INDEX OF NAMES

Content

The Library provides the fullest inventory of mythological characters and genealogies to be found in any single ancient source; in view of this, it was considered desirable that the index should be as full as possible, even if many figures may be obscure or otherwise unrecorded. All personal names are included, except for those listed in the following five catalogues:

The Nereids, p. 29.

The fifty daughters of Danaos and fifty sons of Aigyptos, and their respective mothers, p. 61–2.

The fifty daughters of Thespios and their sons by Heracles, pp. 91–2.

The fifty sons of Lycaon, p. 114(one name missing).

The suitors of Penelope, p. 168–9 (one hundred and twenty-nine names).

Since virtually none of these figures appears in any other connection (and for the most part these catalogues are genealogical blind alleys), it is improbable that anyone would seek them individually in an index; but the few who do appear elsewhere are included.

The Spelling and Pronunciation of Greek Nantes

With a few exceptions (which are cross-referenced), the names are given in their original Greek form; please see p. xxix above for some brief remarks on this matter. It should therefore be remembered that the Greek diphthongs aiand oiwill be found rather than their Latin equivalents aeand oe(thus Aigeus and Oineus rather than Aegeus and Oeneus), and that Greek eiwill not be replaced by a long i(so if a name like Chiron or Tiresias seems to be missing, it should be sought as Cheiron or Teiresias).

In ordinary speech, it is usual for English speakers to pronounce Greek names in the way that seem most natural without attempting to reproduce the exact pronunciation of the ancient Greeks. This conventional (or compromise) pronunciation presents no great problems if a few rules are observed:

Vowels:There are no mute vowels. In particular, a final -eand the ein final -esshould always be sounded, as in familiar names like Aphrodite and Socrates.

In Greek, ae, oe, and ooare never diphthongs, and each vowel should be sounded separately (e.g. in Danae, Iphinoe, Acheloos).

Of diphthongs, aishould be pronounced as in high, auas in how, and oias in boil;and euis commonly pronounced as in eulogy, or when followed by an r, as in Europe.

In names, eiis usually a diphthong, which can be pronounced as in pay(e.g. in Teiresias, Deianeira), but not always (especially at the end of names, e.g. Endeis, the Nereids).

Consonants: Cis used for Greek kappa (although when transliterating Greek it is usual to use a k). This is properly a hard c(or k), but where it seems natural for an English speaker, it is often pronounced as a soft c(as in Alcibiades or Eurydice).

Chis used for Greek chi, which represents an aspirated k. In names, e.g. Achilles, it can be pronounced like a k. It should notbe pronounced like chin chapter.

G is properly hard as in gallery, but again, where it seems natural (as with the name Aigeus) it is often pronounced as in gin.

N.B. Genealogical indications, most commonly a patronymic, are included for practical convenience, but it must be remembered that there are often conflicting traditions, and if it is stated, for instance, that somebody is the mother of a particular person, that may be only one of several traditions recorded (whether in the present work or elsewhere).

Information not derived from the text is bracketed.

Where there are more than two entries under a particular name, bold typeis used to distinguish those which refer to mythical stories or passages which give biographical (rather than purely genealogical) information; and generally, where an entry is italicized, this indicates that it refers to the inclusion of the character in one of the four main heroic catalogues:

Those who joined the hunt for the Calydonian boar, pp. 40–1.

The Argonauts, pp. 49–50.

Helen’s suitors, p. 121.
