The oral history of Indigenous people in Canada has been recognized by mainstream legal systems in Canada over the past few decades as being of fundamental importance in court cases and negotiations with Indigenous peoples. As Indigenous peoples further exercise their right to self-government, they will continue drawing their oral traditions to define and develop their autonomous legal system. This anthology attempts to collect a wide variety of materials that embody many perspectives. It attempts to place those materials within a conceptual framework that might be helpful in looking at Indigenous oral history, and indeed oral history generally. That framework includes viewing oral history in three dimensions of time - testimony about recent events, oral histories that encompass an individual's lifetime, and oral traditions that are passed down from generation to generation. The framework includes looking at oral history in the context of how many cultures and traditions incorporate oral history in their legal systems and cultures. It asks both how values and methods differ among communities and how they reflect widespread or virtually universal tendencies. The framework also invites the reader to consider the different ways in which oral evidence can or should be reinforced or qualified by references to other sources of information, such as other oral evidence, documentary testimony and physical evidence of various kinds. It is hoped that this collection will be of assistance to others in studying or developing their own teaching materials in this dynamic area.

“…De hecho, es de los Trabajos y no de la Teogonía de donde Hesíodo extrae sus pasajes más representativos para enfrentarse a Homero en el Certamen, mientras que éste, por su parte, selecciona unos versos de la Ilíada que, lejos de ser considerados por la crítica moderna lo más representativo de su poesía, han sido incluso considerados espurios 17 . En una reciente tesis doctoral leída en la Universidad de Leiden con el título Hesiod: The other poet, Koning (2010) plantea un acercamiento a la figura de Hesíodo, 14 Entre los trabajos recientes que pretenden reconstruir la idea que de Homero tenían los antiguos destacan Graziosi (2002: 164-200), que en el capítulo «Homer's relationship to other poets», trata sobre la relación de Homero con otros poetas, entre los que se encuentra, naturalmente, Hesíodo; Rutherford (1996: 20-24;Hunter (2004); Zeitlin (2001); Lamberton (1996); Graziosi (2008). 15 Por ejemplo, los oradores áticos del siglo IV no citan jamás la Teogonía y sí los Trabajos, como puede verse en Perlman (1964: 163).…”

RESUMENEl presente artículo estudia el uso por parte de Himerio de unas palabras de Hesíodo (μελέτη δέ τοι ἔργον ὀφέλλει, Op. 412) que son atribuidas por el orador a un «honorable poeta». La falta de atribución expresa podría deberse a que Himerio no conocía al autor de la cita o a una confusión con Homero. Para tratar de contestar a esta cuestión estudiamos, en primer lugar, la cita en sí y sus apariciones en el resto de la literatura griega; a continuación, el modo de citar de Himerio y los autores que maneja y, por último, la posibilidad de que se diese esa confusión entre Homero y Hesíodo, teniendo en cuenta la recepción en la antigüedad de cada uno de ellos.Palabras clave: Himerio, Homero, Hesíodo, cita, recepción. ABSTRACTThe aim of this article is to analyze Himerius' use of Hesiodic words μελέτη δέ τοι ἔργον ὀφέλλει (Op. 412). Himerius does not mention Hesiod, but says these words belong to a «distinguished poet». This lack of information about the author could be explained by Himerius' ignorance of the author of his quotation or by a confusion with Homer. To answer to this question we will examine fi rst the quotation itself and its other occurrences in Greek Literature; then, how does Himerius quote other authors and which authors are quoted by him. Finally, we will explore the possibility of a confusion between Homer and Hesiod and their reception in antiquity.

“…The popular currency of such medical ideas is difficult to determine, and the undifferentiated understanding of mani/ a displayed by the father in Lucian's The Disinherited 33. For the enduring popularity of Homer, see Lamberton 1997, Farrell 2004and Kenney 1982 34 probably typified the thinking of most people. Nonetheless, some writers such as Aulus Cornelius Celsus did present medical ideas to a wider, educated audience through the popular genre of the encyclopaedia, and their writings may well tell us something relevant about perceptions and treatments of those deemed mentally ill by a man such as Pilate.…”
