Anacreontics are verses in a meter used by the Greek poet Anacreon in his poems dealing with love and wine. His later Greek imitators (whose surviving poems are known as the ''Anacreontea'') took up the same themes and used the Anacreontic meter. In modern poetry, Anacreontics are short lyrical pieces that keep the Anacreontic subject matter but not the meter. ==The Greek meter== The Anacreontic verse or anacreonteus is the seven-syllable line ˘ ˘ ¯ ˘ ¯ ˘ ¯ ¯〔C.M.J. Sicking, ''Griechische Verselehre'' (Munich 1993), p. 124; D.S. Raven, ''Greek Metre'' (London 1962), p. 85.〕 (where ˘ = breve and ¯ longum). While the Anacreontic may well not be in its origin an "anaclastic" variant of the Ionic dimeter (˘ ˘ ¯ ¯ ˘ ˘ ¯ ¯),〔M. L. West, ''Greek Metre'' (Oxford: OUP, 1982) 31)〕 the two meters have been associated since Anacreon, who often used them together in compositions. One example of anacreontics from the corpus of Anacreon is fr. 11b ''PMG'': :ἄγε δηὖτε μηκέτ' οὕτω :πατάγωι τε κἀλαλητῶι :Σκυθικὴν πόσιν παρ' οἴνωι :μελετῶμεν, ἀλλὰ καλοῖς :ὑποπίνοντες ἐν ὕμνοις. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anacreontics」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
