Headword:
*(hge/loxos
Adler number: eta,36
Translated headword: Hegelokhos, Hegelochos, Hegelochus
Vetting Status: high
Translation: A tragic actor. "And we can say, like Hegelochos, 'for out of the billows I see again a weasel [
galh=n]'." In reference to those avoiding unpleasantness. For this Hegelochus was acting in
Euripides'
Orestes[1] when he ran out of breath on this line, "for out of the billows I see again a calm [
galh/n']" (i.e.
galh/nhn in the plural[2]) and was instantly seen to have destroyed the synaloiphe.[3]
Plato too derides this man for having a displeasing voice.[4] [
Aristophanes goes on to say] "the Empousa is gone."[5]
