Aristóteles (em grego antigo: Ἀριστοτέλης, transl. Aristotélēs; Estagira, 384 a.C. — Atenas, 322 a.C.) foi um filósofo grego, aluno de Platão e professor de Alexandre, o Grande.[2]
A Poética (em grego antigo: Περὶ ποιητικῆς; em latim: poiétikés), provavelmente registrada entre os anos 335 a.C. e 323 a.C. (Eudoro de Souza, 1993, pg.8), é um conjunto de anotações das aulas de Aristóteles sobre o tema da poesia e da arte em sua época, pertencentes aos seus escritos acroamáticos (para serem transmitidos oralmente aos seus alunos) ou esotéricos (textos para iniciados).
Horacio
Quinto Horacio Flaco (en latín Quintus Horatius Flaccus) (Venusia, hoy Venosa, Basilicata, 8 de diciembre de 65 a. C. – Roma, 27 de noviembre de 8 a. C.), fue el principal poeta lírico y satírico en lengua latina.
Longino (en griego:Λογγίνος) o Pseudo-Longino
es el nombre habitual que se da al autor del tratado Περὶ ὕψους (Sobre lo sublime), que especifica especialmente el concepto de "grandeza" en la literatura. Longino (probablemente Dionisio Longino), debió ser un profesor de retórica o crítico literario de cierta tendencia neoplatónica que pudo vivir entre el siglo I y el siglo III.
On the Sublime (Περì Ὕψους Perì Hýpsous) is a Roman-era Greek work of literary criticism dated to the 1st century AD. Its author is unknown, but is conventionally referred to as Longinus (/lɒnˈdʒaɪnəs/; Ancient Greek: Λογγῖνος Longĩnos) or Pseudo-Longinus. It is regarded as a classic work on aesthetics and the effects of good writing. The treatise highlights examples of good and bad writing from the previous millennium, focusing particularly on what may lead to the sublime.
The author's identity has been debated for centuries. The oldest surviving manuscript, from the 10th century, indicates the original author was named "Dionysius or Longinus", which was later misread as "Dionysius Longinus". Subsequent interpretations have attributed the work to Dionysius of Halicarnassus (1st century) or Cassius Longinus (c. 213–273 AD), though neither is now widely accepted.
Marco Fabio Quintiliano,
en latín Marcus Fabius Quintilianus (Calagurris Nassica Iulia, c. 35 – Roma, c. 95). Fue un retórico y pedagogo hispanorromano.
Su fama proviene de su Institutio oratoria (c. 95 d. C.), una obra enciclopédica que recoge todo cuanto es necesario para formar a un orador, en doce volúmenes. C
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trojan_War
Those who believe that the stories of the Trojan War are derived from a specific historical conflict usually date it to the 12th or 11th centuries BC, often preferring the dates given by Eratosthenes, 1194–1184 BC, which roughly corresponds with archaeological evidence of a catastrophic burning of Troy VIIa.
A Guerra de Troia AO 1990 foi um grande conflito bélico entre gregos e troianos, possivelmente ocorrido entre 1300 a.C. e 1200 a.C. (fim da Idade do Bronze no Mediterrâneo).
êxodo
The Exodus in traditional chronology is assigned date of 1496 BCE, considered impossible to some scholars,[49] while others dismiss the literal value of this biblical dating.[50]
Aunado a esto, poner fecha al Éxodo también ha sido un gran reto. Hay diferentes hipótesis, pero ninguna prueba histórica que lo confirme:
- Alrededor del final de la era de los hicsos
- Alrededor del 1420 a. C., puesto que existen documentos sobre la invasión de Canaán por parte de los habiru cuarenta años más tarde ―esta hipótesis casa bien con la idea actual de que el personaje histórico de Moisés era el décimo quinto príncipe del rey de Egipto del siglo xv a. C. llamado Ra-mose, que también desapareció de los expedientes egipcios alrededor de la época de la muerte de la reina Hatshepsut.
- Durante el siglo xiii a. C., pues el faraón durante la mayoría de ese tiempo fue Ramsés II, el cual se considera habitualmente que fue el faraón con el cual se tuvo que enfrentar Moisés –conocido como «el faraón del Éxodo» o «el faraón opresor» de quien se dice haber obligado a los hebreos a construir las ciudades de Pithom y Ramesés. Estas ciudades se conocen por haber sido construidas bajo Seti I y Ramsés II, haciendo a su sucesor Merenptah el posible «faraón del éxodo». Sin embargo, en la estela de Merenptah del 5.º año del citado faraón (1208 a. C.), se narra que «Israel está acabado, no queda ni la semilla». Además, en 1898 se descubrió la momia de Merenptah, pues no había perecido ahogado.
- Una hipótesis más reciente y controvertida afirma que Moisés era un noble de la corte del faraón Akenatón. Muchos estudiosos, desde Sigmund Freud hasta Joseph Campbell sugieren que Moisés pudo haber abandonado Egipto tras la muerte de Akenatón (1358 a. C.) cuando las reformas monoteístas del faraón fueron rechazadas violentamente.89 Las principales ideas que apoyarían esta hipótesis serían que la religión monoteísta de Akenatón era la predecesora del monoteísmo de Moisés, y una colección contemporánea de las Cartas de Amarna,90 escritas por los nobles para Akenatón, describen bandas asaltantes de habirus atacando territorios egipcios.91
