Title: | Antologia Grega: a Musa dos Rapazes (livro XII) | Authors: | Jesus, Carlos A. Martins de | Keywords: | Antologia Grega; Epigrama | Issue Date: | 2017 | Publisher: | Imprensa da Universidade de Coimbra, Annablume | Project: | info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/FCT/5876/147420/PT | Place of publication or event: | Coimbra, São Paulo | Abstract: | Book XII of the Greek Anthology, the one this volume first offers in Portuguese translation, gathers around 260 epigrams united by the homoerotic subject they all develop. Besides a small group of components devoted to heterosexual love, erroneously included in the collection by scribers and here translated as well, they all deal with the model of a love-relationship between an adult (the so-called erastes, the top-lover) and a teenager (the eromenos, supposed to be the bottom). The Boyish Muse’s immediate parallel is Book five of the Greek Antholoy, devoted to heterosexual love. Nonetheless, a first reading of both of them sheds light on their similarities, enhancing several common topics and images, themselves prove enough of a same reality that is celebrated – both the joys (rather few) and the (many) pains of love. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/44971 | DOI: | 10.14195/978-989-26-1334-5 10.14195/978-989-26-1334-5 |
