fWotD Episode 2645: Homeric Hymns Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Thursday, 1 August 2024 is Homeric Hymns.The Homeric Hymns (Ancient Greek: Ὁμηρικοὶ ὕμνοι, romanized: Homērikoì húmnoi) are a collection of thirty-three ancient Greek hymns and one epigram. The hymns praise deities of the Greek pantheon and retell mythological stories, often involving a deity's birth, their acceptance among the gods on Mount Olympus, or the establishment of their cult. In antiquity, the hymns were generally, though not universally, attributed to the poet Homer: modern scholarship has established that most date to the seventh and sixth centuries BCE, though some are more recent and the latest, the Hymn to Ares, may have been composed as late as the fifth century CE.The Homeric Hymns share compositional similarities with the Iliad and the Odyssey, also traditionally attributed to Homer. They share the same artificial literary dialect of Greek, are composed in dactylic hexameter, and make use of short, repeated phrases known as formulae. It is unclear how far writing, as opposed to oral composition, was involved in their creation. They may initially have served as preludes to the recitation of longer poems, and have been performed, at least originally, by singers accompanying themselves on a lyre or other stringed instrument. Performances of the hymns may have taken place at sympotic banquets, religious festivals and royal courts.There are references to the Homeric Hymns in Greek poetry from around 600 BCE; they appear to have been used as educational texts by the early fifth century BCE, and to have been collected into a single corpus after the third century CE. Their influence on Greek literature and art was relatively small until the third century BCE, when they were used extensively by Alexandrian poets including Callimachus, Theocritus and Apollonius of Rhodes. They were also an influence on Roman poets, such as Lucretius, Catullus, Virgil, Horace and Ovid. In late antiquity (c. 200 – c. 600 CE), they influenced both pagan and Christian literature, and their collection as a corpus probably dates to this period. They were comparatively neglected during the succeeding Byzantine period (that is, until 1453), but continued to be copied in manuscripts of Homeric poetry; all the surviving manuscripts of the hymns date to the fifteenth century. They were also read and emulated widely in fifteenth-century Italy, and indirectly influenced Sandro Botticelli's painting The Birth of Venus.The Homeric Hymns were first published in print by Demetrios Chalkokondyles in 1488–1489. George Chapman made the first English translation of them in 1624. Part of their text was incorporated, via a 1710 translation by William Congreve, into George Frideric Handel's 1744 musical drama Semele. The rediscovery of the Homeric Hymn to Demeter in 1777 led to a resurgence of European interest in the hymns. In the arts, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe used the Hymn to Demeter as an inspiration for his 1778 melodrama Proserpina. Their textual criticism progressed considerably over the nineteenth century, particularly in German scholarship, though the text continued to present substantial difficulties into the twentieth. The Homeric Hymns were also influential on the English Romantic poets of the early nineteenth century, particularly Leigh Hunt, Thomas Love Peacock and Percy Bysshe Shelley. Later poets to adapt the hymns included Alfred, Lord Tennyson, and Constantine P. Cavafy. Their influence has also been traced in the works of James Joyce, the films of Alfred Hitchcock, and the novel Coraline by Neil Gaiman.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:47 UTC on Thursday, 1 August 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Homeric Hymns on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Arthur.

Our special Thanksgiving program and also a special monologue regarding my op-ed in the Washington Times. See Text Below.  Happy Thanksgiving!  Peter Rosenberger HopefortheCaregiver.com  Resentment can lead even the best of hearts into poor judgment, malice, and even self-destruction. While life provides ample opportunities to hold a grudge, the resistance to do so remains a triumph of the human soul. Sadly, that triumph can be elusive - and seems to be the plight of the 45th President. From barbed comments against those in his party and the pulpit-pounding of outrage, Trump's resentment oozes through each insult since the 2020 election (and prior). Although an honest media and objective law enforcement might possibly prove his election misconduct claims, Trump's well-being remains in his hands – not theirs. In the play, The Mourning Bride (1697), William Congreve penned the immortal phrase, "Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, nor hell a fury like a woman scorned." Clearly, Congreve had yet to meet a spurned politician while writing that line.   Artists possess a rare gift that turns personal misery into gold. People such as Sam Kinison, Denis Leary, Lewis Black, and others proved that with solid material, rancor and bitterness could even launch stellar comedy careers. With politicians, however, the audience needs more. Wit, comedy, and talent help, but the oratory must primarily raise – not descend to vindictiveness. Outrage motivates but fails to inspire.  Although living with quadriplegia for more than 55 years, Joni Eareckson Tada states, "Life becomes inspiring, not in spite of the problems and the hard hits, but because of them." The ability to see beyond the injuries and even injustices elevates one to greatness. Trump's accomplishments will speak for generations – maybe further. His policies of America first, a secure border, firm boundaries with trade partners and economic growth for the American people created a prosperous and healthy America in record time. Those things deserve recognition and should echo through the corridors of time.  Due largely to Trump, the Supreme Court finally rectified a national disgrace and reversed Roe vs. Wade. While the political capital spent proved costly in the midterm elections, what better way to expend that capital than promoting life? These accomplishments and more serve as towering achievements for Trump that eclipse many other Presidents. All of these things and more certainly qualify him for another term. Yet, while wrecking balls are essential in tearing down the dilapidated, they make poor tools to erect new construction.  Can Trump pivot to a “kinder, gentler” candidate? Should he? Despite exposing the media's bias and the extensive dysfunction in Washington DC, the transition to uniter has remain outside Trump's grasp. Relentless fighting on multiple fronts allows little time for building - and turning adversaries into allies requires a graciousness that is rare with the bloody sword of warfare. As the nation enters this uniquely American holiday of Thanksgiving, President Trump would not only serve himself, the country, and even the world better by using his unique platform to promote personal and national gratitude – to the exclusion of grievances. In doing so, he (and others) would discover that under quality leadership, mistakes – and even misdeeds by others – become opportunities for growth and improvement.  America does not crave a monarchy but most cry for nobility. The invitation to nobleness bids takers to step into the rare air of authentic leadership and greatness that can heal a nation and inspire beyond its flaws and limitations. If, as Trump states in every rally, we are a nation that only bows to God, then modeling that humility before God becomes paramount – and presidential. Are the gains for one man, for the nation, or for God? Katharine Lee Bates answered this when penning, "…Till all success be nobleness and every gain divine."

“Solo la musica con il suo fascino può legare il senso errante mentre calma la mente turbata”. Così scriveva William Congreve circa 300 anni fa nel suo Inno all'Armonia. Secoli prima, gli antichi scritti greci affermavano che “l'educazione musicale è uno degli strumenti più potenti, perché il ritmo e l'armonia trovano la loro strada nei luoghi interiori dell'anima”. Questo è stato dimostrato da alcuni genitori che hanno osservato i loro adolescenti diventare scontrosi e non collaborativi dopo essersi nutriti di una dieta costante a base di heavy metal. Fu notato anche durante gli anni '30 e '40 del secolo scorso in Germania, quando i nazisti usavano le marce dal ritmo trascinante per ipnotizzare grandi folle così che ascoltassero i discorsi di Adolf Hitler. Indiscutibilmente, la musica può influenzare le menti e i cuori e può essere usata per manipolare e spingere ad agire in modo buono o malvagio. Ad esempio, si ritiene che l'esposizione dei bambini a determinati tipi di musica migliori il loro sviluppo intellettuale ed emotivo. Anche i balbuzienti a volte possono cantare frasi che non riuscirebbero a pronunciare durante una normale conversazione. Secondo il libro Music and the Mind di Anthony Storr, gli effetti della musica sui pazienti che hanno malattie neurologiche che causano disturbi del movimento sono a volte sorprendenti. Storr cita l'esempio di questa paziente: “Congelata nell'immobilità a causa del morbo di Parkinson, sarebbe rimasta impotente, incapace di muoversi, fino al momento in cui ricordò brani che aveva conosciuto in gioventù. Questi la spinsero improvvisamente a far muovere il corpo”. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/corgiov/message

At the turn of the 18th century, a contest was announced in an attempt was made to kick-start the operatic scene in London. The brief was to set an all-sung English opera based on William Congreve's short libretto: The Judgement of Paris. An alluring 100 guineas was promised to the winner, and four contestants entered the competition: John Weldon, John Eccles, Daniel Purcell and Gottfried Finger. Each entry was given an individual premiere before all four were staged on one night - a grand finale at Dorset Garden Theatre on 3 June 1701. The competition was judged by a public vote... what could possibly go wrong? Hannah French explores the music and stories of the four entries.

1 Samuel 16:14-23Music is medicinal. It calms, soothes, and lifts our weariness. It also delights and entertains, and helps us to forget our problems. Like the English poet William Congreve said—music has charms to sooth the savage breast, to soften rocks, to bend a knotted oak.

British playwright and poet William Congreve wrote the often misquoted line, “Music hath charms to sooth the savage breast, to soften rocks, or bend a knotted oak.” At the core of this sentence is a truth that music has a healing and restorative power like no other. If you are suffering from pain or heartache today, or perhaps feeling a bit lost, I pray “the Lord who heals you” (Exodus 15:26) reaches out to you today and soothes you through this music. This episode includes: 1. Willowherb – The Healer (from Flowers) 2. There is a Balm in Gilead (from Prayerful Improvisations) 3. Rest for Your Soul (new) 4. The Blessed Hope (from Notes of Comfort: Hope) God bless you and thanks for listening! - Peter --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/prayimprov/support

Original Broadcast: September 2009 Monthly Theme: King David One of the servants answered, "I have seen a son of Jesse of Bethlehem who knows how to play the harp. He is a brave man and a warrior. He speaks well and is a fine-looking man. And the LORD is with him." (1 Samuel 16:18) David the Harp Player "Music tames the savage beast" (William Congreve). The demon plaguing Saul was no different. The only solace that Saul received was when there was music being played in his presence. He sent out his servants to find someone who was quite skilled with the harp. They find David. Not only a good harp player, but a brave warrior, well-spoken and handsome. Talk about your Renaissance man. David could do just about anything. So David came into Saul's court. The runt of the litter was called into the king's service. David played the harp for Saul to soothe his troubled soul. This is probably when David wrote many of the psalms we have in the Bible. The Psalms span the entire range of human emotion. The same thing that Saul did on a daily basis. A great pastoral heart David had. As any good king should have for his people. David was a servant king who would later have a descendant who is the true Servant King, the King who became a servant to free His people from their sins. David's service showed forth Jesus' service. The service that you and I are to emulate. Amen.

In 1744, in the grand surroundings of London’s Royal Opera House, a musical scandal occurred. During the austere Christian season of Lent, George Frederick Handel (composer of Messiah, The Water Music, and Zadok the Priest) premiered his new opera Semele. Drawing on ancient writings by Ovid and more recent ones by playwright William Congreve, Handel’s ‘musical drama’ Semele broke the rules, social and musical – with the story of a disastrous love affair between the mortal Princess Semele and Jupiter, King of the Gods. Sir John Eliot Gardiner is one of the world’s leading musicians specialising in the ‘restoration’ of early music. With a peerless 50-year track record, he strives to recreate the sounds that composers like Handel and JS Bach would have imagined and heard. His approach combines musicology, scholarship, and an uncompromising passion for the music: rather like a picture restorer, he painstakingly strips away the layers of musical varnish and tarnish that have accumulated over generations, to present the music afresh, as its composers intended. Composer and musician Lloyd Coleman follows John Eliot Gardiner’s work to prepare a brand new 2019 production of Semele. Visiting rehearsals just across London’s Waterloo Bridge from where Semele was first heard 275 years ago, Lloyd talks to John Eliot Gardiner about his philosophy and strategies, and asks some of Gardiner’s many colleagues about how they collaborate with him to realise this ambitious and thrilling project.

It's been said that music can calm the savage beast. However, that quote is wrong. The actual quote comes from the play The Mourning Bride, by William Congreve is and says "music has charms to soothe a savage breast" meaning that music has the power to enchant even the roughest of people. Music is also an inspiring, powerful tool. From getting you pumped at the gym to helping set "the mood," music can be used to manipulate emotions and invoke specific feelings. Dick Clark once said that "Music is the soundtrack of your life." This week, our panel discusses which music makes up the soundtracks of their lives. From "Weird Al" Yankovic, to Queen, to Foo Fighters, there is a lot of diversity and a lot of fun discussion about all genres. Now that you know what music makes up the soundtracks of our lives, what music makes your soundtrack? Is there music that you love but can only listen to when you're in a certain mood?

Top 5 Most Vicious and Vile Female Killers While they don't receive as much limelight as their male counterparts, brutal female killers do exist. In fact, some of them are so disturbed their cold blooded acts of violence will shake you to your core. The women in this list committed truly horrific crimes. Here are the top 5 most vicious and vile female killers. 5. Otty Sanchez in 2009 At 5am on July 26, police were called to a white paneled house on the north side of San Antonio texas. Inside, was 33-year old Otty Sanchez, screaming and wailing "the devil made me do it!" 4. Rosemary West In Glouster England, between April 1973 and August 1979, Rosemary West, together with her husband, Fred abducted, terrorized and killed more than 10 women. Rosemary grew up in a dysfunctional environment. Her father was a schizophrenic who raped her on a consistent basis. She was also bullied at school and was a sexual deviant at an early age. In her teens, she met and began dating Fred West. 3. Genene Jones Known as the Angel of Death, Genene Jones was a pediatric nurse who is believed to have killed somewhere between 1 and 46 babies and children under her care. Born in 1950, Genene Jones was adopted by a local nightclub owner and his wife. She later worked as a beautician before proceeding to nursing school in the 70s. 2. Nannie Doss The "Giggling Granny", Nannie Doss may not look like a serial killer but she's one of the most notorious female killers to ever live – leaving approximately 11 people dead, including her own grandson Born to a dysfunctional family with an abusive father, Nannie and her sisters grew up under a tight watch in blue Mountain, Alabama. No boys, makeup, friends or pretty dresses were allowed in their household. Nannie didn't start having a social life until she got her first job and soon after, she married husband number one, Charley Braggs, after just five months of dating. The marriage was a nightmare; Charley's mother lived with them and was as domineering as Nannie's father. 1. Katherine Knight The youngest of twins, Katherine was born to Barbara and her partner, Ken. Her childhood wasn't pleasant. She was molested by family members until 11, and was a loner and bully around town. She dropped out of school at 15 without learning to properly read or write but managed to land her "dream job" of cutting up and carving meat at the local slaughterhouse. Katherine was so skilled she was soon promoted and received her own set of butcher knives, which she treasured and hung above her bed so "they would always be handy." So there were the Top 5 Most Vicious and Vile Female Killers These women are in a league of their own. Wheather they killed out of insanity or were a product coming out of their environments, playwright William Congreve may have said it best with his famous line: Hell hath no fury, like a woman scorned.
