« Between rhetorics and spectacle : about enargeia and phantasia in the ancient scholia to Pindar » Visual notations, which refer to important ethical and aesthetical issues, are at the core of Pindar’s poetic art. I study here the dialogue between ancient scholia (and Eustathius’ introduction), as (philological, rhetorical, philosophical) secondary writings, and the poetic text, which is the trace of a spectacular rite based upon the interaction of actual vision and imagination : on the one hand, in a case study, about vision in the 7th Olympian and its scholia (grammatical analysis, paraphrase, symbolic exegesis …) ; on the other hand, in a general study of spectacular vision, astonishment, enargeia and phantasia in the ancient commentaries, which build up an enigmatic and efficient figure of Pindar as a poet.
