I28-R145-10017_oai2025-11-17 Kröll, Nicole 2020-11-30 The object of the paper is to analyse the roles of the narrator and the narratees in George of Pisidia’s Bellum Avaricum. The article puts forth the hypothesis that through the hierarchic relationship of narrator and narratees, the poet aims at mirroring the ideal form of kingship under the Christian emperor Heraclius (reg. 610-641 C.E.) both on a secular and spiritual level. Therefore, the focus will lie on the following three questions: How does the narrator represent himself? How does he address his narratees and communicate with them? And what is his ideological goal in establishing and structuring the narration? By viewing the poem particularly with regard to its narrative techniques of rhetoric and panegyric, the analysis promises to provide a deeper insight into the socio-political and spiritual concepts of Byzantium at the beginning of the 7th century. El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar las funciones del narrador y de los narratarios en el Bellum Avaricum de Jorge de Pisidia. El artículo postula que a través de la relación jerárquica entre narrador y narratarios, el poeta aspira a reflejar la forma ideal del reinado del emperador Cristiano Heraclio (610-641 d.C.) tanto a nivel secular como espiritual. Por lo tanto, el foco estará puesto en los tres interrogantes que siguen: ¿cómo se representa el narrador?, ¿cómo se dirige a sus narratarios y cómo se comunica con ellos? y ¿cuál es su objetivo ideológico al establecer y estructurar la narración? A partir de estudiar el poema especialmente en lo que respecta a sus técnicas narrativas vinculadas a la retórica y al panegírico, el análisis intenta profundizar en los conceptos sociopolíticos y espirituales de Bizancio al comienzo de siglo séptimo. application/pdf text/html https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/afc/article/view/10017 10.34096/afc.i33.10017 eng Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/afc/article/view/10017/8772 https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/afc/article/view/10017/8773 Anales de Filología Clásica; Vol. 2 Núm. 33 (2020): La narración en Bizancio: perspectivas narratológicas sincrónicas y diacrónicas; 75-86 2362-4841 0325-1721 Constructing Order through Narration: Narrator and Narratees in George of Pisidia’s Bellum Avaricum Construyendo orden a través de la narración: narrador y narratarios en el Bellum Avaricum de Jorge de Pisidia info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo revisado por pares https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=anafilog&d=10017_oai |
