GUEVARA DE ALVAREZ, María Estela. Afinidad entre semejantes: sentido y proyección de una paroimía homérica (od. 17.218). Synthesis (La Plata) [online]. 2008, vol.15, pp.59-75. ISSN 0328-1205.

Od. 17.218 establishes the most ancient record of the Greek proverb refering to affinity on similarities and it was remembered several times under a great variety of statements in the Greek paroemiographic tradition. This article proposes a study on the already mentioned proverb, which at the beginning presents a review of the ancient concept of paroimia with a special reference to its link with the concept of gnome. Following this there is an analysis of the Homeric proverb and the features inherent to its insertion in the text of Odyssey. Finally the projection of the proverb is examined in the work of Greek authors and in the collections of Corpus Paroemiographorum Graecorum.

Palabras clave : Homer; Odyssey; paroimia; gnome; Likeness; Friendship.
