Attic

Translated from Greek, atticus means “resident of Athens.” Trying to figure out and understand who the Attics were is an extremely difficult task due to the small volume of ancient Greek literature and the lack of accurate information about this concept in the biographies of individual poets of Attica.

Attiki - inhabitants of ancient Athens, refers to the Ionian dialectic of the eastern area of ​​the Greek language. The most famous representatives of ancient Attic poetry: Euripides (480-406 BC), Sophocles (c. 496-c. 408 BC), Euripides (c. - 925 BC. ), Anaxagoras (IV century BC).

The so-called “ancestor” is Socrates from Athens. Socrates is a philosopher and student of Plato. It is thanks to Socrates that we have many famous aphorisms about the meaning of human life. It is also worth noting that the list of famous Athenian poets does not include authors such as Euripides or Sophocles, who lived and worked at different times in different periods of the development of human culture. Among them, the most famous is Euripidus, who is known to us from the tragedy “Medea”. However, he did not live in the capital of the Greek democracies. He was born into a poor family in northern Greece (in what is now Macedonia) and died at the age of 70 in Chaeronea, South Africa. Euripides, also known as the "sad poet", has been recognized as the greatest tragic poet of ancient Greece. The famous tragedy “Medea”, which is dedicated to the love story of a beautiful woman for a stranger and the war of the Achaeans against the Colchians, was found during excavations at Hernea at the beginning of the 20th century. The text of the work itself was partially found: about 30 fragments have been preserved, from which it is clear that the author took a personal story as a basis. More than 120 works are commonly attributed to Euripides, but only nine poems are known to exist. They are found in four books, his writings being called original or Pindaric. These verses are different from those also attributed to Euripedes, "along with others as pure iambic" - a metrical attribute of classical Greek sonnets. Although the works of Euryphes can also be found on papyri (they date back to the 20th-13th centuries BC). Euride is a character with a unique gift for translation: literary works were often written in trochaic meter, which is characterized by alternating iambic and trochaic depending on the size of the word.
