这篇文章考察了一部16世纪亚美尼亚手稿中关于亚历山大大帝和大流士三世的30kafas(单音节短诗)。这些诗歌的选集从数百首与亚美尼亚人亚历山大·罗曼斯一起和分开流传的诗歌中挑选出来,创造了一套独特的诗歌,描述了两位国王之间的遭遇和他们命运的转折。在探索和挑选这个过程中,我们可以瞥见亚历山大的多样性,他故事的可塑性,以及在这部手稿中影响卡法的关于命运的更广泛的想法。本文直接介入卡法,提出了一种与卡法接触的方法,将中世纪的放任和现代的切分诗歌结合在一起,以更深入地了解它们的变化性。
This article examines 30kafas (short, monorhymed poems) about Alexander the Great and Darius III in a sixteenth-century Armenian manuscript. The anthologist of these poems drew from many hundreds circulating alongside and separately from the ArmenianAlexander Romanceto create a unique set, describing the encounters between the two kings and the turning wheel of their fates. In probing—and picking up—this process of selection, we can glimpse the multiplicity of Alexander, the malleability of his story, and wider ideas about fate that informed thekafas in this manuscript. Intervening in thekafas directly, this article presents a method of engaging with them, bringing medieval permissiveness and modern cut-up poetry together to more intimately understand their mutability.
