Archilochian or archilochean is a term used in the metrical analysis of Ancient Greek and Latin poetry. The name is derived from Archilochus, whose poetry first uses the rhythms. ==In Greek verse== In the analysis of Archaic and Classical Greek poetry, archilochean usually describes the length ׯ˘˘¯˘˘¯×¯˘¯˘¯¯〔L.P.E. Parker, ''The Songs of Aristophanes'', Oxford, 1997, p. xvii〕 (where ¯ indicates a longum, ˘ a breve, and × an anceps syllable). The alternative name erasmonideus〔Bruno Snell, ''Griechische Metrik'', 4th ed., Göttingen, 1982, pp. 41f. n. 11; C.M.J. Sicking, ''Griechische Verslehre'', Munich, 1993, p. 128 (here and in the index ×× is misprinted for × at the beginning of the verse)〕 comes from Archilochus' fr. 168 West: :Ἐρασμονίδη Χαρίλαε, | χρῆμά τοι γελοῖον :ἐρέω, πολὺ φίλταθ᾽ ἑταίρων, | τέρψεαι δ᾽ ἀκούων. As indicated, a caesura is observed before the ithyphallic (¯˘¯˘¯¯) ending of the verse. (Because of this, the name ''erasmonideus'' has sometimes been used to refer only to the colon ׯ˘˘¯˘˘¯× preceding the ithyphallic.〔Peter Kruschwitz, " Die antiken Quellen zum Saturnischen Vers," ''Mnemosyne'' 55 (2002), p. 478〕) The verse is also used stichically in Old Comedy, for example in Aristophanes, ''Wasps'' 1518-1537 (with irregular responsion〔Sicking, ''Griechische Verslehre'', p. 185; Parker, ''The Songs of Aristophanes'', pp. 258-261〕) and in Cratinus fr. 360 Kassel-Austin, where, as Hephaestion notes,〔J. M. van Ophuijsen, ''Hephaestion on Metre'', Leiden, 1987, pp. 139f.〕 no caesura is observed before the ithyphallic ending: :Χαῖρ᾽, ὦ μέγ᾽ ἀχρειόγελως ὅμιλε, ταῖς ἐπίβδαις, :τῆς ἡμετέρας σοφίας κριτὴς ἄριστε πάντων, :εὐδαίμον᾽ ἔτικτέ σε μήτηρ ἰκρίων ψόφησις. The verse also occurs in the choral lyric of tragedy and comedy, with the same caesura as in the example from Archilochus, as a rule.〔Aeschylus, ''Seven Against Thebes'' 756-7 ~ 764-5, Sophocles, ''Oedipus the King'' 196-7 ~ 209-10, Euripides, ''Medea'' 989-90 ~ 996-7, ''Iphigenia in Tauris'' 403 ~ 417, Aristophanes, ''Assemblywomen'' 580-1. Sicking, ''Griechische Verslehre'', p. 128.〕 Trichas used the name archilocheion for the trochaic trimeter catalectic, ¯˘¯× ¯˘¯× ¯˘¯, seen in Archilochus, fr. 197 West, and used stichically by Callimachus (fr. 202 Pfeiffer).〔Sicking, ''Griechische Verslehre'', p. 111〕 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「Archilochian」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
