| Description | In hierdie artikel word ’n analise van T.T. Cloete se gedig ‘Achilles se skild’ uit die bundel onversadig (2011) gemaak. Die doel is eerstens om die verhaalgegewe binne die konteks van Homeros se Ilias te plaas en die simboliese betekenis van die afbeeldings wat daarop verskyn, te verreken. Daarna word Cloete se omdigting van die teks ondersoek deur dit met die bronteks te vergelyk om aan te toon hoe die digter die Ilias-gegewe toe-eien en verwerk om ’n lewens- en wêreldbeeld te skep wat in lyn met die res van die bundel onversadig en Cloete se digterlike oeuvre as sodanig is. The aim of this article is to analise the poem ‘Achilles se skild’ (The shield of Achilles) by T.T. Cloete, from his volume of poetry onversadig (unquenched) (2011). The poem, as narrated by Cloete, will be compared with the original text as we find it in the Iliad of Homer. In the first section of the article the symbolic meaning of the shield which Hephaistos makes, will be explored. Subsequently it will be demonstrated how Cloete appropriates and adapts the material from the Iliad to forge a philosophy of life which is in correspondance with the rest of the volume of poetry onversadig and his poetic oeuvre. | |
