Storyworld in Nicephorus Basilakes' Progymnasmata

In this contribution I try to show that the ethopoeias of the Byzantine rhetor Nicephorus Basilakes (12th c.) feature a novel narrativity, based upon mimesis of an artificial and antinatural storyworld that is counterfactual and fabulous, though not in the way of traditional mythic or rhetorical lit...

This new narrativity is visible through a number of differential elements of the narrated world, which include a peculiar position of the woman; a novel perspective on Eros, sexuality, and more in general on love; a pagan religiosity different from any historical religiosity; a spatiality and temporality non-homogeneous to that of the author and the reader.  Esta contribución espera demostrar que las etopeyas del rétor bizantino Nicéforo Basilakes (s. XII) exhiben una nueva narratividad, fundada en la mímesis de un mundo narrativo (storyworld) artificial y antinatural, contrafáctico y fabuloso, pero no al modo de la literatura mítica o retórica tradicional. Así inaugura un género discursivo intermedio que, contra todas las apariencias, ya no es propiamente el de los progymnasmata. Esta nueva narratividad se manifiesta a través de ciertos elementos diferenciales del mundo narrado, que incluyen una particular situación de la mujer; una nueva perspectiva sobre Eros, la sexualidad y, más en general, el amor; una religiosidad pagana que no coincide con ninguna religiosidad histórica; una espacialidad y una temporalidad no homólogas a las del mundo del autor y el lector.  application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/afc/article/view/6148 10.34096/afc.v2i31.6148 spa Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/afc/article/view/6148/5502 Anales de Filología Clásica; Vol. 2 Núm. 31 (2018): Entre castidad y lujuria: sexo y amor en Bizancio, parte II.
