their poetry took wing in the moment were reduced to print only centuries later ruled their word choice as much as the gods As a 21-year-old graduate student of Greek at the University of California at Berkeley the son of an Oakland pharmacist and the first of his family to attend college flirted with an early version of this idea in the summer of 1923 It became a succinct master’s thesis that soon was consigned to the library stacks and forgotten refined and expanded his idea into an intricately argued doctoral thesis after a year on the faculty of a small midwestern college as instructor in Greek and Latin and tutor in the Division of Ancient Languages He remained at Harvard for the rest of his brief life which ended in 1935 with the blast of a revolver in a Los Angeles hotel room: At the time it was judged a tragic accident would see the shooting as his wife’s doing a moment’s raging vengeance for supposed marital cruelties But the ideas that consumed Parry transcend the doubts surrounding his death His doctoral thesis was a nice piece of scholarship exhaustive and respected; yet while he’d theorized about the work of oral poets Parry had never actually heard one speak or sing at the suggestion of a judge at his thesis defense in Paris and Bosnians still plied its villages and mountain byways with the songs and stories of their own distinct oral literature Parry recorded hundreds of mostly illiterate singers who to the rhythms of one-stringed instruments known as gusles they sang the same songs as other guslars did yet were never quite the same or to some urgency or impatience in his audience: This time new language bubbling up in obedience to the poetic rhythms of his tradition And his idea pushed well beyond the merely fertile or “suggestive”; down the years generations of Homeric scholars had done plenty of that when he and his wife lived in a little pension in Sceaux outside Paris Marian would remember Milman forever upstairs The epithets were that most familiar marker of the Homeric epics Each with its distinctive sound rhythms in the original Greek akin to English’s stressed or unstressed syllables they could be seized by the singer as he sang to fill a niche in the dactylic hexametric line To generations of skeptical classicists Parry all but proved that they appeared when and where they did not to advance the story but to sweetly fill the sung line Parry may not have made the impact he did but for Albert Lord his assistant on his second trip to Yugoslavia young Lord was not Parry’s “colleague”; he helped set up the recording equipment collected the aluminum disks on which they were saved Lord felt the awful weight of his mentor’s work and a quarter-century later published his own magnum opus which enriched and deepened oral poetry beyond all Parry had begun The years have brought challenge and reinterpretation to Parry’s big idea But if Homer may yet be called author of the Odyssey he did not write it as they did; after Parry there are different ways to “write.”   Robert Kanigel’s biography of Milman Parry is Hearing Homer’s Song He is working on a book about the Franco-American excavations of the 1930s that yielded the Antioch Mosaics There was plenty of food and entertainment enjoyed Sunday during the Taste of Serbia Food and Music Festival at St Basil of Ostrog Serbian Orthodox Church in Mettawa Sunday was the second day of the annual fest that featured food lovers enjoying pit-roasted lamb and pig apple and cherry strudel and rolled cheese strudels bookstore and presentations about Serbian culture and traditional dance Organizers say it is one of the largest ethnic festivals in Lake County and northern Illinois By JULIE MOULT FOR MAILONLINE Updated: 07:57 BST The mother of a baby who died following a botched assisted delivery was so rough during the delivery she feared her baby's head would be 'pulled off' said in a statement read to the GMC's 'fitness to practice' hearing that she did not believe her daughter could ever have survived the birth at St Peter's Hospital in Chertsey fled the UK and returned to his Bosnia after he was arrested on suspicion of manslaughter following the death of Hollie Hope Dinning in May 2002 Moments after the baby was delivered Mrs Freeman said she was thinking: "Why isn't she breathing what has he done?"
