Example text
16 Some lines earlier, the verb euwolai is used to declare the familiar relationship of the soul with the gods. Relatives were even more entitled to the rights of hospitality than simple suppliants. 61 – 67 (a report in third person). 16 In Herrero de Jáuregui (forthcoming) I suggest an etymological play between the two words, as epic scenes stress the relation of Rjgt¶r with Rj²my (I come). On the other hand, Martin 2007, 10, observes that the verb 5qwolai is never used in epics in the sense “I come,” and that it is never close to the phonetically similar euwolai.
On the other hand, there was xuw^, which although always associated with hul|r in a body, exceeded the lifespan of the latter. Hul|r does not possess any independent existence once separated from the body; although it may be briefly scattered or even temporarily escape the body, it must, if the person is to live, return to the body immediately. Should it fail to so do, the body will perish and so will the hul|r. The xuw^, on the other hand, purely a shade, flits underground to Hades. Thus, two “inner entities” mark the loss of consciousness (syncope), revival, and death: xuw^ and hul|r.
In the gold leaves, the soul hopes that Persephone will send her to the abode of the purified. 23 Eating and drinking was also the most common gesture of hospitality for the welcome suppliant. But Odysseus’ petition that Arete not include him amongst her feasting men, but send him (1lo· polpµm atq¼mete) immediately to his own land, is particularly interesting in relation to the most recently published gold leaf from Pherai (OF 493 A), whose text begins “send me to the thiasoi of initiates” (p´lpe le pq¹r lust_m hi²sour).
