Après l’inscription de la coupe de Nestor : disposition du texte et formes de transtextualité dans les épigrammes de l’époque archaïque en Grande Grèce et Sicile

摘要

After the inscription on Nestor’s cup : layout and kinds of transtextuality in the archaic epigrams of Magna Graecia and Sicily The epigram on Nestor’s cup poses, among many others, questions which are also important for other archaic epigrams from the colonial environment of Magna Graecia and Sicily : (1) the layout of a metrical text in the space of a concrete object with the possible presence of punctuation, (2) the intertextual relationship between metrical inscriptions and literary tradition, (3) the tension between concrete needs and esthetical pursuit in a metrical inscription. These three parameters have been applied to three dedicatory epigrams (CEG 392, 394, 396) and a funerary one (CEG 147). This perspective places the problems bound up in these epigrams in a new light and allows one to conclude that it is always necessary to analyse metrical inscriptions, first of all, in the concrete context of their production.
