Maybe, but Greeks definitly didnt develop Illiad, they heard it from the people that lived in Balkans and wrote it down. Juat like Jesus didng develop his stories from Bible alone, but told stories bundered if not thousends of years older than him that were popular in his area. long time before they ever arrived on Balkan.Illiad dates back to at least 1100bc and Greeks first settled on Balkans areound 800bc , so there is a 300 years gap. Homer said that they heard it from people who lived there so it was most likely developed by illyrians and original illyad probably sounded nothing like this

@lostathenian1836

@@lahaine8026 The Iliad was a growing and changing thing. It was an oral tradition passed down many hundreds of years. Homer is credited because he made it popular to the Greeks. It actually probably wasn't even written down until a couple hundred years after Homer. What was written down was what performed. Thus, this would be very accurate to what it sounded like, if even a hundred or two years after Homer.

Who knows if it's historically accurate, but it's very interesting how the meters interact here. The poem is in the famous dactylic hexameter. In simple terms, we can consider it to mean there are 6 stressed vowels, or "beats". At the same time, the time signature of the music can be considered to be 2 bars of 4/4, meaning we have 8 beats per verse. That way, we have 6 beats for recitation and 2 for breathing.

this actually unironically goes hard.

*"Once I heard a scholar with a fine voice read aloud from the Greek poet Homer, and I remember that the sound of the rolling lines seemed to make my blood stand still."* Sir Henry Rider Haggard wrote the above lines in KING SOLOMON'S MINES (1885), an adventure novel whose battle scenes have been compared to those found in Homer's ILIAD. Haggard, who wrote no less than seventeen sequels to KING SOLOMON'S MINES, would also go on to write THE WORLD'S DESIRE (1890) in collaboration with Andrew Lang (who also translated Homer into English prose). THE WORLD'S DESIRE is a sequel to the ODYSSEY, and features Odysseus and Helen travelling to Egypt.

Perfect. The aspirated and non aspirated consonants! That's how it might have sounded in the bard's time.

It would be interesting to know if a bard would have used variation of pitch, pace and tone to add dramatic impetus to the story. It is hard to imagine that the whole thing would have recited in a monotonous sameness. People had longer attention spans, true, but the whole thing? Saying that, I enjoyed the recording. My question being stimulated by speculation, not boredom.

I tend to think that the incantational aspect we experience in this recording would leave the imagination greater freedom to 'live' the narrative rather than restrict listeners' concentration. But I may be in a group of one.

This is, I believe, the 'standard' way of reciting hexameter in our day/part of the world. When reading prose you emphasise the accentuation, and some speculate that the rhapsodes also did this in ancient Greece, when reciting. It is possible to do but it is difficult, for me at least. It may sound a bit off and I personally prefer this pronunciation. Here is a link to a reciting of the Iliad I.1-16 by Thomas Olander, associate professor of the institute of nordic and linguistic studies at the University of Copenhagen. This sounds actually very good. www.sproghistorie.dk/files/ilias.mp3

Ed Briggs I do seem to remember in one of the socratic dialogues, the one with the rhapsode, there is a portion where one of the participants mentions how good rhapsodes would try to visualise the portion of the poem they were reciting, and recite it in a manner that would be akin to describing action one is witnessing.
