EPÍTETOS E HINO HOMÉRICO VI

Abstract

This work aims to verify if there is a relationship between the epithets used in the text and the parts. In order to carry out this study, we sought a theoretical framework in Maria Helena da Rocha Pereira – Formulas and Epithets in Homeric Language; in Mario Vegetti with the book Men and the Gods; between others. We also use the Dictionnaire Grec-français, Bailly; and the Diccionario manual griego, Vox To proceed with the analysis, a historical contextualization of the corpus was made, as well as a translation that served for the analysis. The work was divided into three chapters that dealt respectively with the historical context, the Homeric hymns and the hymn to Aphrodite. Finally, we verify that in fact there is a significant relationship between the epithets and the theme, the subjects covered in every hymn. This was seen with the separation of the epithets in the introductory part of the hymn, which are related to the parts comming in the request made, showing an evolution of the subject. An external relationship was also seen, in other texts the goddess is mentioned.
