Description

The book is an interdisciplinary study on Pythian Three, Nemean Three and Nemean Five, three Pindaric epinicians, which share a special use of the word ni, 'fashioner'. In these victory odes, the term ni refers to creators of immaterial objects and occurs close to the first and/or the final words of the poems, in connection with key themes, namely: health, poetry, choral performance, movement as opposed to stasis.

The study shows that structures in which Pindaric metaphors are found have parallels in Indo-European languages of ancient attestation: Old Indic and Avestan. In doing so, the book casts new light on Pindar's language and the stylistic features of his odes, which are in a relation of historical continuity with phraseological and structural characteristics of religious hymns of Ancient India and Iran. The study reveals that *tet -metaphors and "*tet -compositions", i.e. metaphors and ring-compositions built by means of repetitions of "*tet -words" (Vedic taks, Avestan tas, and Greek ni), have a deep meta-thematic relevance in three linguistically related traditions and are an inherited phraseological stylistic feature common to Ancient Greek and Indo-Iranian poetic creations.
