Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Minor Poems of Homer: The Battle of the Frogs and Mice; Hymns and Epigrams Herodotus of Halicarnassus, in the pursuit of truth, writes this history of the birth and life of Homer. When, many years ago, the city of Cumæ in Æolia was built, there flocked to it many persons of the various nations of Greece, and, among them, were some from Magnesia. One of these was Menapolus, the son of Ithagenes, the son of Crito. This man, far from possessing riches, had scarcely the means of subsistence. When settled in Cumæ, he married the daughter of Omyretis. By this marriage he had one child, a girl, whom he called Critheïs. The husband and wife both died, leaving this child very young. The father, before his death, appointed Cleanax of Argos, one of his most intimate friends, her guardian. In the course of time, by a secret intrigue, Critheïs found herself with child. This was for some time concealed; but Cleanax, having discovered it, was much afflicted by the occurrence, and privately reproached her with her fault, laying before her the dishonor she had brought upon herself.
