1, For ‘The Song of Daskaloyiannis’, cf, ‘Homer and Cretan Heroic Poetry’,
by J. A. Notopoulos (American Journal of Philosophy, 1952). Most of the extracts
in this chapter are translated from B, Laourdas’s Greek edition (Heraklion,
1947); but the invocation (‘God give me thought etc.’) is from a version
recorded by Professor Notopoulos at Askyphou in 1952-3. A thirty-line fragment
of this version can be found in Modern Creek Heroic Oral Poetry, the booklet
which accompanies a 12-inch LP of Professor Notopoulos’s recordings (Ethnic
Folkways Library album FE 4468).

Heroic Oral Poetry (accompanying Ethnic Folkways Library album FE 4468).
