Seminar "Lavori in Corso per ... Roberto Velardi"

Abstract: This presentation inaugurates my new project LORACOLA. It is a comparative analysis of a ring composition. I will read and comment on some passages from Pindar's Pythian Three. I will then focus on a possible Old Indic parallel, namely: a Rigvedic hymn to the Aśvins, the healing deities of the Vedic pantheon. My comparative study reveals a number of precise matches between the themes, phraseology and structure of the two poems.
