Magical names, barbarian names, divine epithets in the hymn to Aphrodite in the PGM IV 2891-2941

In the Papyri Graecae Magicae of Preisendanz-Henrich there are hymns whose main formal feature is the large number of traditional epithets but also of ‘magic names’ that bear on themselves the power of the deity, of ‘barbarian names’, is to say, the names that other people gave to that same deity, i...

Esta proliferación de nombres remite a la realidad del sincretismo religioso helenístico. Sin embargo también puede verse que los himnos mágicos evidencian continuidades con la tradición hímnica griega. Este trabajo se propone establecer las relaciones de continuidad y/o ruptura entre el himno mágico a Afrodita (PGM IV 2902-2939) con la himnodia griega. Para ello, se analiza tanto la estructura hímnica como los contextos probables de ejecución.  Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires 2019-03-03 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo revisado por pares application/pdf http://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/afc/article/view/6842 10.34096/afc.v1i32.6842 Anales de Filología Clásica; Vol. 1 Núm. 32 (2019): Literatura Helenística (coordinado por Daniel Torres); 41-50 2362-4841 0325-1721 spa http://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/afc/article/view/6842/6057
