Abstract
En este trabajo, intentamos buscar las razones por las que Orfeo continúa apareciendo en calidad de poeta mítico en los manuales europeos e hispanos de literatura griega a lo largo del siglo XIX . Las razones deben buscarse en la Bibliotheca Graeca (1790) de J.A. Fabricius, que aporta los contenidos sobre la figura y las obras atribuidas al poeta, y la nueva historia de la literatura griega (1831) de F.A. Wolf, que confiere a Orfeo un lugar preferente en la etapa prehomérica. Poco a poco, la figura de Orfeo irá cediendo su lugar a los “Poetas órficos”, lo que implica la diseminación de las obras órficas en etapas posteriores de la literatura griega
The main aim of this work is to seek the reasons of Orpheus’ appearance as a mythical poet in the European and Spanish handbooks of Greek literature during the 19 TH century. These reasons are looked for in two principal sources such as J.A. Fabricius’ Bibliotheca Graeca (1790) that provides the contents linked to the poet’s figure and the works attributed to him, as well as the new history of Greek literature (1831) by F.A. Wolf, where Orpheus is given the preferential place in the pre- Homeric stage of literature. Gradually, Orpheus as a mythical poet gives up his place to the “Orphic poets”. That fact implies the dissemination of the orphic works in later stages of Greek literature.
