Iambic bile. Physiology of the Poetic of Invective
Main Article Content
Abstract
From the origin of the genre, the ψόγος of iambic poetry in archaic Greece was associated with the poet's own temperament and, at times, its mordacity was compared to the virulence of a venomous animal. Little by little, this characterization approached what we could call a "physiology of the poetic genre", that is to say, the subordination of the work to the poet's choleric temperament, which would later find support in the Hippocratic theory of humors. The present article aims to investigate in the poems of Archilochus of Paros (VII B.C.) and Hipponacte of Ephesus (VI B.C.) and in the texts of their respective biographical traditions the ways in which the physiological representation of archaic Greek iambography is traced.
