Ulixes a poeta Cynaetho laudatus? (H.AP. 167sq. AHS)

Abstracts

EN

In Homer the mythological events from outside the Trojan plot are usually referred to in the discourse of the characters and not by the narrator himself; this, however, is not the case in the Homeric Hymns. In the following short note, I shall attempt to suggest that the author of the Delian Hymn to Apollo could have alluded to Odysseus through a different narrative device. Both the language and structure (including the so-called ring composition) are examined in order to strengthen the present hypothesis.
