Dorippa has discovered that her husband Lysimachus is harboring a prostitute in their house. She wrongly thinks that it is his prostitute rather than his friend Demipho's. At the precisely the wrong time, the cook arrives who Demipho had asked Lysimachus to hire for a party. Lysimachus becomes increasingly frustrated with his friend Demipho. Filmed in Forest Theatre, on the campus of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Reconsidering Zeus’ Order: The Reconciliation Of Apollo And Hermes, Christopher Bungard Mar 2015

Reconsidering Zeus’ Order: The Reconciliation Of Apollo And Hermes, Christopher Bungard

Christopher Bungard

This paper argues that the Homeric Hymn to Hermes explores competing ways of approaching the world through the figures of Hermes and Apollo. Apollo’s reliance on the established world, partially marked by the knowledge of εἰδέναι, is insufficient in understanding Hermes, who aligns himself with the flexible capacity of νόος. Whereas Apollo eliminates his rivals in order to establish himself permanently, Hermes exploits unexplored potentials in order to create space alongside the established gods in the Olympian order. Ultimately, the newly forged friendship of Apollo and Hermes helps us understand the nature of Zeus more fully.

At the precisely the wrong time, the cook arrives who Demipho had asked Lysimachus to hire for a party. Lysimachus becomes increasingly frustrated with his friend Demipho. Filmed in Forest Theatre, on the campus of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Version 2: Performed in English. Dorippa is played assertively, and the cook unwittingly complicates Lysimachus' troubles.

Lies, Lyres, And Laughter: Surplus Potential In The Homeric Hymn To Hermes, Christopher Bungard Mar 2015

Lies, Lyres, And Laughter: Surplus Potential In The Homeric Hymn To Hermes, Christopher Bungard

Christopher Bungard

This paper seeks to reevaluate scholarly responses to the laughter in the Homeric Hymn to Hermes. Using Zupančič's recent work on comedy, I argue that Hermes intentionally exploits surplus potentials that emerge from splits in the perceived unity and completeness of Zeus's cosmos. Through surpluses (a tortoise-lyre, a baby cattle rustler, a baby master of legal speech), Hermes is able to attain his place among the Olympians. The laughter of the audience is one final expression of this acceptance of Hermes and his potential.

When he leads them back inside his house, Calidorus begs …
