Unlike previous critics of the Delphic Oracle, who have viewed divination as the slave of politics, I treat Delphic divination as a persuasive religious practice, capable of addressing human and societal needs. To this end, I trace the "life" of an oracle through four stages as it journeys from Delphi to its final resting place in the written record: the consultation at Delphi, the recitation and use of oracles in society at large, the transmission of oracles and of tales about oracles, the written record of such tales. I analyze the historical and religious dimensions of these four stages.Subjects--Topical Terms:

Unlike previous critics of the Delphic Oracle, who have viewed divination as the slave of politics, I treat Delphic divination as a persuasive religious practice, capable of addressing human and societal needs. To this end, I trace the "life" of an oracle through four stages as it journeys from Delphi to its final resting place in the written record: the consultation at Delphi, the recitation and use of oracles in society at large, the transmission of oracles and of tales about oracles, the written record of such tales. I analyze the historical and religious dimensions of these four stages.

Chapter one explores the consultation at Delphi. Using comparative anthropology on spirit possession and divination, I assess whether there is any ritual logic that might dictate who speaks for Apollo and how his voice is distinguished from its human embodiment. I conclude that the Pythia alone, because of and not despite her possession, was authorized to speak for Apollo, and that writing was not employed at Delphi in the exchange of questions and answers.

In chapter two, I examine the oral recitation of oracles outside Delphi in order to understand more concretely how divination worked. These performances give evidence that Delphic divination was a creative, self-reflective process, in which oracles structured debate and enabled individuals and city-states to make decisions and act upon them.

In chapter three, I use theories borrowed from oral poetics in order to evaluate how oracular performances influence the written record of oracles. I develop the concept of "oracular flexibility" and I consider how the belief in divination informed oracular performances. From this vantage point, I review the question of authenticity.

In chapter four, I study "fictional" oracular tales, that is, those with well-defined plots and well-defined protagonists. While these tales have been dismissed as irrelevant fictions, I assess how they pertain to Delphic divination and archaic Greek notions about linguistic meaning and interpretation.
