent of occasion may well be disingenuous, for West as argued, the Theogony we have looks as if it is a version specifically created for the funeral games of Amphidamas.

DOGMA September 2005 Sun Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat The Muses Helen in the Iliad and Alcinous in the Odyssey both say the same thing: it was the desire of the gods to grant material for a song that led to the terror of the Trojan wars. Helen first of all (she is speaking of Paris, also, knowing that they were the cause of the war to come): 'On us two Zeus has set a doom of misery, so that in time to come we can be themes of song for men of future generations.' Alcinous claims the gods destroyed Troy and the Acheans 'that there might be a song in the ears of men yet unborn'. The singer, of course, was Homer. But did he compose it? Poets, then, were singers; nothing was written; each performance of epic verse was unique. Accompanied by a lyre, the poet, the singer, would be permitted to improvise, to recast events. But at the outset of the performance, it was necessary to call upon divine assistance: the Muses were invoked. What did Homer suppose himself to be doing when he sang? According to an interesting book by Finkelkraut, which I paraphrase here, he takes himself to be reporting the truth. No, Homer did not see what happened - he was not present at Troy, and many even say he was blind, but the Muses saw everything; they were eyewitnesses to the events. Even though Homer knows what occurred in broad outline, he calls upon the Muses to help him when his expertise fails. There is a point when he sings:

Of the Origin of Homer and Hesiod, and of Their Contest Of the Origin of Homer and Hesiod, and of Their Contest Aka "The Contest of Homer and Hesiod" As to his parents also, there is on all hands great disagreement. Hellanicus and Cleanthes say his father was Maeon, but Eugaeon says Meles; Callicles is for Mnesagoras, Democritus of Troezen for Daemon, a merchant-trader. Some, again, say he was the son of Thamyras, but the Egyptians say of Menemachus, a priest- scribe, and there are even those who father him on Telemachus, the son of Odysseus. As for his mother, she is variously called Metis, Cretheis, Themista, and Eugnetho. Others say she was an Ithacan woman sold as a slave by the Phoenicians; other, Calliope the Muse; others again Polycasta, the daughter of Nestor. Homer himself was called Meles or, according to different accounts, Melesigenes or Altes. Some authorities say he was called Homer, because his father was given as a hostage to the Persians by the men of Cyprus; others, because of his blindness; for amongst the Aeolians the blind are so called. We will set down, however, what we have heard to have been said by the Pythia concerning Homer in the time of the most sacred Emperor Hadrian. When the monarch inquired from what city Homer came, and whose son he was, the priestess delivered a response in hexameters after this fashion: `Do you ask me of the obscure race and country of the heavenly siren? Ithaca is his country, Telemachus his father, and Epicasta, Nestor's daughter, the mother that bare him, a man by far the wisest of mortal kind.' This we must most implicitly believe, the inquirer and the answerer being who they are especially since the poet has so greatly glorified his grandfather in his works.

Of the two, only Hesiod's Theogony gives a complete Early Greek cosmology, narrating in its poetic lines, the origins of the universe, the gods, and humankind. But like all myth, all stories, Hesiod’s Theogony had a particular agenda or point of view: that was to extol the conquest of the Olympians over the Titans, lead by the single great ordering mind of Zeus. Classicist, Timothy Ganz refers to Hesiod's Theogony as a poem "extolling" Zeus' rule ( Early Greek Myth, Vol 1

Greece Hesiod Hesiod (8th century BC) Hesiod, one of the earliest known Greek poets and representative of early epic poetry, wrote in the same oral tradition as Homer. Only two genuine poems of his survive, the Theogony and the Works and Days . The latter gives an account of a farmer's life and served Virgil as a model for his Georgics . For those in the later 18th century influenced by the philosophy of Primitivism, the works of Hesiod assumed a special significance. They were believed to emanate from a supposed moment in time when the Greeks had just emerged from barbarism but before their purity had been corrupted by civilisation. 11. Hesiod

Hesiod Hesiod, fl. c. 700 BC Greek HESIODOS, Latin HESIODUS one of the earliest Greek poets, often called the "father of Greek didactic poetry." Two of his complete epics have survived, the Theogony , relating the myths of the gods, and the Works and Days , describing peasant life. Life Not a great deal is known about the details of Hesiod's life. He was a native of Boeotia, a district of central Greece to which his father had migrated from Cyme in Asia Minor. Hesiod may at first have been a rhapsodist (a professional reciter of poetry), learning the technique and vocabulary of the epic by memorizing and reciting heroic songs. He himself attributes his poetic gifts to the Muses, who appeared to him while he was tending his sheep; giving him a poet's staff and endowing him with a poet's voice, they bade him "sing of the race of the blessed gods immortal." That his epics won renown during his lifetime is shown by his participation in the contest of songs at the funeral games of Amphidamas at Chalcis on the island of Euboea. This, he says, was the only occasion on which he crossed the sea, but it is not likely to have been the only invitation he received from places other than his hometown of Ascra, near Mount Helicon. Genuine works Hesiod's authorship of the Theogony has been questioned but is no longer doubted, though the work does include sections inserted by later poets and rhapsodists. The story of Typhoeus' rebellion against Zeus was almost certainly added by someone else, while the somewhat overlapping accounts of Tartarus, the hymn on Hecate, and the progeny of the sea monster Keto are highly suspect. The discovery of a Hurrian theogony similar to Hesiod's seems to indicate that Hesiod's theogony owes significant episodes to Middle Eastern models. Nonetheless, the Uranus-Cronus-Zeus succession as told by Hesiod approximates the pattern of a classical Greek tragic trilogy. Thus, the Erinyes (the deities of vengeance) are born when Uranus is overthrown by Cronus, while their own hour for action comes when Cronus is about to be overthrown by Zeus. These and other similar features plausibly represent Hesiod's own contributions to the inherited story.
