Resumo: This paper presents the translation of eight short texts on the life of the poet Pindar: a fragmentary Life, recovered from the Oxyrhynchus Papyri (P. Oxy. XXVI 2438); three Lives and a collection of sayings, transmitted as attachments to the medieval manuscripts of his works; and the three entries of the Suda that deal with Pindar and his direct relatives. By reading them together, we intend to highlight the variety of traditions, most often based on a biographical reading of his works, but also the persistence of certain stereotypical narrative themes, such as his privileged relationship with the gods, which culminates with Pan singing his songs in the vicinity of sacred mountains, and the gesture of Alexander, who would have spared his house when sacking Thebes.

Oxy. XXVI 2438); três Vidas e uma coleção de máximas, transmitidas como anexos aos manuscritos medievais das suas obras; e os três verbetes da Suda que se ocupam de Píndaro e de seus familiares diretos. Lendo-os em conjunto, pretende-se destacar a variedade de tradições, calcadas no mais das vezes em uma leitura biografizante de sua obra poética, mas também a persistência de certos temas narrativos estereotípicos, como a sua relação privilegiada com os deuses, que culmina com Pã entoando suas canções nas cercanias de montanhas sagradas, e o gesto de Alexandre, que teria poupado sua casa ao saquear Tebas.Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora2022-10-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufjf.br/index.php/ronai/article/view/3844210.34019/2318-3446.2022.38442Rónai – Revista de Estudos Clássicos e Tradutórios; 2022: Special issue: Vitae: constructions around biography in Antiquity and its reception; 103-124Rónai – Revista de Estudos Clássicos e Tradutórios; 2022: Edição especial: Vitae: construções em torno da ideia de biografia na Antiguidade e sua recepção; 103-1242318-3446reponame:Rónaiinstname:Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora (UFJF)instacron:UFJFporhttps://periodicos.ufjf.br/index.php/ronai/article/view/38442/25146Copyright (c) 2022 Camila de Mourahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMoura, Camila de2022-12-06T14:54:12Zoai:periodicos.ufjf.br:article/38442Revistahttps://periodicos.ufjf.br/index.php/ronaiPUBhttps://periodicos.ufjf.br/index.php/ronai/oairevistaronai@gmail.comhttps://doi.org/10.34019/2318-34462318-34462318-3446opendoar:2024-05-03T12:01:09.933438Rónai - Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora (UFJF)true
