The presentation of space in Herodas’ poems has received frequent attention in Classical scholarship. It is relevant for the vexed question of the mimes’ performance, but also for the characterization of the people who populate these poems. This article shows that the transition between public and private space, between an interior room and the world beyond is a relevant factor not only in the first Mimiamb (where it has occasionally been noted), but in all of Herodas’ mimes. Spatial boundaries are skillfully and consistently employed to support the portrait of the characters. This technique would be particularly effective in a performance with few props or even when recited without a mimic presentation on stage. |
