The present research aims to offer the public a generous applied study, a critical anthological monograph entitled simply Apollonius Rhodius. "Argonautics", in order to present the life and, especially, the work of the Alexandrian writer from a new perspective, of the reader less overwhelmed and discouraged by the clichés of traditional criticism, but rather paying attention to the details that provoke the adoption of a reading grid. meant to capture that unspeakable of Apollonian opera. For it is unlikely that we now consider Apollonius a clumsy writer, either because of his immature age or because of his desire not to go beyond the patterns set by Callimachus, his mentor, as his exegetes have hitherto done. older or newer. In our opinion, Apollonius of Rhodes is more than a fervent militant, enlisted in the army of writers who obstinately practiced the strategy imposed by the inventors of Alexandrian writing techniques: he himself can be considered in their ranks a neotter or inventor who manages to masterfully master the techniques of irony. fine, but also to put in a whole new light the image of epic and tragic patterns, succeeding, in the end, to melt them into a matter that he chose to be unexpectedly an epic one, but of a completely unusual type, tributary not only to archaic epics and classical ancient dramaturgy, but also to Romanian techniques. We would even say that, as we will see from the analysis contained in the following pages, Apollonius can be considered a poietés neóteros neotérōn therefore an innovator among innovators. It is perhaps the first time that an Alexandrian writer has used an entire ancient literary arsenal of genres and species to dismantle, not without fine irony, their shortcomings. For it was not the direct critical attitude that was the effective way, but rather the biting, disqualifying irony.
But, in order to be able to prove this thesis, but also another one regarding the poet's intention to socialize the heroic and legendary characters, as well as the oldest Greek institutions, we thought it appropriate to offer not only details about the life and work of the writer, about tradition the manuscript either about the legendary one that preceded the appearance of the famous Apollonian Argonauts, or even about the composition of the epic, but also a detailed analysis on the parody of the epic and tragic tópos. Another chapter, perhaps less expected, but still unique in the more comprehensive context of Apollonian exegesis, is entitled The Art of Discourse in the Argonauts of Apollonius Rhodius, which appeared and developed following a careful analysis of the dialogued passages or monologues spoken by protagonists. I also introduced, in addition to the other more extensive chapters, a short chapter entitled Homer and the Art of Apollonian Comparison. In short, out of the desire to make available to readers a sample of what we call Apollonius' infinite capacity for innovation, which, thus, will not only remain a mere imitator of the model, but will succeed in overcoming its inhibitory threshold. literary, which others even set out to copy.
At the end of our hermeneutic excursion we provided a generous support of passages (Capitula excerpta) chosen from the Argonautics, both in Greek, using the edition of GW Mooney (The Argonautica of Apollonius Rhodius, London-Dublin, 1912), as well as and in the Romanian translation belonging to Ion Acsan (Argonautics. The Epic of the Argonauts, Bucharest, 1976). The chosen passages have a suggestive title that facilitates their situation in the wider framework of the story. Also, the texts are accompanied by a broader critical presentation and explanatory notes that refer especially to the proper names of the characters, peoples and localities often strange or even unheard, so that we can come to support the index. ethnographic and geographical in Greek (Index graece ethnographicum et geographicum) at the end of our monograph. We also thought it appropriate to reproduce, in the footnotes, the main original texts that testify to the cramps in the life of the Alexandrian poet (Vita I, Vita II, lexicon Suda).
Regarding the transcription of Greek proper names, we took into account both the norms established in the introductory pages of the complete edition of Plato's work (coordinators: Petru Cretia and Constantin Noica, Scientific Publishing House, Bucharest, 1964-1993 ), as well as those established in the introduction of the European Mythical Toponymy dictionary made within the Geomitica scientific project (coordinator: Florica Bechet, consultant: Gabriela Cretia; authors: Ioana Costa, Doina Doroftei, Octavian Gordon, Simona Nicolae, Maria-Luiza Oancea, Bucharest , University of Bucharest Publishing House, 2010, pp. 13-15). I considered necessary the notation of the accented syllables with a sharp accent, and not with their original accent, only for the proper names transliterated from the Greek language and only in the exegetical passages, not in the translation of the passages from the Argonautics corpus. For proper nouns already in use with a certain transcription and pronunciation (e.g. Medea, Heracles, Aphrodite, Hera, Athena) I did not consider necessary the notation of the stressed syllable. We also opted for the transcription of Apollonius, and not Apollonios (the original version), as international usage generally prefers the Latin forms in -us for the names of people instead of the Greek forms in -os.
