Definition von pindaric ode im Englisch Englisch wörterbuch

An ode in the form used by Pindar, consisting of a series of triads in which the strophe and antistrophe have the same stanza form and the epode has a different form. Ceremonious poem in the manner of Pindar, who employed a triadic, or three-part, structure consisting of a strophe (two or more lines repeated as a unit) followed by a metrically harmonious antistrophe and an epode (summary line) in a different metre. The three parts correspond to movements onstage by the chorus in Greek drama. After the 16th-century publication of Pindar's choral odes in the epinicion (celebratory) form, poets writing in various vernaculars created irregular rhymed odes that suggest his style. Such odes in English are among the greatest poems in the language, including John Dryden's "Alexander's Feast," William Wordsworth's "Ode: Intimations of Immortality," and John Keats's "Ode on a Grecian Urn

an ode form used by Pindar; has triple groups of triple units
